Anomalous soil gas C02 concentrations and relation to seismic activity at Rabaul caldera, Papua New Guinea
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)Medidas de C02 en los suelos de la caldera de Rabaul, Papua Nueva Guinea, reflejan niveles de concentración altos, hasta cerca de un 20%, en relación con un margen activo de la caldera definido por sismicidad. Estos niveles ... -
Aplicación de técnicas de Geo-radar a los muros biológicos de hormigón armado en el interior de una central nuclear
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)Accurate identification of frames into concrete reinforced walls in a nuclear power plant was required because of maintenance labours. Several cuts in the concrete, including the frame, were planned. The cutting lines were ... -
Aplicaciones de Geo-radar para la determinación del volumen de hormigón necesario para la reparación del revestimiento de bóveda y hastiales de un túnel
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)The vault damage in a railway tunnel, caused by damps in a granite massif, produced the granite slabs roof detachment. Sustitution of these granite slabs by concrete, including damping voids between the roof and the granite ... -
Backarc evolution from rifting to mature spreading: The Bransfileld and North Fiji Basins (NW Antarctica and SW Pacific)
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)Five areas, the Eastern and Central Bransfield Basins off the Antarctic Peninsula, and the Tripartite, Central Spreading and South Pandora Ridges of the North Fiji Basin, have been studied using swath-bathymetry and ... -
Campos de paleoesfuerzos terciarios en el borde oriental de la cuenca del Tajo (España central)
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)Three compressive pa/eostress fields, which have been active during the Tertiary, have been deduced from fault-slip data in the eastern border of the Tajo Basin. The first one («Iberian» paleostress field) had a N55E maximum ... -
Caracteristicas de los esfuerzos activos interplaca en la Península Ibérica
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)Current active tectonic stress fields are deduced in intraplate areas of Iberian Peninsula with moderate to low seismic activity. Five areas are analyzed by means of individual focal mechanism data, populational analysis ... -
Características estructurales asociadas al núcleo metamórfico de Lora del Río (Zona de Ossa-Morena)
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)The Lora del Rio metamorphic core is located in the easternmost part of the Monesterio Antiform. A detailled structural and metamorphic study combined with cartographic data enable the characterization of 3 different ... -
Crisis tectónicas cuaternarias en la cuenca de Madrid
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)Quaternary sediment deformation structures of Madrid Basin have been analyzed. We get a high symmetry degree in deduced stress tensor trends, concluding that there are a regional stress field with NW-SE Shmax trend. Local ... -
Cuantificación del desplazamiento dextroso Alpino en la cordillera Ibérica a partir de datos gravimétricos
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)Intraplate deformation in the eastern zone of the Iberian Peninsula is characterized by strike-slip faulting during Tertiary. Gradient pattern of Bouguer Anomaly Map of the Spanish Central SystemIberian Range linking zone ... -
Deformación contractiva del margen noroeste ibérico: Implicaciones tectónicas del estudio paleomagnético de la Cuenca de As Pontes (NW España)
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)The magnetochronology of the syntectonic sedimentary infilling of the Tertiary Basin of As Pontes (Northwest Spain) has allowed to determine that the activity of the N W -SE dextral strike -slip faults systems o f Galicia ... -
Deformación neotectónica relacionada con anticlinales de núcleo salino (NE de la cuenca del Ebro, Barcelona)
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)Interest on areas of low seismicity but with neotectonic deformation has increased related to the existence of catastrophic earthquakes in areas far away of the active plate margins. In the Ebro basin neotectonic deformation ... -
Deformaciones transtensivas en la Dorsal Sur de Scotia (NE Península Antàrtica)
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)The South Scotia Ridge is studied by swath bathymetry, multichannel seismic and magnetometry profiles, obtained during the HESANT 92/93 cruise. The ridge is composed by thinned continental crust fragments and to the north ... -
Determinación de campos regionales de esfuerzo en el Prebético de Albacete
(Sociedad Geológica de España, 1996)A microstructural analysis has been carried out in the northernmost part of the External Zone in the Betic Cordilleras (Albacete province). Paleostress orientations have been calculated from 1.326 striated fault planes ... -
