Objective

Mapping of the subduction interplate in the range where it may be seismogenic along the Lesser Antilles Arc from Northern Guadeloupe and Antigua to Martinique, via Dominica, by deploying special deep sea imaging of its structure and seismic activity. The scientific aims of this study targeting the fore-arc region are to identify and locate in advance of main rupture zones of possible future major earthquakes and search for transient signals of the activity. It is supported by the THALES WAS RIGHT and ANR SUBSISMANTI projects (2/6 projects making it up).
