英文摘要 | The Eastern Transverse Ranges (ETR) province of California contains a system of E-W-trending left-lateral faults accommodating clockwise block rotation between the San Andreas Fault (SAF) system in the Coachella Valley and the Eastern California Shear Zone (ECSZ) in the Mojave Desert. Building upon established geometric relationships, we estimate that this rotation across the ETR may transfer right-lateral strain from the SAF to the ECSZ at a time-averaged rate of similar to 4.3-7.7 mm/yr. Through geomorphic mapping and the analysis of 38 Be-10 surface exposure samples, we derive a long-term slip rate of 1.26 +/- 0.50 (2 sigma) mm/yr over the late Pleistocene, yet analysis of the displacement record indicates a rate decrease similar to 71 kya. While a rate change on this fault could have implications for possible plate boundary reorganization in this area, we argue that this slip rate variability more likely reflects routine fluctuation about a steady lifetime slip rate. |
