...Mitchell J. Malone; Paul A. Baker; Stephen J. Burns Abstract Dolomite breccias from the Miocene Monterey Formation, Tepusquet area, California are composed of dolomitic siliceous mudstones that are extensively fractured and filled with white, coarse-grained saddle dolomites. Fracturing...

... Mountains; parts of the dismembered ophiolite are exposed at Cuyama Gorge, Tepusquet-Colson Canyon, north side of Figueroa Mountain, Little Pine Mountain, and Santa Ynez River west of Gibraltar Dam. Rock types include harzburgite, pyroxenite, gabbro, diorite, pillow basalt, tuff, and serpentinite...

.... The two locations discussed in this paper occur near Santa Maria, California: one in Jalama Beach and the other at the Tepusquet and Colson Canyons ( Fig. 1 ). Outcrops at both locations occur in the upper siliceous member of the Monterey Formation and contain meters- wide fractures with nodular carbonate...

...Fred F. Pollitz; I. Selwyn Sacks Abstract Repeated first-order triangulation measurements made from 15 monuments in central and southern California are used to explore the structure of the crust and upper mantle beneath southern California, as well as to estimate the distribution of slip during...

...J. C. Savage; R. O. Burford Abstract The shear-strain accumulation in five tectonically-active areas of California has been calculated from triangulation data supplied by the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. Three of the areas lie along active sections of the San Andreas fault. Near Hollister...
