Thermal Fluid And Fault Interactions At The Intersection Of Two Faults, Agua Caliente, California, Rebekah Wood, James Evans Sep 2011

Thermal Fluid And Fault Interactions At The Intersection Of Two Faults, Agua Caliente, California, Rebekah Wood, James Evans

Rebekah Wood

Agua Caliente Springs lies at a unique intersection between the NNW-trending Elsinore fault and the 40° northeast-dipping, likely inactive West Salton detachment fault; it provides an opportunity to study damage zone geometry, fault behavior in crystalline rocks, a left-stepover, microseismicity, and the influence of thermal fluids on rock deformation. The Elsinore fault bounds the northwestern flank of the Tierra Blanca Mountains with strike-slip and normal motion; the detachment fault wraps around the northernmost portion of the mountains. Damage along the Elsinore ranges in thickness from a narrow slip plane to > 100 m along the eastern flank of the Tierra Blanca …
