An earthquake relocation by seismic simultaneous inversion and double differences methods were done in the Colombian Llanos Foothills from 3° to 5°N and from 73° to 75°W. The data used in this work take account 483 earthquakes registered by The Colombia National Seismological Network (RSNC) between 1993 and 2012. For the events relocation the root mean square (RMS) was reduced and several earthquake clusters were identified. The new locations shows principally at southwestern zone are related with the Eastern Frontal Fault System with faults as the Servitá-Santa Maria fault and the Algeciras Fault. In addition this work shows a 3D velocity model indicating an anomaly in the wave behavior related mainly to the low velocity zone under the Eastern Cordillera and minimum variations in average velocity toward southeast zone related with the Amazon Craton. Finally in southwest region where located the faults shows a Vp high velocity anomaly.
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.
