Modelamiento tridimensional del sistema volcánico Paniri-Toconce, mediante el uso de magnetotelúrica

Mancini de Barbieri, Renzo Antonio January 2018 (has links)
Magíster en Ciencias, Mención Geofísica / The research is located in the San Pedro-Toconce volcanic chain in the central volcanic zoneof the Andes, North Chile. This area is interesting because of its proximity to several active volcanic centers, the geysers field of El Tatio and the recently opened geothermal plant Cerro Pabellon. Thermobarometry studies made in the area point to magma accumulated at 8 km below Lavas de Chao, and depths greater than 24 km below Toconce and Cerro de Leon. Regional geophysical studies show a distribution of conductive bodies around the complex, but the resolution of these studies at shallow depths are not conclusive. Data from wells show the possible presence of a large geothermal system in the southwest part of the complex, with depths of 2 km. Twenty broadband magnetotelluric (MT) stations were measured in the vicinity of the complex, aiming at characterizing the deep conductive structures previously observed in the area, with magmatic bodies associated with the adjacent volcanic system. The results of a 3-D inversion show several conductive anomalies around the complex. Analyses of conductivity together with the 3-D models obtained indicate the presence of a geothermal system to the southwest of the complex with maximum depths of about 5 km, and two possible magmatic chambers below Paniri volcano and between Paniri and San Pedro volcanoes. In addition, the presence of a highly conductive structure to the east is obtained, associated with the Altiplano-Puna magma body (APMB) Comparisons of different models are presented, with and without topography, in order to compare their effectiveness and quality. In addition, the errors associated with each of these are explored to determine the best quality versus processing time relationship. Indicating 3 fundamental conditions, the grid spacing, the size of the model and the conditions on the topography.
