Cuba strenghten its ties with foreign researchers to deepen the knowledge of seismic activity in the Caribbean, based on the common circumstances derived from sharing that geographical area.Oleary González, specialist at the National Center for Seismological Research, explained that these links have narrowed in recent years, especially with scientists from French institutions in the Caribbean islands and Haiti.
She pointed out the recent work carried out in Martinique, with four missions of Cuba there to specify similar problems in the telluric behavior of the countries of the Antilles settled in the same tectonic plates and borders with them, where we share common phenomena.Gonzalez alluded to the seismic tomography made by Cuban and French experts, through a complex technology that resembles those related to the human body and allows to penetrate with remarkable precision in the depths of the earth.Among the mentioned French entities are the Volcanological and Seismological Observatory of Martinique, belonging to the Institute of Physics of the Globe of Paris, and the Normal Higher School of Physics, all with international leadership in these inquiries.
