Abstract:ABSTRACT. The São Vicente earthquake, which had occurred in the Santos Basin, approximately 200 km from São Vicente city, São Paulo state in 2008, was well detected in the global network, allowing a good determination of their focal mechanisms and associated nodal planes, sub-horizontal (strike 82◦) and subvertical (strike 341◦). Understanding seismic, geological and geophysical data have been necessary to determine which nodal plane is the earthquake generating fault. Gravity anomaly maps and structural conto… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
