Roca 651, 8" piso, (1322) Buenos Aires, Argentina, E-mail: [email protected] * Corresponding author (Manuscript received July 24,2003; accepted January 26,2004) Abstract The geological interpretation of high-resolution aeromagnetic data over the La Pampa province, in central Argentina, in addition to lower resolution magnetic information from the region of the Neuquen and Colorado basins, leads to the definition of the precise boundaries of the Chilenia, Cuyania, Pampia and Patagonia terranes, as well as that of the Rio ..... de la Plata Craton, within the study region. The high-resolution aeromagnetic survey data are compared and studied in conjunction with all the available geological information, to produce a map of the solid geology of this region, which is largely covered by Quaternary sediments. A number of structures of different magnitudes, as we11 as their relative chronology, are also recognized, i.e., regional faults, sub-regional faults, fractures and shear zones, as well as the most conspicuous magnetic fabric of the basement that reflects its main planar structures. Three different basements are distinguished on the basis of their contrasting magnetic character, and are interpreted to represent the Cuyania and Pampia terranes and the Rio de la Plata Craton, separated from each other by large-scale discontinuities.

  • Tectonic Segmentation of the North Andean Margin: Impact of the Carnegie Ridge Collision
    ELSEVIER Earth and Planetary Science Letters 168 (1999) 255±270 Tectonic segmentation of the North Andean margin: impact of the Carnegie Ridge collision M.-A. Gutscher a,Ł, J. Malavieille a, S. Lallemand a, J.-Y. Collot b a Laboratoire de GeÂophysique et Tectonique, UMR 5573, Universite Montpellier II, Place E. Bataillon, F-34095 Montpellier, Cedex 5, France b IRD, Geosciences Azur, Villefranche-sur-Mer, France Received 17 July 1998; accepted 2 March 1999 Abstract The North Andean convergent margin is a region of intense crustal deformation, with six great subduction earthquakes Mw ½ 7:8 this century. The regional pattern of seismicity and volcanism shows a high degree of segmentation along strike of the Andes. Segments of steep slab subduction alternate with aseismic regions and segments of ¯at slab subduction. This segmentation is related to heterogeneity on the subducting Nazca Plate. In particular, the in¯uence of the Carnegie Ridge collision is investigated. Four distinct seismotectonic regions can be distinguished: Region 1 ± from 6ëN to 2.5ëN with steep ESE-dipping subduction and a narrow volcanic arc; Region 2 ± from 2.5ëN to 1ëS showing an intermediate-depth seismic gap and a broad volcanic arc; Region 3 ± from 1ëS to 2ëS with steep NE-dipping subduction, and a narrow volcanic arc; Region 4 ± south of 2ëS with ¯at subduction and no modern volcanic arc. The Carnegie Ridge has been colliding with the margin since at least 2 Ma based on examination of the basement uplift signal along trench-parallel transects. The subducted prolongation of Carnegie Ridge may extend up to 500 km from the trench as suggested by the seismic gap and the perturbed, broad volcanic arc.

  • Revised Tectonic Boundaries in the Cocos Plate Off Costa Rica Implications for the Segmentation of the Convergent Margin And

Ranero, 2 R. von Huene, 2,• Steven C. Cande,4 and Hans A. Roeser t Abstract. The oceanicCocos Plate subductingbeneath Costa Rica has a complexplate tectonichistory resulting in segmentation.New lines of magneticdata clearlydefine tectonicboundaries which separatelithosphere formed at the East PacificRise from lithosphereformed at the Cocos-Nazcaspreading center. They also define two early phase Cocos-Nazcaspreading regimes and a major propagator.In addition to these sharply definedtectonic boundaries are overprintedboundaries from volcanismduring passageof CocosPlate over the Galapagoshot spot.The subductedsegment boundaries correspond with distinctchanges in upper plate tectonicstructure and featuresof the subductedslab. Newly identifiedseafloor-spreading anomalies show oceanic lithosphere formed during initial breakupof the FarallonPlate at 22.7 Ma and openingof the Cocos-Nazcaspreading center. A revisedregional compilation of magneticanomalies allows refinement of plate tectonicmodels for the earlyhistory of the Cocos-Nazcaspreading center. At 19.5Ma a major ridgejump reshapedits geometry,and after -14.5 Ma multiplesouthward ridge jumps led to a highly asymmetricaccretion of lithosphere.A suspectedcause of ridgejumps is an interactionof the Cocos-Nazcaspreading center

