Hidden Fault System Discovered Under California via Tiny Earthquakes
Researchers are using advanced seismic monitoring of micro-earthquakes to map a complex and previously unknown fault system where the San Andreas fault intersects with the Cascadia subduction zone in Northern California. This detailed mapping provides crucial insights into the region's tectonic processes, potentially improving earthquake hazard assessments in this high-risk area.
