Faulting and Folding of the Transgressive Surface Offshore Ventura Records Deformational Events in the Holocene

Faulting and Folding of the Transgressive Surface Offshore Ventura Records Deformational Events in the Holocene

Identifying the offshore thrust faults of the Western Transverse Ranges that could produce large earthquakes and seafloor uplift is essential to assess potential geohazards for the region. The Western Transverse Ranges in southern California are an E-W trending fold-and-thrust system that extends of...
