in the zone of weakness of Paleozoic faults in the Andean area Explanation: fallamientos doesn't exist in rae, so the writer must mean fallas (faults). Putting some of the English terms in google gives sentences as below: Example sentence(s):

on the weakly zone of a Paleozoic fault system with andean direction that Explanation: Este bloque ha sido intruido por el Pluton Cachicoto y Subvolcanico Uchiza que se emplazo justamente por la zona de debilidad de fallamientos paleozoicos de direccion andina que limitan el sector oriental del Complejo Marañon this block has been intruded by the Cachicoto Pluton and the subvolcanic Uchiza, emplaced right on the weakly zone of a Paleozoic fault system with andean direction, that conforms the east sector limit of the Marañon Complex Para hacer sentido, hice la traducción completa del párrafo -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2008-10-08 22:49:01 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Dirección andina: se utiliza para indicar que un sistema (de fallas, de pliegues) tienen la misma dirección que la cordillera, es decir NNW. Expresa la idea de que cualquier estructura tiene precisamente esa dirección, sin implicar que necesariamente conforman el mismo evento tectónico. En este caso, los fallamientos o los sistemas de fallas del Paleozoico, tienen dirección andina, es decir, las trazas de las fallas tienen la misma dirección que la cordillera de los Andes (por lo menos en ese sector). Si se dijera que van en dirección a o hacia Los Andes, implicaría que son perpendiculares u oblicuas, y no es el caso, porque el texto tendría que indicar que las fallas tienen un rumbo perpendicular u oblicuo respecto a los Andes. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2008-10-08 22:59:00 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Uso de dirección andina (Andean direction) en Español: http://www.ingemmet.gob.pe/publicaciones/Cap5-Trab2.pdf -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2008-10-08 23:03:42 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Use of Andean direction (dirección andina) in English: http://www.scielo.org.pe/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2008-10-08 23:11:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The Geology of **Weak Fault Zones**: Long Term and Short Term Processes - STRUCTURAL GEOLOGY, 8010 Fractures and faults, 8030 Microstructures, ... zones means that they quickly form highly effective interconnected weak layers ... de RE Holdsworth - 2005 - Las 2 versiones -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2008-10-08 23:13:05 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The use of **weak** in terms of structural geology http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2005AGUFM.V14A..07H |
