  • Late Quaternary Morphodynamics in the Quebrada De Purmamarca, NW Argentina
    Quaternary Science Journal GEOZON SCIENCE MEDIA Volume 59 / Number 1–2 / 2010 / 21–35 / DOI 10.3285/eg.59.1-2.02 ISSN 0424-7116 E&G www.quaternary-science.net Late Quaternary morphodynamics in the Quebrada de Purmamarca, NW Argentina Jan-Hendrik May, Ramiro Daniel Soler Abstract: � This study aims to document the geomorphic, sedimentary and paleopedogenic archives in the Quebrada de Purmamarca.The paleoenvironmental interpretation of these archives and the reconstruction of landscape evolution are mainly based on field observations and geomorphological mapping (May 2008). A series of aggradational terraces mostly consisting of coarse debris- flow deposits are the main focus of this investigation. While the associated cut-and-fill processes are probably the result of an interplay between climatic and tectonic controls, the deposition of the youngest terrace level (> 150 m thickness) may likely be attributed to a drop of the periglacial belt of more than 1000 meters below its modern elevation. For the time after terraceac- cumulation has ceased, the interpretation of alluvial fans, aeolian sand and a well-developed paleosol points to Late Quaternary humidity changes as an important control on landscape evolution. The major phase of downcutting and incision significantly postdates the end of terrace deposition and may have been triggered by markedly increased amounts of monsoonal precipita- tion. Finally, minor humidity changes of possible Holocene age are indicated by paleopedogenic and geomorphic observations on terrace surfaces and along valley slopes.

HISTORICAL EARTHQUAKE In the northeasternCORO Colombia, the northernmost foothills of the Andes are present, whose representatives are 1. LOCATION the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta (SNSM) and the Perija Range. This orogenic system is delimited by three major faults that limit three large basins. In its order from west to east are the Santa Marta Fault that limits the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta with the Lower Magdalena Basin. The Oca Fault that limits with the low basin of the Rancheria River to the north in the south of Guajira Peninsula, and toward the east the Perija – El Tigre Fault that limits with the Maracaibo Basin. Each of these faults have a great size. Since 2008, when the National Seismological Network of Colombia (RSNC) increased its number of seismological stations in this region of Colombia, the recording of surface seismicity that is associated with the tectonic mobility of this orogenic system began. The strong earthquakes in this region do not exceed in magnitude M = 5.5, emphasizing earthquakes with M ≈ 4.5 in average. The origin of the tectonic mobility of this orogenic system obeys to the convergence between the Caribbean Plate and the northwestern corner of South America.

  • Seismic Hazard, Risk, and Design for South America by Mark D
    Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, Vol. 108, No. 2, pp. 781–800, April 2018, doi: 10.1785/0120170002 Seismic Hazard, Risk, and Design for South America by Mark D. Petersen, Stephen C. Harmsen, Kishor S. Jaiswal, Kenneth S. Rukstales, Nicolas Luco, Kathleen M. Haller, Charles S. Mueller, and Allison M. Shumway Abstract We calculate seismic hazard, risk, and design criteria across South America using the latest data, models, and methods to support public officials, sci- entists, and engineers in earthquake risk mitigation efforts. Updated continental scale seismic hazard models are based on a new seismicity catalog, seismicity rate models, evaluation of earthquake sizes, fault geometry and rate parameters, and ground- motion models. Resulting probabilistic seismic hazard maps show peak ground accel- eration, modified Mercalli intensity, and spectral accelerations at 0.2 and 1 s periods for 2%, 10%, and 50% probabilities of exceedance in 50 yrs. Ground shaking soil amplification at each site is calculated by considering uniform soil that is applied in modern building codes or by applying site-specific factors based on VS30 shear- wave velocities determined through a simple topographic proxy technique. We use these hazard models in conjunction with the Prompt Assessment of Global Earth- quakes for Response (PAGER) model to calculate economic and casualty risk. Risk is computed by incorporating the new hazard values amplified by soil, PAGER fra- gility/vulnerability equations, and LandScan 2012 estimates of population exposure. We also calculate building design values using the guidelines established in the build- ing code provisions. Resulting hazard and associated risk is high along the northern and western coasts of South America, reaching damaging levels of ground shaking in Chile, western Argentina, western Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, and in localized areas distributed across the rest of the continent where historical earth- quakes have occurred.

  • Geology and Structural History of the Southwest Precordillera Margin, Northern Mendoza Province, Argentina
    Journal of South American Earth Sciences 14 (2002) 821±835 www.elsevier.com/locate/jsames Geology and structural history of the southwest Precordillera margin, northern Mendoza Province, Argentina C. Gerbia,*, S.M. Roeskea, J.S. Davisb aDepartment of Geology, University of California, One Shields Avenue, Davis, CA 95616, USA bExxonMobil Production Co, 800 Bell Street, Houston, TX 77002, USA Received 1 March 2001; accepted 1 August 2001 Abstract Rocks and structures in the southwest Precordillera terrane, located in western Argentina, constrain the Paleozoic distribution of continents and the development of the western margin of Gondwana. Detailed mapping of an area in the southwest Precordillera allowed identi®cation of several pre-Carboniferous rockunits formed in distinct tectonic environments and were later tectonically juxtaposed. The pre-Carboni- ferous rockunits comprise carbonate metasiltstone, metasandstone, massive diabase, and quartzo-feldspathic gneiss intruded by ultrama®c rocks and layered gabbro. Preliminary structural analysis indicates that the present distribution of units is due to two contractional deformation episodes, an east-directed Devonian ductile event and a west-directed Tertiary brittle event. The metasedimentary rocks, which form the structural base of the area and are part of the western Precordilleran passive margin sequence, were juxtaposed along minor ductile shear zones early in the ductile event. Their contact was then folded during continued ductile deformation; at this time the ultrama®c/layered gabbro complex and the massive diabase were emplaced over the metasedimentary units along narrow ductile shear zones. Brittle deformation, associated with the Andean orogeny, involved open folding, thrust faulting, and reactivation of some ductile features. q 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
