Por otra parte, investigadores de la Universidad de Bristol, utilizando el listado de los países acogidos al “Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR) of the World Bank”, en el estudio llamado “Volcano hazard and exposure in GFDRR priority countries and risk mitigation Measures”, desarrollaron una metodología para la evaluación del riesgo volcánico (Metodología de la Universidad de Bristol, MUB). En ésta se estima el nivel de peligro, el nivel de incerteza según la disponibilidad de información y el índice de exposición de la población. El riesgo de cada volcán se estima de la combinación del peligro y la exposición, en un área espacial determinada. De acuerdo a lo anterior, el presente estudio consistió en realizar la evaluación del riesgo volcánico a los 90 volcanes activos de Chile con la mencionada metodología y comparar los resultados con aquellos obtenidos por SERNAGEOMIN con el fin de realizar un análisis integrado de los resultados de ambas metodologías que permite establecer para cada volcán la mejor metodología para evaluar el riesgo volcánico asociado. Aplicando la metodología de la Universidad de Bristol, se han obtenido cuatro volcanes con un nivel de riesgo medio (Villarrica, Calbuco, Fui e Isla de Pascua), mientras que los 86 volcanes activos restantes han sido categorizados con un nivel de riesgo bajo, sin tener volcanes en categoría de riesgo alto. Mientras que en la metodología NVEWS-SERNAGEOMIN son 12 los volcanes que tienen un nivel de riesgo muy alto, 19 con un nivel de riesgo alto, 17 volcanes están en la categoría de riesgo medio, 15 tienen un nivel de riesgo bajo y 27 volcanes activos están en la categoría de bajo riesgo. Estos resultados indican las evidentes diferencias entre ambas metodologías lo que ha motivado el desarrollo de este trabajo, para poder determinar la que mejor se puede aplicar al contexto volcánico de Chile. Finalmente se propone utilizar la metodología NVEWS-SERNAGEOMIN para evaluar el ranking de riesgo, la MUB para determinar las áreas de peligro excluyendo aquellas zonas de altas pendientes y además se propone realizar una adaptación de la MUB al contexto volcánico de Chile, reasignando nuevos puentajes de peligro y vulnerabilidad mendiante el proceso de análisis jerarquico (PAJ). i II.- Tabla de

Nr. 040546 This work is dedicated to my uncle Eugenio Marcora who led my interest in Earth Sciences and Astronomy during my childhood Abstract The aim of this PhD work is to study how earthquakes could favour new eruptions, focusing the attention on earthquake-induced static effects in three different case sites. As a first case site, I studied how earthquake-induced crustal dilatation could trigger new eruptions at mud volcanoes in Azerbaijan. Particular attention was then devoted to contribute to the understanding of how earthquake-induced magma pathway unclamping could favour new volcanic activity along the Alaska-Aleutian and Chilean volcanic arcs, where 9 seismic events with Mw ≥ 8 occurred in the last century. Regarding mud volcanoes, I studied the effects of two earthquakes of Mw 6.18 and 6.08 occurred in the Caspian Sea on November 25, 2000 close to Baku city, Azerbaijan. A total of 33 eruptions occurred at 24 mud volcanoes within a maximum distance of 108 km from the epicentres in the five years following the earthquakes. Results show that crustal dilatation might have triggered only 7 eruptions at a maximum distance of about 60 km from the epicentres and within 3 years. Dynamic rather than static strain is thus likely to have been the dominating “promoting” factor because it affected all the studied unrested volcanoes and its magnitude was much larger.

