Relationship between the Santa Sonica, Hollywood, and Raymond faults. BY DIEGO FURTADO

 The “BIG BEND”: Cause of Compression between the Pacific Plate and North American Plate  Mountains and faults are formed: San Gabriel Mountains and Santa Monica Mountains  Transverse Range Southern Boundary Fault System: Extends from east to west unlike other California mountains

 Base of San Gabriel and Santa Monica Mountains  West- trending system of faults that extends for 200 km  Oblique-slip, reverse-slip, and strike-slip

▼ ▼ ▼ ~900 A.D ~800 A.D. ~1000 A.D – – 7.0 Santa Monica fault connects with Hollywood fault at west Beverly Hills Lineament Hollywood fault likely connects to Raymond fault at Los Angeles River floodplain 0.27 – – km 15 km 26 km
