Vor 4 Tagen · The San Andreas Fault is a massive crack in the Earth's crust that causes earthquakes in California. It's been active for millions of years and has shaped the state's landscapes and culture. Scientists study the fault to understand earthquakes and plate tectonics. It moves slowly, influences ecosystems, and even forms hot springs.
Vor 3 Tagen · Introduction to the San Andreas Fault. The San Andreas Fault Line is one of the best known and most studied geological features in the world. This transform fault, which runs approximately 800 miles (1,300 km) through the state of California, marks the boundary between the Pacific and North American tectonic plates. The constant movement and ...

Vor 3 Tagen · In this overview Judith Chester (Professor of Geology, Texas A&M University) explains the efforts involved in drilling SAFOD's 3-kilometer deep hole into the San Andreas Fault and the importance of the results to the scientific community.
Vor 5 Tagen · Much of this motion is accommodated east of the San Andreas Fault by the faults of the East Bay fault system. A major tool for reconstructing the spatial and temporal history of fault motion is the correlation of offset Neogene volcanic rocks. These Neogene volcanics within the California Coast Ranges formed in association with the slab gap that grew as the Mendocino Triple Junction migrated ...
Vor 4 Tagen · The San Andreas Fault in California is perhaps the most well-known geologic fault in the world. It stretches approximately 1,300 kilometers (800 miles) and is responsible for numerous earthquakes in the region. Faults can move slowly or rapidly. Faults can exhibit different rates of movement.
