-
A.
Elsinore Fault Zone
The Elsinore Fault Zone is a major right-lateral strike-slip fault system in Southern California that accommodates part of the motion between the Pacific and North American tectonic plates and poses significant seismic hazard to the region.

B.
Greendale Fault
The Greendale Fault is a previously unrecognized tectonic fault in New Zealand’s Canterbury region that ruptured during the 2010 Canterbury earthquake, producing significant ground deformation across the rural landscape.
-
C.
Ridgecrest fault system
The Ridgecrest fault system is a network of active strike-slip faults in the eastern California desert that produced the powerful 2019 Ridgecrest earthquake sequence.
-
D.
Imperial Valley fault system
The Imperial Valley fault system is a major network of active faults in Southern California and northern Mexico that accommodates tectonic motion between the Pacific and North American plates and has produced significant earthquakes.
-
E.
Gloria Fault
