GPS velocities along the Central San Andreas Fault relative to station KNOB. Green triangles are recently added HPGN sites; velocities should be available for these sites within the next few months.
Project Summary |
We are using campaign and continuous GPS data from the BAVU dataset, as well as stacked ERS1 & ERS2 interferograms to improve our knowledge of the regional deformation field and creep rates on the Central San Andreas fault system.
Some of the current questions we hope to answer include: How much of these faults is creeping and how much is locked? What kinds of fault geometries (dip, locking depth) are required by our datasets? and What kind of fault zone rheologies are required?
