Abstract The Caribbean plate subducts beneath northwest South America at a shallow angle due to large igneous province that added up 12 km of buoyant crust. overriding lacks volcanism and exhibits Laramide‐style uplifts over 500 from the trench. Here, we illuminate subduction structures through finite frequency teleseismic P‐wave tomography connect those deformation on plate. We use new data set collected Caribbean‐Mérida Andes seismic experiment comprised 65 temporary broadband stations...
Excessive water production is an enduring problem in the oil industry that has always been unbearable burden on environment and a great damage to ultimate recovery. Gel treatment routinely used for decreasing production. Disproportionate permeability reduction (DPR) natural phenomenon some polymer gels can reduce more than oil. The conformance improvement treatments with DPR effectively cut without substantially reducing productivity fractured reservoirs. At present, there are no widely...
Abstract Both seismic and geodetic data suggested that the ∼120‐km long Weifang segment of Tanlu fault zone, a large‐scale active strike‐slip system at east China, is gap with no obvious along‐strike shear motion surface. Measuring crustal deformation around crucial to constrain stress/strain buildup potential risk fault. We measured upper mantle anisotropy using P‐to‐S converted waves Moho ( P ms) core‐mantle boundary (SKS) recorded by broadband arrays across segment. The inside zone shows...
<p>The Caribbean plate (CAR) collided with and initiated subduction beneath northwestern South America (SA) at about 60-55 Ma. Since the onset of subduction, it has formed Lara nappes subsequently Laramide-style uplifts Merida Andes, Sierra de la Perija Santa Marta ranges, maximum elevations > 5km. The triangular Maracaibo block, bounded by Marta-Bucaramanga, Bocono Oca-Ancon Faults, is currently escaping to north relative SA over both subducting nonsubducting elements...
