Fun with the Qfaults on-line database

Here is the main link to the Qfaults web site - start here:

• http://earthquake.usgs.gov/regional/qfaults/

Now, try going to this link, then typing in San Andreas as the fault name.

• http://gldims.cr.usgs.gov/webapps/cfusion/Sites/qfault/index.cfm

It should return more links, and for each of the 10 section you can then click to bring up various levels of detailed information about each fault section.

This is a very nice compilation of references by Bill Bryant and colleagues from the California Geological Survey, and a convenient way to look up published information.
