Test of a method for recognizing unmapped seismogenic faults.
… 2004), I have attempted to locate Holocene faults in the Point Dume 7.5 minute quadrangle of the central Santa Monica Mountains, southern California. I projected the nodal planes from each of eight focal-mechanism solutions for earthquakes with reported epicenters within the Pt. Dume …

The structural architecture of seismogenic faults, Sierra Nevada, California; implications for earthquake rupture processes
Earthquake ruptures along tectonically active faults nucleate predominantly at depths of 5 to 12km in the crust, so the portions of faults that slip in these events cannot be directly observed. The geometry and composition of seismogenic faults controls the nucleation, propagation and termination …

Linking onshore and offshore data to find seismogenic faults along the Eastern Malibu coastline.
… is to identify and characterize potentially seismogenic faults in onshore and offshore portions of the Topanga 7.5' Quadrangle using near-shore geophysical data, multibeam data, digital elevation models, earthquake focal mechanism solutions, and field work. Several faults, many of which are …

Correlation of earthquakes with seismogenic faults along the Northern Arizona Seismic Belt, southwestern margin of the Colorado Plateau.
… in the Kanab-Fredonia area of the NASB with the faults that might have generated them. Earthquakes were correlated spatially with mapped faults and distinct geomorphic lineaments within the West Kaibab fault system, which to the point has minimal documented evidence of late Neogene movement. …

Relocation of Eastern Tennessee Earthquakes Using hypoDD
… nodal plane orientations and are interpreted as seismogenic faults. In the central, most seismically active portion of the ETSZ, relocations appear to indicate a diffuse zone of hypocenters that are west-striking and north-dipping. The orientation of this zone of earthquake hypocenters is …

EASTERN BASIN AND RANGE CRUSTAL EXTENSION: A VIEW FROM SEISMOLOGY AND GEODESY
… fault geometry, and geologic slip rates on seismogenic faults. Seismic reflection data show recent activity along high-angle normal faults that become listric with depth, sole into preexisting décollements, reactivating them, and appear to be connected at depth with a regionally extensive …
