Description
Active source seismic investigation of the volcanic arc, barckarc,and downgoing plate in the Costa Rican portion of the Central Amercican Focus Site. The program focuses on the central Costa Rican segment of the arc, a site of marked transitions in lava chemistry, because the narrow isthmus here is well suited for detailed seismic imaging using onshore-offshore techniques. This location also enables the incorporation of data from the regional Costa Rican seismic network with the proposed areal active source array.
