Two stream beds were examined for evidence of late Holocene earthquakes on the San Andreas fault. At least nine large earthquakes have occurred along the south-central reach of the fault since the sixth century A.D. Dates and reccurrence intervals are tabulated. 5 figures, 1 table. (RWR)关...
The San Andreas Fault is a continental transform fault that runs a length of roughly 810 miles (1,300 km) through California in the United States. The fault’s motion is right-lateral strike-slip (horizontal motion). It forms the tectonic boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North Ame...
