The structural architecture of seismogenic faults, Sierra Nevada, California; implications for earthquake rupture processes
Earthquake ruptures along tectonically active faults nucleate predominantly at depths of 5 to 12km in the crust, so the portions of faults that slip in these events cannot be directly observed. The geometry and composition of seismogenic faults controls the nucleation, propagation and termination of...
