There is a rapidly growing number of palaeotsunami sites being reported from the Pacific
region but rarely have researchers looked far beyond their immediate site to find …

In this review article, we compile seismological observations from the different constituent
parts of the Northern Chile forearc: the downgoing Nazca Plate, the plate interface, the …

So far in this century, six very large–magnitude earthquakes (MW≥ 7.8) have ruptured
separate portions of the subduction zone plate boundary of western South America along …

Over the past few decades, precise satellite positioning measurements have revealed
variations in the deformation of the Earth's surface along the South American subduction …

The subduction of seamounts and basement ridges affects the structure, morphology, and
physical state of a convergent margin. To evaluate their impact on the seismo-tectonic …

Seismic investigations and scientific ocean drilling projects have documented a remarkable
degree of geologic heterogeneity in marine forearc basins in convergent margins worldwide …

The role of upper‐plate faulting in the seismic cycle of large megathrust earthquakes
remains poorly understood. We use quasi‐dynamic numerical simulations of seismic cycles …

The northern Chile region of the Nazca subduction zone ruptured in an M w∼ 8.5–9.0
earthquake in 1877, which induced a tsunami. The various magnitude estimates of this …

Detections of slow slip events (SSEs) are now common along most plate boundary fault
systems at the global scale. However, no such event has been described in the south Peru …

Various earthquake models predict that aseismic slip modulates the seismic rupture process
but actual observations of such seismic‐aseismic interaction are scarce. We analyze seismic …
