Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The San Diego region had enjoyed a long period of seismic quiescence since the last damaging earthquake in 1862. This quiescence was broken in 1984 with several earthquake swarms in San Diego Bay. Because of the lack of consensus among geoscientists about future earthquake threats, a workshop was conducted that: brought together all interested geoscientists; brought together all available data for debate and discussion; evaluated the data; and identified data gaps and recommended a collective approach. Includes charts, graphs, and drawings. Extensive references.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The City of San Diego is traversed by the Holocene?active Rose Canyon Fault Zone (RCFZ). The RCFZ is a right lateral strike?slip fault with a slip rate of 1-2 mm/yr and the potential to produce a M6.9 earthquake. This project focuses on strands of the RCFZ that traverse through downtown San Diego. The RCFZ seismic hazard has a direct impact on city development via the Alquist?Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Act, which regulates structures for human occupancy based on seismic assessments. As a result, geotechnical firms have been conducting many private, small?scale studies of local fault architecture since the 1980s and have amassed an impressive amount of data. However, each report is site specific with minimal integration between neighboring sites. There exists no resource where all the data can be studied simultaneously. This project synthesizes existing geotechnical data into an interactive geodatabase to elucidate RCFZ geometry and the evolution of the fault zone through downtown San Diego. The geodatabase contains geologic and geotechnical data that have been digitized from 268 reports. Using the data, fault segments were characterized as active, potentially active, or less potentially active. The results show an active zone of discontinuous fault segments trending N-S in eastern downtown. Both active and less potentially active faults are found mostly to the east, while potentially active faults are found throughout downtown. Furthermore, the research area is located at the edge of the San Diego Bay pull-apart basin, where the RCFZ steps offshore to the Descanso fault. Few field studies have examined the character of bounding faults as they approach releasing step-overs, which could have control on earthquake rupture dynamics. To identify patterns between fault strike and fault activity on the RCFZ, fault strike of each segment was determined and plotted on rose diagrams. These results showed active faults and less potentially active faults to have similar strike orientations, with mean directions of N12°W and N17°W, respectively, while potentially active faults plotted with a mean direction of N17°E. These results may indicate a change in stress orientation through time, or a change related to step-over evolution.

Excerpt: The Hayward Fault Zone is a geologic fault zone capable of generating significantly destructive earthquakes. This fault is about 74 mi (119 km) long, situated mainly along the western base of the hills on the east side of San Francisco Bay. It runs through densely-populated areas, including the cities of Richmond, El Cerrito, Berkeley, Oakland, San Leandro, Hayward, Fremont, and San Jose. The Hayward Fault is parallel to its more famous (and much longer) westerly neighbor, the San Andreas Fault, which lies offshore and through the San Francisco peninsula. To the east of the Hayward lies the Calaveras Fault. In 2007 the Hayward Fault was discovered to merge with the Calaveras Fault east of San Jose at a depth of four miles, with the potential of creating earthquakes much larger than previously expected.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Newport-Inglewood-Rose Canyon (NIRC) fault system is a major structural boundary that extends along coastal southern California from Los Angeles to San Diego. The material presented in this thesis provides new data that resolve uncertainties in fault behavior for the southern segment, the Rose Canyon fault (RCF). Stratigraphic evidence from newly opened paleoseismic trenches are used to interpret six surface-rupturing earthquakes on the RCF in the past 3,300 years. Paleoearthquake ages constrained by radiocarbon dating suggest a late-Holocene recurrence interval of ~700 years, with the most recent large-magnitude event occurring in the mid-1700s. When combined with previous paleoseismic studies, the new paleoearthquake ages show an apparent temporal correlation of earthquake occurrence between the southern and northern segments of the NIRC fault system, suggesting a possible northward-cascading sequence of earthquakes. The RCF includes a significant onshore segment, which provides an opportunity to use traditional geodetic techniques to resolve slip rate. Surface velocities from a combined campaign and continuous GPS network that spans the RCF are used to constrain elastic half-space models. The best-fitting model suggests a rate that is toward the higher end of geologic estimates, as well as a potential rheological contrast across the fault trace. The GPS surface velocities further suggest a more easterly trace for the RCF, and a possible connection with the San Miguel--Vallecitos fault system. South of downtown San Diego, the RCF splays out into a complex network of faults that accommodate the subsidence beneath San Diego Bay. Using legacy multi-channel seismic data and recently collected high-resolution chirp profiles, the fault structure and stratigraphic character beneath San Diego Bay is examined. Gridded surface horizons and fault maps show widespread down-to-the-east displacement. Fault orientations in the western portion of the San Diego Bay pull-apart basin are well described by a Rose Canyon-Descanso pull-apart basin, but faults in the eastern portion of the basin lie outside of this model and exhibit the wrong sense of displacement. A separate but related Rose Canyon-San Miguel-Vallecitos pull-apart basin may explain the faulting seen in the eastern portion of the basin.
