Crustal structure along the southern Central American volcanic front
(American Geophysical Union, 2008-08-20)
Subduction alters continents several ways, including accretion, magmatic addition, mantle wedge serpentinization, and crustal differentiation. These changes affect seismic velocities, so characterizing upper plate crust ...

Tomographic evidence for a subducted seamount beneath the Gulf of Nicoya, Costa Rica: The cause of the 1990 Mw = 7.0 Gulf of Nicoya earthquake
(American Geophysical Union, 2002-04-26)
Tomographic images constrain the existence of a subducted seamount beneath the Gulf of Nicoya, Costa Rica. The subducted seamount is found at a depth of 30 km within the rupture area of the March 25, 1990, Mw = 7.0 Gulf ...
An improved P-wave velocity reference model for Costa Rica
(Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, 2001-01-01)
Derivamos un modelo de velocidad unidimensional para la onda P en Costa Rica, el cual puede servir en la rutina de localización de eventos sísmicos y como modelo de referencia para tomografía en 3 dimensiones. La inversión ...
