TY - JOUR T1 - Earthquakes generated from bedding plane-parallel reverse faults above an active wedge thrust, Seattle fault zone JF - Geological Society of America Bulletin Y1 - 2008 A1 - Kelsey, Harvey M.

AB - A key question in earthquake hazard analysis is whether individual faults within fault zones represent independent seismic sources. For the Seattle fault zone, an upper plate structure within the Cascadia convergent margin, evaluating seismic hazard requires understanding how north-side-up, bedding-plane reverse faults, which generate late Holocene fault scarps, interact with the north-vergent master-ramp thrust and overlying backthrust of the fault zone. A regional uplift at A.D. 900-930 involved an earthquake that nucleated at depth and included slip on both the master-ramp thrust and the backthrust. This earthquake also included slip on some of the VL - 120 IS - 11-12 N1 - id: 2019; PT: J; UT: WOS:000260737900015 JO - Earthquakes generated from bedding plane-parallel reverse faults above an active wedge thrust, Seattle fault zone ER -
