The intra-arc Liquine-Ofqui Fault System (LOFS) is an active transpressive fault zone located in the Patagonian Andes of Chile. In 2007, a seismic sequence occurred in the Aysen Fjord region of Chilean Patagonia along the LOFS, with a M-w 6.2 main earthquake that triggered dozens of landslides, some...
