Subsidencia sísmica en las cuencas neógenas lacustres del Prebético de Albacete

Abstract

Seismic subsidence has been calculated in the Prebetic Neogene basins of Albacete (Betic Chain, Spain). The existent paleoseismic data allow us to know the number of earthquakes and their approximate magnitudes. The paleoseismic events are located into varved beds therefore we has obtained the sedimentation rate. Using rupture parameters in faults (rupture length and surface displacement) we has calculated the seismic subsidence rate, in base of the sedimentation rate The minimum seismic subsidence value is 10% and 50% as maximum.
