A more precise chronology of earthquakes produced by the San Andreas fault in Southern California
Improved methods of radiocarbon analysis have enabled us to date more precisely the earthquake ruptures of the San Andreas fault that are recorded in the sediments at Pallett Creek. Previous dates of these events had 95% confidence errors of 50–100 calendar years. New error limits are less than 23 c...
