Seismicity for the Fraser River Valley in southwest British Columbia, 1992–2006. Hypocenters (black dots) were determined using hypoDD. Stations are shaded according to their contribution: black indicates a large number of phases used (>100), white indicates a moderate number (20–100), and gray indicates a small number (<20). Note that some stations used to relocate earthquakes are not shown as they are located outside the region of this map and only contribute a few arrivals.

Location map indicating the epicenter for the A.D. 1946 crustal earthquake (star) and the approximate rupture area of the offshore A.D. 1700 Cascadia subduction zone earthquake (hatched area). Question mark indicates uncertainty in the northern limit of the 1700 rupture. The circle indicates a 100 km radius from Saanich Inlet (British Columbia) and includes sites that have documented paleoseismic events. The locations of these events are Fraser Delta (#1) and southern Vancouver Island (#2) (Clague et al., 1992, 1997, 1998; Mathewes and Clague, 1994); Lake Creek-Boundary Creek fault (#3) (Nelson et al., 2007); Discovery Bay (#4); Swanton Marsh (#5) (Williams and Hutchinson, 2000; Williams et al., 2005); north Whidbey Island (#6) (Johnson et al., 2004); south Whidbey Island (#7) (Kelsey et al., 2004); and, located at the limit of the 100-km circle, Kendall fault scarp within Boulder Creek fault (#8) (Barnett, 2007; Barnett et al., 2007) (sites are also mentioned in Fig. 5).
