Deep-water turbidites as Holocene earthquake proxies: the Cascadia subduction zone and Northern San Andreas Fault systems

Deep-water turbidites as Holocene earthquake proxies: the Cascadia subduction zone and Northern San Andreas Fault systems

New stratigraphic evidence from the Cascadia margin demonstrates that 13 earthquakes ruptured the margin from
 Vancouver Island to at least the California border following the catastrophic eruption of Mount Mazama. These 13 events
 have occurred with an average repeat time of ?? 600...
