    • Béjar - Pizarro, Marta; Socquet, Anne; Armijo, Rolando; Carrizo, Daniel; Genrich, Jeff; Simons, Mark (Macmillan Publishers Limited, 2013-04-28)
      Segmentation can influence the extent of earthquake rupture and event magnitude(1): large megathrust earthquakes result from total rupture of relatively continuous segments of the subduction interface(2-5). Segmentation ...
    • Béjar Pizarro, M.; Carrizo, Daniel; Socquet, Anne; Armijo, R.; Barrientos, Sergio; Bondoux, F.; Bonvalot, S.; Campos Muñoz, Jaime; Comte Selman, Diana; Chabalier, J. B. de; Charade, O.; Delorme, A.; Gabalda, G.; Galetzka, J.; Genrich, J.; Nercessian, A.; Olcay, M.; Ortega, F.; Ortega, I.; Remy, D.; Ruegg, J. C.; Simons, M.; Valderas, C.; Vigny, C. (2010)
      The Mw 7.7 2007 November 14 earthquake had an epicentre located close to the city of Tocopilla, at the southern end of a known seismic gap in North Chile. Through modelling of Global Positioning System (GPS) and radar ...
    • Armijo, Rolando; Lacassin, Robin; Coudurier Curveur, Aurélie; Carrizo, Daniel (Elsevier, 2015)
      The largest tectonic relief breaking the Earth's surface (13 km vertically) is at the subduction margin of the Andes, which generates routinely megathrust earthquakes (Mw > 8.5) and drives the paradigmatic Andean orogen. ...
    • González, Gabriel; Gerbault, Muriel; Martinod, Joseph; Cembrano, José; Carrizo, Daniel; Allmendinger, Richard; Espina, Jacob (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2008)
      Reverse faults in northern Chile have formed 20-300 m high scarps that contain open fractures which occur in a zone of 20-1600 m wide. Two-dimensional numerical models were used to explore the geometrical and mechanical ...
    • Ryder, Isabelle; Rietbrock, Andreas; Kelson, Keith; Bürgmann, Roland; Floyd, Michael; Socquet, Anne; Vigny, Christophe; Carrizo, Daniel (WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2012-03)
      The Mw 8.8 Maule earthquake occurred off the coast of central Chile on 2010 February 27 and was the sixth largest earthquake to be recorded instrumentally. This subduction zone event was followed by thousands of aftershocks ...
    • Moreno, M.; Melnick, D.; Rosenau, M.; Báez, J.; Klotz, J.; Oncken, O.; Tassara, A.; Chen, J.; Bataille, K.; Bevis, M.; Bolte, Jérome; Vigny, C.; Socquet, Anne; Brooks, B.; Ryder, I.; Grund, V.; Smalley, B.; Carrizo, Daniel; Bartsch, M.; Hase, H. (Elsevier, 2012)
      The Maule earthquake of 27th February 2010 (Mw=8.8) affected ~500 km of the Nazca-South America plate boundary in south-central Chile producing spectacular crustal deformation. Here, we present a detailed estimate of ...
