A central problem in Andean geophysics remains the               accurate characterization of the overriding plate, specifically its             composition, style of deformation, and thermal state.  This                     collaborative proposal is for seismic analysis of digital array data            and broadband data to image that crust/mantle wedge in two diverse              Andean provinces: the region of flat subduction beneath central Peru,           and the region of the westward-stepping subduction complex that                 comprises the northernmost Andes.  Our objective is to map seismic              structures in sufficient detail and accuracy that the results may be            applied to understanding the dynamical and magmatic processes that              shape the Andes.  By combining these two markedly different provinces           in a single study we endeavor also to resolve fundamental differences           in deep structure between segments of the Andean arc.
