Long dormancy, low slip rate, and similar slip-per-event for the Emerson fault, eastern California shear zone
Excavations in a playa along the 1992 rupture of the Emerson fault reveal evidence of two paleoseismic events, with only one large prehistoric rupture in the past 15 millennia. Accelerator mass spectrometer radiocarbon ages of charcoal from playa sediments and from fault-scarp colluvium directly ben...
