Download or read book A new seismotectonic model approach to Nicaragua written by M.O. Cotilla-Rodríguez, L. Álvarez-Gómez, D. Córdoba-Barba and A. Muñoz-Guerrero and published by Mario Cotilla Rodriguez. This book was released on 2021-06-17 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title perfectly describes the content and purpose of the book. The language used in the presentation is appropriate and conforms to contemporary scientific terminology. The structure of the text is harmoniously justified and includes 54 figures, 33 tables and 199 references, in 99 pages. Authors sustain the idea of St. Francis of Assisi (Italy, ¿?-1226): “La verdadera enseñanza que transmitimos es lo que vivimos; y somos buenos predicadores cuando ponemos en práctica lo que decimos”. For the first time, a seismotectonic model for Central America is proposed and argued, subdividing it into two Seismotectonic Provinces: America Central I (El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua) and America Central II (Costa Rica and Panama). Significant differences appear in these regions with respect to the existing models in Chile, México and Peru; where Central America's lower hazard is highlighted. This is very important at the time of making hazard and risk estimates, especially when the limited monetary resources of Central American countries are known. The authors undertook an extensive review of all the materials available to them, and the use of several bibliography (in different languages) reflected in the book demonstrates it. An element of consideration has been the argumentation about the fragmentation of active structures, the transmission of stresses and the corresponding deformations; as well as the hierarchy of all tectonic elements. Highlights the novel proposal of a set of active tectonic knots in Central America, and Nicaragua in particular. In this sense, in the vicinity of the Managua City, a knot is defined that justifies its unique seismic activity. It is hoped, mainly, in Nicaragua, and that it will allow them to question, with critical eyes and minds, the dogmas and models that are accepted by the majority of the scientific community. In this regard, the following reasoning is given: “Cualquier ayuda innecesaria es un obstáculo para el desarrollo” (María Tecla Artemisa Montessori/ Italy, 1870-Netherlands, 1952). Finally, the use of several languages for the presentation of the work and the different covers is commendable. This should be an incentive for the new generations [“The limits of my language are the limits of my world” (Ludwig Josef Johann Wittgensteine/ Austria, 1889-United Kingdom, 1951)].

Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive description of the volcanological, petrological and geochemical features of the Poás Volcano (Costa Rica), one of the most active volcanic systems in Central America and part of the Central America Volcanic Arc (CAVA). Poás Volcano hosts a unique sulfur lake, which actually is one of the world's most acidic lakes, and has experienced molten sulfur eruptions. Past investigations, current monitoring activities and planned programs of investigation into lessening of the volcanic hazard are reported here. Specific sections of the monograph will be devoted to the impact of this volcano on the social, agricultural and industrial activities in the area. Legends and popular traditions related to this volcano will be described in the last chapter to round up a complete scientific review on this unique volcanic system.

Download or read book Faulting, Fracturing and Igneous Intrusion in the Earth's Crust written by David Healy and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2012 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geologists have long grappled with understanding the mechanical origins of rock deformation. Stress regimes control the nucleation, growth and reactivation of faults and fractures; induce seismic activity; affect the transport of magma; and modulate structural permeability, thereby influencing the redistribution of hydrothermal and hydrocarbon fluids. Experimentalists endeavour to recreate deformation structures observed in nature under controlled stress conditions. Earth scientists studying earthquakes will attempt to monitor or deduce stress changes in the Earth as it actively deforms. All are building upon the pioneering research and concepts of Ernest Masson Anderson, dating back to the start of the twentieth century. This volume celebrates Anderson's legacy, with 14 original research papers that examine faulting and seismic hazard; structural inheritance; the role of local and regional stress fields; low angle faults and the role of pore fluids; supplemented by reviews of Andersonian approaches and a reprint of his classic paper of 1905--

Download or read book Palaeoseismology written by Klaus Reicherter and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2009 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the tremendous toll in human lives and attendant economic losses, it is appropriate that scientists are working hard to understand better earthquakes, with the aim of forecasting and, ultimately, predicting them. In the last decades increasing attention has been paid to the coseismic effects on the natural environment, creating a solid base of empirical data for the estimation of source parameters of strong earthquakes based on geological observations. The recently introduced INQUA scale (Environmental Seismic Intensity-ESI 2007 Scale) of macroseismic intensity clearly shows how the systematic study of earthquake surface faulting, coseismic liquefaction, tsunami deposits and other primary and secondary ground effects can be integrated with 'traditional' seismological and tectonic information to provide a better understanding of the seismicity level of an area and the associated hazards. At the moment this is the only scientific means of equating the seismic records to the seismic cycle time-spans extending the seismic catalogues even to tens of thousands of years, improving future seismic hazard analyses. This Special Publication covers some of the latest multidisciplinary work undertaken to achieve that aim. Eighteen papers from research groups from all continents address a wide range of topics related both to palaeoseismological studies and assessment of macroseismic intensity based only on the natural phenomena associated with an earthquake.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caribbean Tsunamis - A 500-Year History from 1498-1998 broadly characterizes the nature of tsunamis in the Caribbean Sea, while bearing in mind both scientific aspects as well as potential interest by the many governments and populations likely to be affected by the hazard. Comprehension of the nature of tsunamis and past effects is crucial for the awareness and education of populations at risk. Audience: This book provides a thorough, yet highly accessible review of tsunamis in the Caribbean. It is of interest not only to tsunami and natural hazards specialists at academia and governmental institutes, but also to policy makers and to the general public.
