Welcome and Thanks Goals: 1)Solicit new information 2) Tell you what we are up to 3)Get feedback on things you like or dislike To get right to it: Segmentation vs the “inversion” Geodetic slip rates and block models Fault zones to link small faults and assign rates

With a sedimentation rate of ~1 m/100 yrs, and individual clastic units representing on average 5-10 years, we can distinguish events that are likely separated by decades. Here are two earthquakes separated by just 20-30 cms, and thus likely 20-30 years (as the C-14 shows).
