Topography as a proxy for inter-plate coupling
Abstract
The topography of active mountain belts is shaped by long-term crustal deformation and strain from tectonic plates. To test this hypothesis, we correlated mean topography, topographic slope and GPS derived strain rates along the active orogenic belts of South America (Ecuador and northern Peru segments), where relatively rapid convergence occurs between the Nazca and South America plates. Our results show that the Ecuador and northern Peru...
