Active deformation of the South Granite Mountain Fault System : reactivated compressional faults vs. extensional overprinting
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)Quaternary faulting in and around Wyoming's Wind River Basin may pose a moderate earthquake risk for dams and other infrastructure within the region. The South Granite Mountains Fault Zone, located adjacent to the Wind ... -
Constraining the slip rate of the Owl Lake Fault by using LiDAR data and fault scarp degradation models
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)The Owl Lake Fault is an active, 19 to 25-km-long, left-lateral strike-slip fault that divaricates NE from the Garlock Fault toward Death Valley in eastern California and transfers regional strain to the fault systems in ... -
Neotectonic assessment of the southern Wassuk Range, western Nevada
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)Active deformation across western North America is distributed across a broad zone spanning from the San Andreas fault system to the Basin and Range Province. The Wassuk Range fault zone (WRFZ), located within the Walker ... -
Structural geology, tectonic geomorphology, and neotectonics of the central Afar Rift, Ethiopia and Djibouti
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)The central Afar depression offers an opportunity for quantitative analysis of the final stages of continental breakup at a divergent triple junction. Here, Quaternary faulting dissects Plio-Pleistocene flood basalts, ...
