2011 Distribution of Slip in Large Earthquakes UCERF3 Workshop
Conveners: Ned Field and the Working Group on California Earthquake Probabilities
Dates: June 11, 2011
Location: Embassy Suites Mandalay Beach, Oxnard, CA
Summary: This workshop will address the following: a) slip distribution along strike, especially when multiple faults are involved; b) slip distribution down dip and whether larger events penetrate deeper (important for resolving current mag-area discrepancies); and c) theoretical and observational constraints on the propensity for ruptures to jump from one fault to another.
