The Instituto Geofísico of the Escuela Politécnica Nacional (IGEPN) is in charge of the monitoring and study of seismic and volcanic activity in the Ecuadorean territory. This institution currently maintains the Servicio Nacional de Sismología y Vulcanología (The National Seismology and Volcanology Service), which includes monitoring via modern sei...
A large earthquake (Mw 7.7) occurred on 16 April 2016 within the source region of the 1906 earthquake in the Ecuador-Colombia subduction zone. The 1906 event has been interpreted as a megathrust earthquake (Mw 8.8) that ruptured the source regions of smaller earthquakes in 1942, 1958, and 1979 in this subduction. Our seismic analysis indicated that...
The North-Andean subduction zone generates
recurrent tsunamigenic earthquakes. The seismicity is
usually considered to be segmented because of different
specific morphological features of the Nazca Plate driving
the subduction motion. Most of the recent powerful
earthquakes in the margin were located in its northern part.
To the south, the region o...
