California Faults Moved Quietly After Baja Quake
#2
I have not gone to your link but will later. I really need to read some scientific papers on the El Major (spelling?) quake, because I know it broke a bunch of shallow faults, some of which were not steep. But, I want to know what the full geometry of the rupture was: was the deep quake on a non-steep fault or faults, and was it as complex as the shallow rupture in outcrop.

I'm almost ready to submit a manuscript on complex faulting including strike-slip motion (or oblique) on moderately-dipping faults, offshore Newport Beach to San Diego, and it is always good to have analogues.
