Behavior of the southernmost San Andreas fault during the past 300 years by Sieh, Kerry, Williams, Patrick L.

“…Along two short reaches of the San Andreas fault in the Coachella Valley, measurements of offset geological deposits and man-made structures and from alignment arrays and creep meters show that slip rates of 2–4 mm/yr near Indio and near the Salton Sea have persisted for the past three centuries. …”

Triggered slip along the San Andreas fault after the 8 July 1986 North Palm Springs earthquake by Williams, Patrick L., McGill, Sally Fagerson, Sieh, Kerry, Allen, Clarence R., Louie, John N.

“…Triggered slip associated with the North Palm Springs earthquake occurred in these two areas again, but also extended farther northwest into the Indio Hills, where as much as 9 mm of dextral slip occurred. …”

Long-term slip rate of the southern San Andreas Fault from 10Be-26Al surface exposure dating of an offset alluvial fan by Ryerson, Frederick J., Van der Woerd, Jérôme, Klinger, Yann, Sieh, Kerry, Tapponnier, Paul, Mériaux, Anne-Sophie

“…We determine the long-term slip rate of the southern San Andreas Fault in the southeastern Indio Hills using 10Be and 26Al isotopes to date an offset alluvial fan surface. …”
