Resumen

We calculated the slip rate of the Alhama de Murcia fault by means of two techniques: a) paleoseismology, and b) a morphotectonic analysis. These methodologies measure the offset of a linear feature whose age is known. In the Lorca-Totana segment of the fault, we carried out a three-dimensional trenching campaign to identify and measure the offset of a buried paleochannel. The age of the paleo channel was constrained by new approaches of OSL , radiocarbon and U -series applied to small amounts of pedogenic carbonate datings. The mean net slip rate obtained is 0.9 mm/a. In the southernmost termination of the fault (Goñar-Lorca segment), we analysed eight offset channels in surface. The maximum ages of the channels (age of the surface in which they are entrenched) were estimated in base ofprevious geomorphological maps and of publ ished ages (thermoluminescence) together with new datings of pedogenic carbonate. The minimum lateral slip rate for the fault in this area is 1.7-1.6 mm/a. These slip rate values position the Alhama de Murcia fault as one of the most active faults in the Eastern Betics Shear Zone.
