Development of offset channels across the San Andreas fault

Auteur :

Description :
The San Andreas fault offsets some small gullies incising the relatively flat surfaces in the Carrizo Plain, California. This study analyzes the field-measured planform geometry and longitudinal profiles of some channels offset by the San Andreas fault as a trial to define the manner of response or adjustment of streams to strike-slip fault displacement.
