Normal upper plate fault reactivation in northern Chile and the subduction earthquake cycle: From geological observations and static Coulomb Failure Stress (CFS) change

The northern Chile subduction zone constitutes a seismic gap where no great interplate earthquakes (Mw > 8.8) have nucleated since 1877. Active normal faulting occurs conspicuously in the Coastal Forearc at the southern end of this gap, between 22.7°S and