    Presented at “Short Course on Geothermal Drilling, Resource Development and Power Plants”, organized by UNU-GTP and LaGeo, in Santa Tecla, El Salvador, January 16-22, 2011. GEOTHERMAL TRAINING PROGRAMME LaGeo S.A. de C.V. GEOTHERMAL ACTIVITY AND DEVELOPMENT IN SOUTH AMERICA: SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE STATUS IN BOLIVIA, CHILE, ECUADOR AND PERU Ingimar G. Haraldsson United Nations University Geothermal Training Programme Orkustofnun, Grensasvegi 9, 108 Reykjavik ICELAND [email protected] ABSTRACT South America holds vast stores of geothermal energy that are largely unexploited. These resources are largely the product of the convergence of the South American tectonic plate and the Nazca plate that has given rise to the Andes mountain chain, with its countless volcanoes. High-temperature geothermal resources in Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador and Peru are mainly associated with the volcanically active regions, although low temperature resources are also found outside them. All of these countries have a history of geothermal exploration, which has been reinvigorated with recent changes in global energy prices and the increased emphasis on renewables to combat global warming. The paper gives an overview of their main regions of geothermal activity and the latest developments in the geothermal sector are reviewed. 1. INTRODUCTION South America has abundant geothermal energy resources. In 1999, the Geothermal Energy Association estimated the continent’s potential for electricity generation from geothermal resources to be in the range of 3,970-8,610 MW, based on available information and assuming the use of technology available at that time (Gawell et al., 1999). Subsequent studies have put the potential much higher, as a preliminary analysis of Chile alone assumes a generation potential of 16,000 MW for at least 50 years from geothermal fluids with temperatures exceeding 150°C, extracted from within a depth of 3,000 m (Lahsen et al., 2010).

  • Chilean Notes, 1962-1963
    CHILEAN NOTES ' CHILEAN NOTES, 1962-1963 BY EVELIO ECHEVARRfA C. (Three illustrations: nos. 2I-23) HE mountaineering seasons of I 962 and I 963 have seen an increase in expeditionary activity beyond the well-trodden Central Andes of Chile. This activity is expected to increase in the next years, particularly in Bolivia and Patagonia. In the Central Andes, \vhere most of the mountaineering is concen­ trated, the following first ascents were reported for the summer months of I962: San Augusto, I2,o6o ft., by M. Acufia, R. Biehl; Champafiat, I3,I90 ft., by A. Diaz, A. Figueroa, G. and P. de Pablo; Camanchaca (no height given), by G. Fuchloger, R. Lamilla, C. Sepulveda; Los Equivo­ cados, I3,616 ft., by A. Ducci, E. Eglington; Puente Alto, I4,764 ft., by F. Roulies, H. Vasquez; unnamed, I4,935 ft., by R. Biehl, E. Hill, IVI. V ergara; and another unnamed peak, I 5,402 ft., by M. Acufia, R. Biehl. Besides the first ascent of the unofficially named peak U niversidad de Humboldt by the East German Expedition, previously reported by Mr. T. Crombie, there should be added to the credit of the same party the second ascent of Cerro Bello, I7,o6o ft. (K. Nickel, F. Rudolph, M. Zielinsky, and the Chilean J. Arevalo ), and also an attempt on the un­ climbed North-west face of Marmolejo, 20,0I3 ft., frustrated by adverse weather and technical conditions of the ice. In the same area two new routes were opened: Yeguas Heladas, I5,7I5 ft., direct by the southern glacier, by G.

  • Appendix A. Supplementary Material to the Manuscript
    Appendix A. Supplementary material to the manuscript: The role of crustal and eruptive processes versus source variations in controlling the oxidation state of iron in Central Andean magmas 1. Continental crust beneath the CVZ Country Rock The basement beneath the sampled portion of the CVZ belongs to the Paleozoic Arequipa- Antofalla terrain – a high temperature metamorphic terrain with abundant granitoid intrusions that formed in response to Paleozoic subduction (Lucassen et al., 2000; Ramos et al., 1986). In Northern Chile and Northwestern Argentina this Paleozoic metamorphic-magmatic basement is largely homogeneous and felsic in composition, consistent with the thick, weak, and felsic properties of the crust beneath the CVZ (Beck et al., 1996; Fig. A.1). Neodymium model ages of exposed Paleozoic metamorphic-magmatic basement and sediments suggest a uniform Proterozoic protolith, itself derived from intrusions and sedimentary rock (Lucassen et al., 2001). AFC Model Parameters Pervasive assimilation of continental crust in the Central Andean ignimbrite magmas is well established (Hildreth and Moorbath, 1988; Klerkx et al., 1977; Fig. A.1) and has been verified by detailed analysis of radiogenic isotopes (e.g. 87Sr/86Sr and 143Nd/144Nd) on specific systems within the CVZ (Kay et al., 2011; Lindsay et al., 2001; Schmitt et al., 2001; Soler et al., 2007). Isotopic results indicate that the CVZ magmas are the result of mixing between a crustal endmember, mainly gneisses and plutonics that have a characteristic crustal signature of high 87Sr/86Sr and low 145Nd/144Nd, and the asthenospheric mantle (low 87Sr/86Sr and high 145Nd/144Nd; Fig. 2). In Figure 2, we model the amount of crustal assimilation required to produce the CVZ magmas that are targeted in this study.

