The blue posts mark the path of the San Andreas Fault near Point Reyes.

The fault that ruptured on January 12, 2010, was a north-dipping thrust fault located north of the Enriquillo fault.

Okay, so I like to call it "Jen's fault". This is an active fault that one of our graduate students (Jennifer) has done a bit of work on, about three miles south of Chadron, Nebraska. Here it is exposed along a road cut.

Just hint a fault, and hesitate dislike..."

The leccy box in my old close.

This was from a set of photos taken inside the close i used to live in.

I had been planning to take photos of it for a while and unfortunatly i left it a little too late and only managed to get around 30 or so pictures before we had to move out.

Evidence of seizmic activity in angled layers makes for a lovely photo.

Annoying or what?

Above the Coire Uaigneich granophyre and Middle Jurassic sediments the hornfelsed basalts are seen to be faulted due to intrusion of Coire Uaigneich Granophyre. Uplift probably induced listric normal faults in the basalts similar to Ardnamurchan uplift and consequent mass wasting processes.

Hollister, California

In the San Francisco Bay area there are three major faults, from west to east the San Andreas, the Hayward, and the Calaveras; all are part of the San Andreas fault system. All of these are "right-lateral strike-slip faults," which means that the motion is predominantly horizontal, with the land on the west side of the fault moving north.

South of the Bay Area the Hayward and Calaveras merge into the San Andreas. Hollister is located just north of where this happens, right on top of the southern end of the Calaveras fault.

What makes Hollister particularly interesting is that from San Juan Bautista to just north of Parkfield the faults in the San Andreas system are not "stuck": instead of moving only during major earthquakes, they continuously "creep." As a result of this creep, Hollister is being slowly ripped in two, for the most part along a remarkably narrow zone running right through the middle of town.

The rate of creep is inconsistent, and has been measured at between 6 and 15mm per year at various times throughout the 20th century. Underground pipes, road paving, curbing, and foundations all show signs of being gradually shifted apart. Notice how the distortion always bends structures to the right- no matter from which side of the fault the photo was taken. Also notice that the motion is horizontal: the ground is remaining level as it moves. Together, these two observations define right-lateral strike-slip motion.
