Localized and distributed creep along the southern San Andreas Fault
We investigate the spatial pattern of surface creep and off-fault deformation along the southern segment of the San Andreas Fault using a combination of multiple interferometric synthetic aperture radar viewing geometries and survey-mode GPS occupations of a dense array crossing the fault. Radar observations from Envisat during the period 2003–2010 were used to separate the pattern of horizonta...
متن کاملUplift and erosion of the San Bernardino Mountains associated with transpression along the San Andreas fault, California, as constrained by radiogenic helium thermochronometry
Apatite helium thermochronometry provides new constraints on the tectonic history of a recently uplifted crystalline mass adjacent to the San Andreas fault. By documenting aspects of the low-temperature (40°1 00°C) thermal history of the tectonic blocks of the San Bernardino Mountains in southern California, we have placed new constraints on the magnitude and timing of uplift. Old helium ages (...
متن کاملFault creep along the southern San Andreas from interferometric synthetic aperture radar, permanent scatterers, and stacking
[1] Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) provides a practical means of mapping creep along major strike-slip faults. The small amplitude of the creep signal (<10 mm/yr), combined with its short wavelength, makes it difficult to extract from long time span interferograms, especially in agricultural or heavily vegetated areas. We utilize two approaches to extract the fault creep signa...
متن کاملPlate Boundary Segmentation by Stress Directions: Southern San Andreas fault, California
We propose a new method for defining segmentation of plate boundaries and faults, based on the directions of the stress tensor. Estimates for these directions are obtained by minimizing the average misfit between the theoretical and observed slip directions on fault planes of earthquake focal mechanisms. The misfit, f, for an individual earthquake is the parameter we use for defining the segmen...
