Download or read book The San Andreas Fault Zone written by William A. Szary and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The San Andreas Fault Zone covers almost the entire length of western California. Some sections are simple while others are more complex extending from the Gulf of California through the Salton Trough into the San Gabriel and San Bernardino Mountains, through the Carrizo Plain into Parkfield, on into the San Francisco Bay, Point Reyes, and ending in the Mendocino Triple Junction. This book attempts to characterize the geologic structure, geophysics, and stratigraphy on both sides of the fault. Chapter 1 presents an overview of the setting of the San Andreas Fault System. Chapter 2 discusses the Salton Sea Trough, the Gulf of California, and the Imperial Valley. Chapter 3 presents the fault zone through the Transverse Ranges, mainly consisting of the San Gabriel and the San Bernardino Mountains. Chapter 4 addresses the creeping segment of the Carrizo Plain, Cholame, and Parkfield. Chapter 5 focuses on the San Andreas-Calaveras Fault junction along the San Benito segment. Chapter 6 discusses the South San Francisco Bay area, mainly in Santa Clara County before addressing the San Francisco Bay in Chapter 7. Chapter 8 focuses on the Point Reyes Peninsula, providing some details on the stratigraphy and structure on the peninsula. Chapter 9 closes out with a seismic review of the Mendocino Triple Junction and its interactions with the Pacific, Gorda, and North American plates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magnitude 8 is the archetypal natural disaster defined. To understand the cataclysmic earthquake that will tear California apart one day, Philip L. Fradkin has written a dramatic history of earthquakes and an eloquent guide to the San Andreas Fault, the world's best-known tectonic landscape. The author includes vivid stories of earthquakes elsewhere: in New England, the central Mississippi River Valley, New York City, Europe, and the Far East. Always, he combines human and natural drama to place the reader at the epicenter of the most instantaneous and unpredictable of all the Earth's phenomena. Following the San Andreas Fault from Cape Mecino to Mexico--canoeing the fault line in northern California and walking underground through the Hollywood fault--noted environmental historian Philip L. Fradkin reclaims the human dimensions of earthquakes from the science-dominated accounts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors of the ten chapters in this volume critically examine the geologic evidence that constrains timing and magnitude of movement on various faults of the San Andreas system, and they develop and discuss paleogeologic reconstructions based on these constraints. The volume offers new insight into the evolution of the San Andreas fault system,

Download or read book Cascadia's Fault written by Jerry Thompson and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2012-03-10 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thrillingly rendered, yet “level–headed” look at the Cascadia Subduction Zone and the devastating natural disasters it promises (Booklist) There is a crack in the earth's crust that runs roughly 31 miles offshore, approximately 683 miles from Northern California up through Vancouver Island off the coast of British Columbia. The Cascadia Subduction Zone has generated massive earthquakes over and over again throughout geologic time—at least thirty–six major events in the last 10,000 years. This fault generates a monster earthquake about every 500 years. And the monster is due to return at any time. It could happen 200 years from now, or it could be tonight. The Cascadia Subduction Zone is virtually identical to the offshore fault that wrecked Sumatra in 2004. It will generate the same earthquake we saw in Sumatra, at magnitude nine or higher, sending crippling shockwaves across a far wider area than any California quake. Slamming into Sacramento, Portland, Seattle, Victoria, and Vancouver, it will send tidal waves to the shores of Australia, New Zealand, and Japan, damaging the economies of the Pacific Rim countries and their trading partners for years to come. In light of recent massive quakes in Haiti, Chile, and Mexico, Cascadia's Fault not only tells the story of this potentially devastating earthquake and the tsunamis it will spawn, it also warns us about an impending crisis almost unprecedented in modern history.
