Source identification of Middle Age extreme event deposits in the Lesser Antilles using forward numerical modeling of tsunami Louise Cordrie1,2, Audrey Gailler1, and Nathalie Feuillet2 1CEA, France ([email protected]) 2IPGP, Université de Paris, France The arc of the Lesser Antilles is one of the most quiet subduction zone in the world. In this region, the convergence of the Atlantic and the Caribbean plates is low (few mm/year) and most of the seismicity is an intraplate and crustal seismicity. Among the Mw>7 earthquakes recorded in the historical catalog (1690 near Barbuda, 1843 near Guadeloupe, 1867 near the Virgin Islands, 1839 offshore Martinica, 1969 offshore Dominica, 1974 near Antigua), only the 1839 and 1843 events are suspected to be interplate earthquakes. The 1867 Virgin Island earthquake generated an important tsunami with waves of 10m that devastated the closest islands. A tsunami followed the 1843 earthquake but without much damage. These two events are the only known damaging tsunami in this region, but another older one might be added to the list. Indeed, an increasing number of tsunami deposits have been identified in the recent years on several islands of the arc, all of them being around 500 years old (~1450 AD). These deposits are all located in the northern segment of the arc, between Antigua and Puerto-Rico, in Anegada, St-Thomas (Virgin Islands), Anguilla and Scrub islands. There is unfortunately no record and no testimonies of an extreme event at that time. The northern segment of the arc is particularly complex because located at the transition between the Greater Antilles and the Lesser Antilles.It is crossed by the Anegada Passage, a series of faults and basins cutting through the arc, which defines the limit between the Puerto-Rico micro-plate and the Caribbean plate. This passage and the numerous intra-arc fault systems present between the islands are active and likely compensate for the plates motion. The very low slip deficit detected with GPS measurements at the subduction contacts of Puerto-Rico and the Lesser Antilles indicates that the interface from Guadeloupe to Puerto-Rico can be considered as totally uncoupled or holding the characteristics of a very long seismic cycle. A tsunami generated by an extreme event 500 years ago in this region could be related to intra-arc, outer-rise, intraplate or interface fault rupture. The identification of the source would enable a better understanding of the seismic cycle and the dynamic of this part of the arc. This study lists and set models of all the potential faults that could trigger an earthquake in the area encompassing the three islands : Anguilla, Anegada and StThomas. We have created high- resolution bathymetric grids and performed tsunami simulations for each fault model.We uses run-up models to compare the simulated wave heights and run-up distance to all the deposits heights and positions. The magnitudes of our fault models range between 7 and 9, but very few of them generate a strong enough tsunami to match the observed deposits. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

  • 2. Geophysics and the Structure of the Lesser Antilles Forearc1
    2. GEOPHYSICS AND THE STRUCTURE OF THE LESSER ANTILLES FOREARC1 G. K. Westbrook, Department of Geological Sciences, University of Durham and A. Mascle and B. Biju-Duval, Institut Français du Pétrole2 ABSTRACT The Barbados Ridge complex lies east of the Lesser Antilles volcanic arc along the eastern margin of the Caribbean Plate. The complex dates in part from the Eocene, and elements of the arc system have been dated as Late Cretaceous and Late Jurassic, although most of the volcanic rocks date from the Tertiary, particularly the latter part. It is probable that the arc system was moved a considerable distance eastward with respect to North and South America during the Tertiary. The accretionary complex can be divided into zones running parallel to the arc, starting with a zone of initial accre- tion at the front of the complex where sediment is stripped from the ocean floor and the rate of deformation is greatest. This zone passes into one of stabilization where the deformation rate is generally lower, although there are localized zones of more active tectonics where the generally mildly deformed overlying blanket of sediment is significant dis- turbed. Supracomplex sedimentary basins that are locally very thick are developed in the southern part of the complex. The Barbados Ridge Uplift containing the island of Barbados lies at the western edge of the complex; between it and the volcanic arc lies a large forearc basin comprising the Tobago Trough and Lesser Antilles Trough. There are major longitudinal variations in the complex that are broadly related to the northward decrease in sedi- ment thickness away from terrigenous sources in South America and that are locally controlled by ridges in the oceanic igneous crust passing beneath the complex.