  • Remobilization of Crustal Carbon May Dominate Volcanic Arc Emissions
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ESC Publications - Cambridge Univesity Submitted Manuscript: Confidential Title: Remobilization of crustal carbon may dominate volcanic arc emissions Authors: Emily Mason1, Marie Edmonds1,*, Alexandra V Turchyn1 Affiliations: 1 Department of Earth Sciences, University of Cambridge, Downing Street, Cambridge CB2 3EQ *Correspondence to: [email protected]. Abstract: The flux of carbon into and out of Earth’s surface environment has implications for Earth’s climate and habitability. We compiled a global dataset for carbon and helium isotopes from volcanic arcs and demonstrated that the carbon isotope composition of mean global volcanic gas is considerably heavier, at -3.8 to -4.6 ‰, than the canonical Mid-Ocean-Ridge Basalt value of -6.0 ‰. The largest volcanic emitters outgas carbon with higher δ13C and are located in mature continental arcs that have accreted carbonate platforms, indicating that reworking of crustal limestone is an important source of volcanic carbon. The fractional burial of organic carbon is lower than traditionally determined from a global carbon isotope mass balance and may have varied over geological time, modulated by supercontinent formation and breakup. One Sentence Summary: Reworking of crustal carbon dominates volcanic arc outgassing, decreasing the estimate of fractional organic carbon burial. Main Text: The core, mantle and crust contain 90% of the carbon on Earth (1), with the remaining 10% partitioned between the ocean, atmosphere and biosphere. Due to the relatively short residence time of carbon in Earth’s surface reservoirs (~200,000 years), the ocean, atmosphere and biosphere may be considered a single carbon reservoir on million-year timescales.

The data compiled from the Cascades and Aleutians are compared to geologic, geochemical and geophysical information from productive volcanic arc centers in the other parts of the world. Seven other volcanic arc segments from around the globe are used in this comparative study. Preliminary findings from data evaluation indicate that there are systematic changes in structural setting, from an extensional influ- ence south of Mt. Hood (in part due to encroachment of the back arc in the southern half) to more compressional north of Mt. Hood. Comparison with productive geothermal fields around the world shows that large fumarolic areas are associated with most >240°C power-producing geothermal systems outside the US arcs (e.g., Kamojang, Indonesia, among others), whereas there is a general absence of large fumarolic areas in the Cascades and Aleutian arcs, aside from of the Lassen volcano area.

The case of the Callaqui volcano in the Pehuenche ancestral geography of Alto Biobío Recibido el 08 de mayo de 2020, aceptado el 08 de junio de 2020 Claudio Contreras Véliz* Resumen En Alto Biobío, área cordillerana del centro sur de Chile, habita parte del pueblo originario Pehuenche, cuyas comunidades o lob mapu, se emplazan alrededor del volcán Callaqui (‘Callavquen’ en la lengua local, que significa ‘celoso de los hom- bres’). El volcán en el último tiempo ha sido monitoreado por la institucionalidad vulcano- lógica y de emergencias del país (SERNAGEOMIN, ONEMI y Universidades), que busca generar planes y acciones para gestionar la alarma de una posible erupción, y advertir a través de un semáforo y escalas de riesgos, la peligrosidad que representa para la población local. No obstante, los pehuenches, habitantes ancestrales del área de influencia del volcán, han convivido con él de una manera intrínseca por genera- ciones, y le han asociado gran parte de sus actividades económicas, sociales y cultu- rales, otorgándole un sentido protector desde sus propias percepciones respecto del macizo montañoso. * Magíster en Geografía con mención en intervención ambiental y territorial de la Universidad Acade- mia de Humanismo Cristiano (PIIT-UAHC), [email protected] 73 Vol.
