Magnetic and gravity modelling was completed along two E-W transects offshore central Oregon. These models indicate that the backstop-forming western edge of the Siletz terrane has a seaward dip of approximately 40° to 49° at 44°48'N, shallowing to ~28° at 44°1 1 'N. This is a well-determined result, given available...
Two examples of Pacific rim plate boundary deformation are presented. In the first
part of the thesis crustal models are derived for the northwestern part of the Vizcaino
block in California using marine seismic and gravity data collected by the Mendocino
Triple Junction Seismic Experiment. A northwest-southeast trending kink in...
On November 6, 1988, two strong earthquakes (Mw: 7.0 and 6.8) separated
by about 13 minutes occurred in Yunnan Province, China. The aftershocks located
by Kunming Telemetered Seismic Network form a lineament approximately 120 km
long and 20 km wide with the long dimension oriented approximately N30°W. The
epicenter of...
