Dating and Characterizing Late Holocene Earthquakes Using Paleomagnetics

Dating and Characterizing Late Holocene Earthquakes Using Paleomagnetics

<p>In this thesis I apply paleomagnetic techniques to paleoseismological problems. I investigate the use of secular-variation magnetostratigraphy to date prehistoric earthquakes; I identify liquefaction remanent magnetization (LRM), and I quantify coseismic deformation within a fault zone by m...
