New Paper in Geosphere

The paper shows the connectivity of faults and the directivity of rupture control whether earthquakes can pass through the San Gorgonio Pass.

Tarnowski, Jennifer, Christodoulos Kyriakopoulos, David. D. Oglesby,  Michele L. Cooke, and Aviel Stern, 2022. The effects of pre-stress assumptions on dynamic rupture with complex fault geometry in the San Gorgonio Pass, CA region, Geosphere. https://doi.org/10.1130/GES02511.1

Initial magnitudes of shear (A) and normal (B) traction vectors for the regional stress models. GH, ESG, WSG, and SB indicate the Garnet Hill, eastern and western San Gorgonio Pass, and San Bernardino fault segments, respectively. Darker blue colors indicate lower stress, and red colors indicate relatively higher stress.
