  • Exploring the Historical Earthquakes Preceding the Giant 1960 Chile Earthquake in a Time-Dependent Seismogenic Zone

Ely Nicolás Gorigoitia Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.cwu.edu/cotsfac Part of the Geology Commons, and the Geophysics and Seismology Commons Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, Vol. , No. , pp. –, , doi: 10.1785/0120170103 Ⓔ Exploring the Historical Earthquakes Preceding the Giant 1960 Chile Earthquake in a Time-Dependent Seismogenic Zone by M. Cisternas, M. Carvajal, R. Wesson, L. L. Ely, and N. Gorigoitia Abstract New documentary findings and available paleoseismological evidence provide both new insights into the historical seismic sequence that ended with the giant 1960 south-central Chile earthquake and relevant information about the region’s seismogenic zone. According to the few available written records, this region was previously struck by earthquakes of varying size in 1575, 1737, and 1837. We ex- panded the existing compilations of the effects of the two latter using unpublished first-hand accounts found in archives in Chile, Peru, Spain, and New England. We further investigated their sources by comparing the newly unearthed historical data and available paleoseismological evidence with the effects predicted by hypothetical dislocations. The results reveal significant differences in the along-strike and depth distribution of the ruptures in 1737, 1837, and 1960. While the 1737 rupture likely occurred in the northern half of the 1960 region, on a narrow and deep portion of the megathrust, the 1837 rupture occurred mainly in the southern half and slipped over a wide range of depth.

During 2010 several massive salp outbreaks of the Subantarctic species Ihlea magalhanica were recorded in the inner sea of Chiloé Island (ISCh, Southern Chile), affecting both phytoplankton abundance and salmon farmers by causing high fish mortality. First outbreaks were recorded during February 2010 when Ihlea magalhanica reached up to 654,000 ind m-3 close to the net pens in Maillen Island and consecutive outbreaks could be followed during March and from October to November 2010. One month prior to the first recorded salp outbreak, the adjacent oceanic region and ISCh showed a sharp decline of ca.

  • Redacted for Privacy Abstract Approved: / Steve Neshyb(
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Rodrigo H. Nunez for the degree of Master of Science in Oceanography presented on August 3, 1990. Title: Prediction of Tidal Propagation and Circulation in Chilean InlandSeas Using a Frequency Domain Model Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: / Steve Neshyb( The calculated flow field and tide wave propagation in the Chilean Inland Seas is modeled with a non-linear tidal embayment method (TEA-NL, Westerink et al, 1988) and assimilation of tide records of the Chilean HydrographicInstitute. Model isvalidated for two testcases with assimilated error-freeboundary conditions. An Inverse Tidal Method (I. T. M.) developed as a time-domain method by Bennett and McIntosh in 1982, is used to calculate the forcing functions, but in the frequency-domain instead. The model is first run using all available tide data. A second run with a subset of five stations shows how the choice and location of stations affect the prediction of tide wave propagation and flow fields.The boundary conditions calculated by the I. T. M. for the cases of seven and five stations reproduced the known data at the stations with like error magnitudes.However, for the seven stations case, the tide wave propagation along the seaward side of Chiloe Island (Pacific Ocean) propagated from South to North (the known direction of propagation is from North to South).After disregarding two stations, the model gave tide waves along the seaward side of ChloeIsland propagating from North to South. The model is clearly sensitive to perturbations introducedby hydraulics factors other than pure tide wave propagation. Charts of model simulation of flow fields are shown at 3, 6, 9and 12 hours of the M2 tidal cycle.

Hay un proceso sutil, parecido al que se gesta cuando nos ena- moramos, cuyos lazos y raíces se entretejen en la urdimbre vagarosa del inconsciente, llevándonos por caminos ignotos que en algún recodo o encrucijada nos revelan aquel espacio dormido de las ensoñaciones, presto a descubrirnos como en súbito despertar de su misterioso encantamiento. Después de algunos viajes, a lo largo de veinte años de sue- ños y caminos, recibí el hallazgo de dos lugares remotos, ubi- cados en las antípodas de esa curiosa esfera verde azulada con la que nos representamos la inmensa y minúscula Tierra. Como dos cuadros suspendidos por el eje de la imaginación, entre los confines norte y sur de los occidentes procelosos: Atlántico y Pacífico, surgen entre las brumas de la memoria, velos que conjura la esperanza, Galicia y Chiloé, ambas comarcas naci- das en el mito de la Tierra Madre (Terra Nai), como antorchas alzadas por el afán sin pausa de la utopía personal, aquella que no tiene más prosélitos que el propio espíritu desplegado como un abanico en el diapasón de los sones amados.

  • “Entre Mares, Islas Y Bosques“. Carolina Villagrán
    CAPÍTULO I ENTRE MARES, ISLAS Y BOSQUES CAROLINA VILLAGRÁN LA VANGUARDIA PACÍFICA DEL BORDE GLACIAL EN EL CONO SUR DE AMÉRICA En tiempos muy antiguos un diluvio destruyó la humanidad. […] lo imputan a una serpiente monstruosa, ama del océano, llamada caicai […]. Huyendo del ascenso de las aguas y de la oscuridad que reinaba, los humanos car- gados de víveres subieron a una montaña de cima triple, que pertenecía a otra serpiente, enemiga de la primera. Se llamaba tenten […] Quienes no treparon suficientemente aprisa perecieron ahogados, se mudaron en peces de especies variadas que, más tarde, fecundaron a las mujeres acudidas a pescar durante la marea baja. Así fueron concebidos los antepasados de los clanes que tienen nombres de peces. […] A medida que los sobrevivientes se elevaban por el flanco de la montaña, esta se elevaba o, según otras versiones, flotaba en la superficie de las aguas. […] Cuando caicai se declaró vencida, no quedaba más que una o dos parejas sobrevivientes. Un sacrificio humano les permitió obtener el descenso de las aguas. Y repoblaron la tierra.1 La fisiografía del paisaje del archipiélago de Chiloé constituye la más evidente impronta legada por la reciente historia geológica que ha ex- perimentado el territorio durante los eventos glaciales del Pleistoceno: la topografía general de las islas, marcadas por su relieve de suaves colinas, a excepción del sector montañoso noroccidental de la Isla Grande, una discontinuidad de la cordillera de la Costa conocida localmente como cordillera de Piuchué; los farellones de sedimentos glaciales, glacio-flu- viales y lacustres que se acumulan en el acantilado de la costa interior de la Isla Grande, en sus fiordos, golfos y también en las islas más pequeñas; el desmembramiento de su territorio en un conjunto de islas y archipié- lagos que afloran en un mar interior que se extiende hasta los Andes y que alguna vez fuera el valle longitudinal.
