Hockley Fault revisited: More geophysical data and new evidence on the fault location, Houston, Texas

Mustafa Saribudak, Michal Ruder, Bob Van Nieuwenhuise
Journal: Geophysics
Published: 09 April 2018
Geophysics (2018) 83 (3): B133–B142.
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1190/geo2017-0519.1
.... Considering that the average movement of these faults is approximately 8 cm per decade in Harris County, there is a great potential for structural damage to highways, utility infrastructure, and buildings that cross these features. Using integrated geophysical data, we have investigated the Hockley Fault...

A geophysical investigation of the active Hockley Fault System near Houston, Texas

Shuhab D. Khan, Robert R. Stewart, Maisam Otoum, Li Chang
Journal: Geophysics
Published: 07 June 2013
Geophysics (2013) 78 (4): B177–B185.
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1190/geo2012-0258.1
... examined the Hockley Fault System in northwest Harris County. Airborne LiDAR is an effective tool to identify fault scarps and we have used it to identify several new faults and assemble an updated map for the faults in Houston and surrounding areas. Two different LiDAR data sets (from 2001 to 2008...
