Earthquake Geology, Hazard, Urban Form and Social Vulnerability along the San Andreas Fault

abstract: The San Andreas Fault (SAF) is the primary structure within a system of faults accommodating motion between the North American and Pacific plates. Physical models of faulting and characterizations of seismic hazard are informed by investigations of paleoseismology, slip distribution, and s...
