Polyphase kinematic history of transpression along the Mecca Hills segment of the San Andreas fault, southern California
Bergh, Steffen G; Sylvester, Arthur G.; Damte, Alula; Indrevær, Kjetil (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-04-09)Miocene–Pliocene sedimentary rocks in the Mecca Hills, southern California, were uplifted and deformed by transpression along a restraining bend in the San Andreas fault trace between the Orocopia and San Bernardino Mountains in Pleistocene time. This paper presents field evidence for three stages of structural evolution of a complex, asymmetric wedge-like flower structure, expressed as: (1) ... -
Tectonic evolution of the Indio Hills segment of the San Andreas fault in southern California, southwestern USA
Koehl, Jean-Baptiste P.; Bergh, Steffen Gunnar; Sylvester, Arthur G. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-08-01)Transpressional uplift domains of inverted Pliocene–Pleistocene basin fill along the San Andreas fault zone in Coachella Valley, southern California (USA), are characterized by fault linkage and segmentation and deformation partitioning. The Indio Hills wedge-shaped uplift block is located in between two boundary fault strands, the Indio Hills fault to the northeast and the main San Andreas fault ...
