(2012-02-14)Recovered core samples from the San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD), located near Parkfield, CA, offer a unique opportunity to study the products of faulting and to learn about the mechanisms of slip at 3 km ...
-
(2012-02-14)The San Andreas Fault (SAF) near Parkfield, CA moves by a combination of aseismic creep and micro-earthquake slip. Measurements of in situ stress orientation, stress magnitude, and heat flow are incompatible with an ...

(2012-02-14)Spot core from the San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD) borehole provides the opportunity to characterize and quantify damage and mineral alteration of siliciclastics within an active, large-displacement ...
-
(2009-05-15)Spot cores from Phase 1 drilling of the main borehole at the San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD) were mapped to characterize the mesoscale structure and infer paleostress at depth. Cores were oriented by comparing ...
-
(2014-10-07)Two studies on the mechanical properties of smectite-rich fault gouge collected from the Central Deforming Zone (CDZ) of the San Andreas Fault (SAF) in the San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD) are presented. ...

(2013-02-06)Understanding faults is challenging but not impossible. Looking at the Punchbowl fault, an ancient trace of the San Andreas Fault in the Transverse Ranges of southern California, is one way to understand a fault that has ...
