Lynch, PhD, author of SanAndreasFault.org.San Andreas Map: The red line on this map follows the surface trace of the San Andreas Fault across California. Areas to the east (right) of the fault are on the North American tectonic plate. Areas to the west (left) of the fault are part ...
Faultline Press has produced this adaptation titled "Mary's Immigration Story."To bring out the emotional and dramatic elements of the story, we transformed it into a series of vignettes through editorial revisions and annotations, adding illustrations, photos, and a map to show her land journey...

(Geological map of France, 1:50,000, La Javie sheet), though this has not been proven. Although cited widely in the literature ofinversion tectonics, footwall short-cut faults have only been identified rarely, and with difficulty, on the edge of extensional faults in the Sub-alpine domain...
Yet in an instant, that crack, the San Andreas fault line, could ruin lives and cripple the national economy. In one scenario produced by the United States Geological Survey, researchers found that a big quake along theSan Andreas could kill 1,800 people, injure 55,000 and wreak $200 mill...
We acquired a ~9-km long, high-resolution reflection seismic profile in the Centennial Valley, Montana, to better understand the kinematics of basin bounding faults and their role in accommodating proposed right-lateral shear in the Northern Basin and Ra
Outcrop locations and a simplified geologic map of the central Longmenshan fault zone (modified from Burchfiel et al., 2008), with the surface rupture (red lines) of the 2008 Mw 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake taken from Xu et al. (2009). The inset shows location of the study area. The red yell...
THE QUATERNARY FAULT AND FOLD DATABASE OF ALASKA: GIS COVERAGES AND MAP COMPILATION TECHNIQUESAlaska is the most seismically active region of the United States, however little information exists on the location, style of deformation, and slip rates of Quaternary faults. Historic earthquakes along ...
To further validate the proposed methods, an additional continuous nonlinear system dataset from the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) domain is utilized [34]. Developed by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and the United States Department of En...
