Late quaternary activity and seismic potential of the Santa Monica fault system, Los Angeles, California
The Santa Monica fault is a 40-km-long, oblique left-lateral reverse fault that extends through the densely urbanized northwestern Los Angeles, California, area and offshore parallel to the Malibu coast. The fault exhibits near-surface strain partitioning in paleoseismologic trenches, and has underg...
