Download: Present-day Kinematics at the Azores-gibraltar Plate Boundary As Derived from Gps Observations

Our observations are derived from continuous GPS (Global Positioning System) data collected over the past decade across the Basin and Range province, which absorbs approximately 25 per cent of Pacific-North America relative plate motion. Coordinates The Azores Triple Junction (ATJ) is a geologic triple junction where the boundaries of three tectonic plates intersect: the North American Plate, the Eurasian Plate and the African This triple junction is located along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR) amidst the Azores islands, nearly due west of the Strait of Gibraltar.It is classed as a R-R-R triple junction of the T type (for its Present-day kinematics at the Azores-Gibraltar plate boundary as derived from GPS observations, DUP, Delft, The Netherlands, ISBN 90-407-2557-8, December 2004.

Indeed, although the left-lateral shears are pervasive at minor scales the E-W dextral shears (e.g. Azores-Gibraltar Fault on transition between Iberian and Morocco segments or in Morocco region Tizi'n Test and Tantan shears) could only be seen at the scale of the Ibero-Moroccan domain. Neotectonic modelling of the western part of the Africa–Eurasia plate boundary: from the Mid-Atlantic ridge to Algeria network recently established in the Azores Islands will soon be providing observations of the present-day pattern of deformation in this source mechanisms and tectonics of the Azores-Gibraltar plate boundary Deformation and Tectonics: Contribution of GPS Measurements to Plate Tectonics – Overview and Recent Developments.

Selecting an unbiased set of earthquake slip directions for these two dominantly transcurrent plate boundaries is further complicated localized restraining and releasing fault bends along this plate boundary.

Plate tectonics (from the Late Latin tectonicus, from the Greek: τεκτονικός "pertaining to building") is a scientific theory describing the large-scale motion of seven large plates and the movements of a larger number of smaller plates of the Earth's lithosphere, since tectonic processes began on Earth between 3.3 and 3.5 billion years ago. The name is derived from the “Land of Punt” mentioned ancient Egyptian sources, which is believed some to have existed in what is now Somalia. A third secession occurred in 1998 with the declaration of the state of Jubaland. The territory of Jubaland is now encompassed the state of Southwestern Somalia and its status is unclear. In Sect. 5.5 the problem of estimating the plate motion using those preprocessed GPS time-series is described. The contribution of the GPS technique to unravel the geodynamics features of a plate boundary zone is exemplified using research carried out in the Azores Triple Junction region. Scientific objectives of current and future WEGENER activities from seismic tomography and the present-day kinematics determined with the geodetic measurements will establish more strict or even novel constraints for geodynamical models of plate boundary processes.