  • Abrupt Climatic Changes As Triggering Mechanisms of Massive Volcanic Collapses
    Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research 155 (2006) 329–333 www.elsevier.com/locate/jvolgeores Short communication Abrupt climatic changes as triggering mechanisms of massive volcanic collapses Lucia Capra Instituto de Geografía, UNAM, CU Coyoacan, 04510, Mexico DF, Mexico Received 7 March 2006; received in revised form 31 March 2006; accepted 19 April 2006 Available online 5 June 2006 Abstract Abrupt climate change can trigger volcanic collapses, phenomena that cause the destruction of the entire sector of a volcano, including its summit. During the past 30 ka, major volcanic collapses occurred just after main glacial peaks that ended with rapid deglaciation. Glacial debuttressing, load discharge and fluid circulation coupled with the post-glacial increase of humidity and heavy rains can activate the failure of unstable edifices. Furthermore, significant global warming can be responsible for the collapse of ice-capped unstable volcanoes, an unpredictable hazard that in few minutes can bury inhabited areas. © 2006 Published by Elsevier B.V.

  • Numerical Modeling of the Emplacement of Socompa Rock Avalanche, Chile K
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 110, B12202, doi:10.1029/2005JB003758, 2005 Numerical modeling of the emplacement of Socompa rock avalanche, Chile K. Kelfoun and T. H. Druitt Laboratoire Magmas et Volcans, OPGC, UBP–CNRS–IRD, Clermont-Ferrand, France Received 1 April 2005; revised 27 June 2005; accepted 14 September 2005; published 16 December 2005. 3 [1] The 7.5 ka Socompa sector collapse emplaced 25 km of fragmented rock as a thin, but widespread (500 km2), avalanche deposit, followed by late stage sliding of 11 km3 as Toreva blocks. Most of the avalanche mass was emplaced dry, although saturation of a basal shear layer cannot be excluded. Modeling was carried out using the depth-averaged granular flow equations in order to provide information on the flow behavior of this well-preserved, long run-out avalanche. Results were constrained using structures preserved on the surface of the deposit, as well as by deposit outline and run-up (a proxy for velocity). Models assuming constant dynamic friction fail to produce realistic results because the low basal friction angles (1 to 3.5°) necessary to generate observed run-out permit neither adequate deposition on slopes nor preservation of significant morphology on the deposit surface. A reasonable fit is obtained, however, if the avalanche is assumed simply to experience a constant retarding stress of 50–100 kPa during flow. This permits long run-out as well as deposition on slopes and preservation of realistic depositional morphology. In particular the model explains a prominent topographic escarpment on the deposit surface as the frozen front of a huge wave of debris reflected off surrounding hills.

  • Volcanic Hazards
    have killed more than 5,000 people. Two important points are demonstrated by this. The first is that the most deadly eruptions are generally pyroclastic: lava flows are rarely a main cause of death. The second is that it is not always the biggest eruptions that cause the most deaths. Even quite small eruptions can be major killers – for example the 1985 eruption of Ruiz, which resulted in 5 the second largest number of volcanic fatalities of the twentieth century. Sometimes volcanoes kill people even when they are not erupting: Iliwerung 1979 (a landslide, not associated with an Volcanic hazards eruption, that caused a tsunami when it entered the sea) and Lake Nyos 1986 (escaping gas) being examples of death by two different non-eruptive mechanisms. In this chapter you will learn: • about the most devastating volcanic eruptions of historic times Some of the causes of death listed in Table 5.1 may need further • about the wide variety of ways in which eruptions can cause death elaboration. Famine, for example, is a result of crop failure and/ and destruction (including by triggering a tsunami). or the loss of livestock because of fallout, pyroclastic flows or gas poisoning. It is often accompanied by the spread of disease In previous chapters I dealt with the different types of volcano as a result of insanitary conditions brought about by pollution that occur and the ways in which they can erupt. The scene is now of the water supply. In the modern world it is to be hoped that set to examine the hazards posed to human life and well-being international food aid to a stricken area would prevent starvation by volcanic eruptions.
