San Andreas Fault - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
2012年1月18日 · The San Jacinto Fault (26) splays off the San Andreas at San Bernardino, and the two faults frame the Jacinto and Santa Rosa Mountains (part of the Peninsular Ranges). Although the San Andreas Fault proper ends along the eastern side of the Salton Sea, the greater San Andreas transform system continues southward.
The San Andreas Fault System: Complexities Along a Major …
2019年1月1日 · The San Andreas fault system is a 1300-km-long transform boundary that accommodates motion between the North American and Pacific Plates. New technologies and data reveal rich details about the present configuration of faults, distribution of strain, and associated seismic hazard on this complex network of faults.
San Andreas Fault - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
The San Andreas Fault is a transform fault located in coastal California where plates slip sideways past each other, generating damaging earthquakes due to plate shear. AI generated definition based on: Encyclopedia of Physical Science and Technology (Third Edition), 2003
Spatial-temporal characterization of the San Andreas Fault by fault ...
2021年6月1日 · The San Andreas Fault (SAF) at Parkfield, California has been taken as a seismic experimental site since the 1970s. The San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD) shows a ~200-m-wide damage zone with a seismic velocity reduction of ~25–30% within the mature SAF at ~3 km depth. •
Seismicity and fault geometry of the San Andreas fault around …
2016年5月23日 · The San Andreas fault (SAF) is an approximately 1100-km-long right-lateral strike-slip fault that forms a plate boundary between the Pacific and North American plates along the west coast of the US (Catchings et al., 2002; Fig. 1).
Crustal structure across the San Andreas Fault, southern California ...
2000年6月15日 · The 1300 km long San Andreas Fault System is a large transform boundary separating the North America plate from the Pacific plate. In the top 15 to 20 km of the crust, the plate motion takes place in the form of episodic big earthquakes or steady aseismic slipping (creeping) along the San Andreas Fault (SAF) and, in some places, several other ...
Tectonic geomorphology of the San Andreas Fault zone from high ...
2009年12月1日 · The south central San Andreas Fault (SAF; Fig. 1) is manifest at the surface by some of the most well preserved tectonic geomorphology at 10s to 1000s of meter scale in the world (Fig. 2; e.g., Wallace, 1975, Wallace and Schulz, 1983, Wallace, 1991).
Geophysical images of the creeping segment of the San Andreas …
2004年7月19日 · Within the creeping segment south of Hollister, CA, the San Andreas fault is characterized by a zone of low resistivity extending from the San Andreas fault to the Calaveras fault. This zone of low resistivity is imaged on both profiles and in the upper 2–3 km is attributed to fluid filled voids and fractures within the brecciated and damaged ...
Lithology and internal structure of the San Andreas fault at depth ...
2011年10月1日 · The San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD) borehole near Parkfield, CA (Fig. 1) transects the San Andreas Fault (SAF) at approximately 3 km depth where aseismic creep occurs just 10's to 100's of meters up-dip from a region of persistent micro-earthquake activity (Ellsworth et al., 2005, Hickman et al., 2004, Hickman et al., 2007, Thurber et al., 2004, …
Response of deformation patterns to reorganization of the …
2016年12月14日 · The southern San Andreas fault (SAF) system is an intricate network of faults that define the Pacific–North America plate boundary in southern California (Fig. 1). Shear within transform plate boundaries is most efficiently accommodated by strike-slip on straight vertical faults such as the Cholame–Carrizo segment of the central SAF.
