Book Holocene Geologic Slip Rate for the Mission Creek Strand of the Southern San Andreas Fault  CA

Download or read book Holocene Geologic Slip Rate for the Mission Creek Strand of the Southern San Andreas Fault CA written by Rosemarie C. Fryer and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The San Andreas Fault is the primary structure accommodating relative plate motions between the Pacific and North American plates along the southwestern margin of North America. The northern San Andreas Fault (SAF) segment ruptured in 1906 and the central segment releases strain primarily by continuous creep. The south-central Mojave section of SAF ruptured in 1857, but the Coachella Valley section farthest south has not ruptured historically. The Coachella Valley section is therefore considered overdue for an earthquake because it has exceeded its average recurrence interval of ~150-200 years. In the northern Coachella Valley, the Southern SAF (SSAF) splays into three fault strands: the Mission Creek, Banning, and Garnet Hill strands. The NW-striking Mission Creek strand extends from the Indio Hills into the San Bernardino Mountains, whereas the Banning and Garnet Hill strands strike WNW and transfer slip into the San Gorgonio Pass region. Together, the three faults accommodate ~20 mm/yr of right-lateral motion based on geodetic measurements. Determining how slip is partitioned between these faults and how the slip rates have varied over different timescales is critical for southern California seismic hazard models. The purpose of this project was to establish a Holocene geologic slip rate for the Mission Creek strand of the SSAF at the Three Palms slip rate site in the southeast Indio Hills. At the Three Palms Site, located northwest of Biskra Palms, three alluvial fans sourced from three distinct catchments have been offset by the Mission Creek strand. The central portion of these fans is best preserved and records a right lateral displacement of ~57 ± 3 meters. Uranium-series dating of pedogenic carbonate rinds constrain the minimum depositional age of this fan. U-series dates give a standard corrected weighted mean average of 3.49 ± 0.92 ka, yielding a maximum slip rate of 16 +6.1/-3.8 mm/yr. Three samples from an individual clast give a nearly identical isochron age of 3.3 ± 0.6 ka, which provides confidence in the weighted average age. This Holocene maximum slip rate overlaps within error of the previously determined late Pleistocene slip rate measured at Biskra Palms of 12-22 mm/yr, suggesting that the Mission Creek strand slip rate has remained constant over these timescales and that it has remained the dominant fault accommodating slip at the southeast Indio Hills over the past ~50 kyr.
