Abstract:: High-precision GPS geodesy in the Pacific Northwest provides the first synoptic view of the along-strike variation in Cascadia margin kinematics. These results constrain interfering deformation fields in a region where typical earthquake recurrence intervals are one or more orders of magnitude longer than the decades-long history of seismic monitoring and...

Abstract:: We use regional broadband seismograms to obtain seismic moment-tensor solutions of the two September 20, 1993, Mw =6, Klamath Falls, Oregon earthquakes, their foreshock and largest aftershocks (MD>3.5). Several sub-groups with internally consistent solutions indicate activity on several fault segments and faults. From the estimated moment-tensors and depths of the...

Creator:: Yeats, Robert S.
Abstract:: In this expanded new edition of Living with Earthquakes, Robert Yeats, a leading authority on earthquakes in California and the Pacific Northwest, describes the threat posed by the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a great earthquake fault which runs for hundreds of miles offshore from British Columbia to northern California. New research...
