  abstract = {{W}e investigate the relationship between the long-term ({Q}uaternary) interplate coupling and the short-term geodetically derived interseismic coupling at the {C}entral {E}cuador subduction zone. {A}t this nonaccretionary margin, the {C}abo {P}asado shelf promontory and coastal area are associated with two inter-plate geodetically locked patches. {T}he deepest patch ruptured co-seismically during the {M}w7.8-2016 {P}edernales earthquake, while the shallowest underwent dominantly after-slip. {M}arine geophysical and chronostratigraphic data allow reconstructing the {Q}uaternary tectonic evolution of the shelf promontory and substantiating variation of the long-term inter-plate coupling that led to the geodetically locked patches. {P}rior to similar to 1.8 {M}a, the outer-wedge inter-plate coupling was strong enough to activate trench-subparallel strike-slip faults. {T}hen, between similar to 1.8 and 0.79 {M}a, shortening and uplift affected the shelf promontory, implying a locally increased inter-plate coupling. {A}fter a short, post-0.79 {M}a period of subsidence, shortening and uplift resumed denoting a high inter-plate coupling that endured up to the present. {T}he synchronicity of the structural evolution of the shelf promontory with the subduction chronology of two reliefs of the {C}arnegie {R}idge crest suggests that the locked patches are caused by a geometrical resistance to subduction that propagates landward causing permanent deformation. {I}n 2016, the deepest subducted relief localized stress accumulation and high seismic slip, while the shallowest relief, which is associated with a weakened outer-wedge, prevented updip rupture propagation. {T}hus, at nonaccretionary margins, active outer-wedge strike-slip faults might be considered a proxy of near-trench coupling, and subducted relief a cause of plate coupling but an obstacle to the tsunami genesis when the relief is shallow.},
