Small Fractures Caused by the 2019 Ridgecrest Earthquake Sequence: Insights From 3D Coseismic Displacement and Uniaxial Loading Rock Experiments
The moment magnitude (Mw) 6.4 and 7.1 Ridgecrest earthquake sequence that occurred on July 4 and 6, 2019, ruptured a conjugate fault system within the eastern California shear zone. In addition to the ∼50 km surface ruptures, the sequence activated a series of structures with lengths ranging from 1...
