2010 SCEC Annual Meeting: Southern San Andreas Fault Evaluation (SoSAFE) Workshop

Convener: Kate Scharer, Tom Rockwell
Date: Sunday, September 12, 2010 (9:30 am - 12 noon)
Location: Horizon Ballroom I, Hilton Palm Springs Resort
Participants: view list of registrants

The primary goal of the Southern San Andreas Fault Evaluation project is to understand the timing of and slip due to earthquakes that occurred on the southern San Andreas and San Jacinto faults over the last 2000 years. This workshop will combine both individual presentations and group discussion. The presentations include summaries of major results of SoSAFE research projects. Discussions are designed to address field- and technology-related challenges in paleoseismology and slip rate studies.

Agenda:

09:30	Field and LiDAR measurements of offsets along the Clark fault (J. Barrett Salisbury) and the southernmost San Andreas (Pat Williams)
09:50	Earthquakes and offsets in the Carrizo Plain (Sinan Akciz)
10:10	Discussion of observations, approaches, uncertainties in field and LiDAR measurements of slip
10:30	Break
10:35	Earthquakes and slip rates from Mystic Lake area, San Jacinto fault (Nate Onderdonk/Tom Rockwell/Sally McGill)
10:55	Salton Sea: new CHIRP data and normal fault activity (Graham Kent/Neal Driscoll)
11:15	San Gorgonio Pass update (Dick Heermance/Doug Yule)
11:30	Earthquake correlations through the Mojave section (Kate Scharer)
11:40	Discussion: Earthquake response on the SAF. Given experience in recent earthquakes, what technologies should be adopted? Should we assign areas or other coordination given likely limitations to internet access?
