Los Humeros Caldera
Main Article Content
Abstract
The present issue of Geofisica Internacional is devoted to Los Humeros Caldera, a young. volcanic structure located in central-eastern Mexico. The motivation for studying the area arose from its potentiatl as a geothermal source. The results and analyses presenteg herein encompass seismic, gravity, magnetic,tellurie, self-potential, and surface temperature data. Mexico has two major tectonic areas in which the production of electricity from geothermatl sources may become of economic relevance to the country: the Mexican Volcanic Belt (also called Trans-Mexican Neo-volcanic Axis) and the Gulf of California (Alvarez, 1976).
