Book Synopsis Consensus Preferred Recurrence-interval and Vertical Slip-rate Estimates by : William R. Lund

This book was released on 2005-06-30 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results of the Utah Quaternary Fault Parameters Working Group (hereafter referred to as the Working Group) review and evaluation of Utah’s Quaternary fault paleoseismic-trenching data. The purpose of the review was to (1) critically evaluate the accuracy and completeness of the paleoseismictrenching data, particularly regarding earthquake timing and displacement, (2) where the data permit, assign consensus, preferred recurrence-interval (RI) and vertical slip-rate (VSR) estimates with appropriate confidence limits to the faults/fault sections under review, and (3) identify critical gaps in the paleoseismic data and recommend where and what kinds of additional paleoseismic studies should be performed to ensure that Utah’s earthquake hazard is adequately documented and understood. It is important to note that, with the exception of the Great Salt Lake fault zone, the Working Group’s review was limited to faults/fault sections having paleoseismic-trenching data. Most Quaternary faults/fault sections in Utah have not been trenched, but many have RI and VSR estimates based on tectonic geomorphology or other non-trench-derived studies. Black and others compiled the RI and VSR data for Utah’s Quaternary faults, both those with and without trenches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large, damaging earthquakes can happen in many parts of Utah. Therefore, when choosing where to live in this state, we should be aware of the earthquake risk. It is important to know what potential earthquake hazards exist in an area, and what action we can take to reduce the earthquake risk to ourselves and our families. This brochure introduces homebuyers and others to earthquake hazards so that informed choices can be made when selecting homes, building sites, or hazard-reduction measures.

Book Synopsis Post-Provo Paleoearthquake Chronology of the Brigham City Segment, Wasatch Fault Zone, Utah by : James McCalpin
Download or read book Post-Provo Paleoearthquake Chronology of the Brigham City Segment, Wasatch Fault Zone, Utah written by James McCalpin and published by Utah Geological Survey. This book was released on 2002 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Utah Geological Survey Miscellaneous Publication, Post-Provo Paleoearthquake Chronology of the Brigham City Segment, Wasatch Fault Zone, Utah, is the eleventh report in the Paleoseismology of Utah series. This series makes the results of paleoseismic investigations in Utah available to geoscientists, engineers, planners, public officials, and the general public. These studies provide critical information on paleoearthquake parameters such as timing, recurrence, displacement, slip rate, and fault geometry which can be used to characterize potential seismic sources and evaluate the long-term seismic hazard presented by Utah’s Quaternary faults. This report presents the results of the most extensive single paleoseismic-trenching project yet conducted on the Wasatch fault zone. The purpose of the study was to lengthen the paleoseismic chronology for the Brigham City segment of the Wasatch fault zone beyond the 6,000-year record previously available, and to resolve questions regarding the irregular pattern of paleoearthquakes reported by earlier workers for the Brigham City segment. This study makes extensive use of radiocarbon, thermoluminescence, and infrared stimulated luminescence dating techniques to develop a real-time chronology of past surface-faulting earthquakes.
Book Synopsis Earthquake Site Conditions in the Wasatch Front Corridor, Utah by : Greg N. McDonald
Download or read book Earthquake Site Conditions in the Wasatch Front Corridor, Utah written by Greg N. McDonald and published by Utah Geological Survey. This book was released on 2008-08 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This CD contains a 41-page report and a 1:150,000-scale map defining seismic site conditions for the Wasatch Front urban corridor. This mapping, partially funded through the U.S. Geological Survey’s National Hazards Reduction Program, provides a basis for predicting how certain soils and bedrock types may respond to ground-motion amplification in a large-magnitude earthquake on the Wasatch fault. Average shear-wave velocities were used for the upper 30 meters and surficial geologic mapping to delineate and characterize earthquake-site-conditions units that relate to International Building Code site classes. Better understanding of soil properties and earthquake-site effects for the densely populated Wasatch Front allows for improved earthquake engineering and emergency planning and response. 41 pages + 1 plate

Book Synopsis History of Late Holocene Earthquakes at the Willow Creek Site and on the Nephi Segment, Wasatch Fault Zone, Utah by : Anthony J. Crone
Download or read book History of Late Holocene Earthquakes at the Willow Creek Site and on the Nephi Segment, Wasatch Fault Zone, Utah written by Anthony J. Crone and published by Utah Geological Survey. This book was released on 2014-09-15 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 43-page report presents new data from the Willow Creek site that provides well-defined and narrow bounds on the times of the three youngest earthquakes on the southern strand of the Nephi segment, Wasatch Fault zone, and refines the time of the youngest earthquake to about 200 years ago. This is the youngest surface rupture on the entire Wasatch fault zone, which occurred about a century or less before European settles arrived in Utah. Two trenches at the Willow Creek site exposed three scarp-derived colluvial wedges that are evidence of three paleoearthquakes. OxCal modeling of ages from Willow Creek indicate that paleoearthquake WC1 occurred at 0.2 ± 0.1 ka, WC2 occurred at 1.2 ± 0.1 ka, and WC3 occurred at 1.9 ± 0.6 ka. Stratigraphic constraints on the time of paleoearthquake WC4 are extremely poor, so OxCal modeling only yields a broadly constrained age of 4.7 ± 1.8 ka. Results from the Willow Creek site significantly refine the times of late Holocene earthquakes on the Southern strand of the Nephi segment, and this result, when combined with a reanalysis of the stratigraphic and chronologic information from previous investigations at North Creek and Red Canyon, yield a stronger basis of correlating individual earthquakes between all three sites.