  • Active Structures in the Barbados Accretionary Wedge of the Lesser Antilles Subduction: Implications for Slip Partitioning

Main active structures in the Barbados accretionary wedge of the Lesser Antilles Subduction: implications for slip partitioning Gaëlle Bénâtre1, Nathalie Feuillet1, Hélène Carton1, Eric Jacques1, and Thibaud Pichot2 1Université de Paris, Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris, CNRS UMR7154, Paris, F-75005, France ([email protected]) 2Beicip-Franlab, Rueil-Malmaison, France At the Lesser Antilles Subduction Zone (LASZ), the American plates subduct under the Caribbean plate at a slow rate of ~2 cm/yr. No major subduction megathrust earthquakes have occurred in the area since the 1839 and 1843 historical events, and the LASZ is typically considered weakly coupled. At the front of the LASZ, the Barbados accretionary wedge (BAW) is one of the largest accretionary wedges in the world. The width of the BAW decreases northward, owing to the increasing distance to the sediment source (Orinoco river) and the presence of several aseismic oceanic ridges, in particular the Tiburon ridge, that stops sediment progression. Marine geophysical studies conducted to date over the northern part of the BAW (Guadeloupe-Martinique sector) have mostly focused on resolving the geometry of the backstop. However, the structure of the wedge and the mechanical behavior of the subduction interface remain poorly known. Our study aims to describe the geometry of the BAW by a detailed morpho-tectonic analysis in order to place constraints on present and past dynamic interactions between the subducting and overriding plates.

  • Colonisation of the Antilles by South American Fauna: Giant Sunken Islands As a Passageway?
    NATIONAL PRESS RELEASE – PARIS – 18 MAY 2021 Colonisation of the Antilles by South American fauna: giant sunken islands as a passageway? Fossils of land animals from South America have been found in the Antilles. The appearance/disappearance of archipelagos is due to tectonic plate movements and glacial- interglacial cycles. Archipelagos have emerged and sunk in a cyclic manner for millions of years, favouring the displacement of the Antilles. Fossils of land animals from South America have been found in the Antilles, but how did these animals get there? According to scientists from the CNRS, l’Université des Antilles, l’Université de Montpellier and d’Université Côte d’Azur, land emerged in this region and then disappeared beneath the waves for millions of years, explaining how some species were able to migrate to the Antilles. This study will be published in June 2021 issue in Earth-Science Reviews. Fossils of land animals from the Antilles, including mammals and amphibians, have their closest relatives in South America. The crossing of the Caribbean Sea from South America was therefore possible, but how? As swimming across the continent must be ruled out, given that several hundred kilometres separate the South American continent from the Antilles, the dispersal of this fauna has been attributed either to natural rafts coming out of the continent's flooded rivers, or to the existence of land bridges that are now submerged. A scientific project involving geologists, palaeontologists and geophysicists1 is now solving some of the mysteries related to these terrestrial species in the Antilles. The researchers have reconstructed the geography of the northern Lesser Antilles over the last 40 million years and have shown that the movements of the tectonic plates at the junction between the Lesser Antilles, the Greater Antilles and the Aves Ridge (an underwater mountain), have several times given birth to archipelagos and islands quite close to each other, which were then swallowed up in the course of time.

  • 595 VERIFICATION of an ARCHAIC AGE OCCUPATION on BARBADOS, SOUTHERN LESSER ANTILLES Scott M Fitzpatrick Some of the More Central
    RADIOCARBON, Vol 53, Nr 4, 2011, p 595–604 © 2011 by the Arizona Board of Regents on behalf of the University of Arizona VERIFICATION OF AN ARCHAIC AGE OCCUPATION ON BARBADOS, SOUTHERN LESSER ANTILLES Scott M Fitzpatrick Department of Sociology and Anthropology, NC State University, Raleigh, North Carolina, USA. Email: [email protected]. ABSTRACT. The Caribbean Archaic Age (about 3000–500 BC) is thought to represent the earliest migration of humans from South America into the Lesser Antilles. However, there is a conspicuous absence of these early sites on islands south of the Guadeloupe Passage. To date, only a single radiocarbon date derived from a Queen conch (Strombus [Eustrombus] gigas) shell at the Heywoods site on Barbados was indicative of an Archaic occupation in the southern Antilles apart from a scatter- ing of poorly reported (and mostly undated) sites. Given a number of issues associated with reliance on a single date to estab- lish a cultural horizon, along with other problems derived from possible carbonate cement contamination and dating marine shells of a longer-lived species such as Queen conch, 2 additional samples were taken from the same unit and context at Hey- woods to confirm whether the site is truly representative of an occupation during the Archaic Age. Results from a Queen conch shell adze in Context 7 dated to 2530–2200 BC (2 ) and overlaps with the only other Archaic date from the site dating to 2320–1750 cal BC, while a juvenile specimen of the same species from Context 8 at 3280–2940 BC (2 ) indicates that Barbados may have been settled even earlier.

Beyond the geographic limits of all continents, inhabitants discovered varying peoples, cultures, and organizations of power that required certain degrees of adaptation to co-exist within a stable environment. The eighteenth century saw the emergence of an increasingly complex, diversified, and competitive Atlantic hemisphere with the convergence of multiple nations, ethnicities, cultures, and continents in the islands of the circum-Caribbean.
