Rockwell, Mike Oskin, Kim Le, Lewis Owen, Warren Sharp, Kate Fletcher,
Susanne Janecke, Becky Dorsey, Caitlin Lippincott, Eldon Gath and
George Jefferson
Focus: Cross-correlation
of Quaternary dating techniques, slip rates, and tectonic models in the
western Salton Trough, including stops on:
Deciphering
the neotectonics of the southern San Jacinto and Elsinore fault zones,
including slip per event and slip rate variations through time, their
lifetime slip-rates versus their latest Quaternary slip rates. Have
slip rates varied due to changing fault structure? Examining evidence
for the Early Quaternary age of the San Jacinto fault zone.
Discussions
on derivation of slip rates based on various dating techniques,
including cosmogenic 10Be, U-series, OSL, soils. Dating soils via
U-series on pedogenic carbonate. Dating Lake Cahuilla shoreline
deposits with Optically-stimulated luminescence - how good is OSL in a
nearly ideal environment?
The implications
of clast provenance and fan morphology combined with various dating
techniques in estimating slip rates. Implications of fault arrays in
mud-rich basins for paleoseismic studies. Crossing active faults-what
is the evidence and how do they do this? Implications of ramps and
flats on strike-slip faults. Fault youth and fault maturity: is this a
useful model?
Limited to
3000 top-rate Quaternary types! No exceptions! Accommodations will be
based on long-standing FOP standards - ie., we will camp.
