Holocene slip rates along the Owens Valley fault, California: Implications for the recent evolution of the Eastern California Shear Zone

One of the largest historical earthquakes in California occurred in 1872 along the Owens Valley fault located along the western margin of the Eastern California Shear Zone. New paleoseismic and optically stimulated luminescence data are the first to bracket the timing of the pre-1872 rupture to between 3.3 6 0.3 and 3.8 6 0.3 ka. These data yield an earthquake recurrence interval between 4100 a...

Kinematics of the Eastern California shear zone: Evidence for slip transfer from Owens and Saline Valley fault zones to Fish Lake Valley fault zone

Late Quaternary slip rates and satellite-based geodetic data for the western Great Basin constrain regional fault-slip distribution and evolution. The geologic slip rate on the Fish Lake Valley fault zone (the northwest extension of the Furnace Creek fault zone) increases northward from about 3 to 5 mm/yr, in agreement with modeled geodetic data. The increase coincides with the intersections of...

THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERISTY DEPARTMENT OF GEOSCIENCES Estimating the Pleistocene Slip Rate of the Owens Valley Fault, California

Slip rates of the right-lateral Owens Valley Fault lie at the center of an ongoing debate over the rheology and mechanics of lithospheric deformation in eastern California. Slip rates determined from paleoseismic records of surface rupture yield Late Pleistocene – Holocene rates of < 1mm/yr to ~2 mm/yr. The decadal velocity field across the valley, however, approaches ~6 mm/yr of right-lateral ...
