In the last few years, interest in offshore Chilean margin has increased rapidly due to presence of gas hydrates. We have modelled hydrate stability zone off shores (from 33° S 46° S) using a steady state approach evaluate effects climate change on stability. Present day conditions were published literature and compared with available measurements. Then, we simulated 50 100 years basis Intergovernmental Panel Climate Change National Aeronautics Space Administration forecasts. An increase...
Abstract The role of local geology in controlling ground motion has long been acknowledged. Consequently, increasing attention is paid to the assessment geophysical properties soils at seismic stations, which impact station recordings and a series related quantities, particularly those referring hazard estimates. Not same level commonly dedicated installation, point that it generally believed housings shelters containing instruments are no interest, because they can only affect frequencies...
In recent decades, the Chilean margin has been extensively investigated to better characterize complex geological setting through geophysical data. The analysis of seismic lines allowed us identify occurrence gas hydrates and free in many places along change pore fluid due potential hydrate dissociation. porosity reduction presence is linked slope area more sensitive case natural phenomena or induced by human activities that could determine dissociations and/or leakage trapped below...
The CAGE22-6 cruise on-board R/V Helmer Hanssen hosted UiT´s Arctic Marine Geology and Geophysics (GEO-8144 GEO-3144) field course for PhD Master students, was carried out in collaboration with NPD – the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate INTPART project HOTMUD based at Centre Earth Evolution Dynamics (CEED) University of Oslo. also a part UNESCO Training Through Research program (formerly, Floating University) framework this is coded as TTR22. main scientific objectives were to investigate:...
<p>At the early stages of seismology, seismic stations were installed directly on rock to minimize effects fine sediments/weathering recorded waves. The bulky size permanent installation seismometers, their need for external batteries, cables and levelling, led place artificial ground, such as ad hoc concrete platforms. In addition, ensure protection from environmental conditions, vandalism facilitate maintenance, many placed inside structures. A common in Italy, an example, is...
