Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America (2022) 112 (1): 575–596.
...Colin Chupik; Richard Koehler; Amanda Keen‐Zebert ABSTRACT The Warm Spring Valley fault is a right‐lateral strike‐slip fault situated in the northern Walker Lane—a region of distributed deformation that accommodates ~15% of the dextral shear between the North American and the Pacific plates. We...

In contrast to this longer‐term slip rate, shorelines associated with the Sehoo highstand of Lake Lahontan (∼15.8 ka) adjacent to the Fort Sage fan are dextrally faulted at most 3 m, which...

...–1995 GPS data at 23 sites in Trinidad and determined that the Central Range (Warm Springs) fault is the major active strike-slip fault in Trinidad, albeit aseismic and possibly locked. Data from two campaign GPS sites in Trinidad provide additional insight. Site TDAD ( Table 1 ) is roughly 35 km north...

An overview of the different proposed fault structures discussed in this article. The locations from Pang et al. (2020) are shown in the background as blue. The cross section A to A′ and A″ (inset map) is shown in the foreground with the locations from this study and intersects with the northernmost portion of the SLC segment of the WF. The lower section of the Weber segment connects with the Warm Springs fault (WSF), which may extend farther south than is mapped on the surface. The proposed geometry in this study is shown as a black line, with reasonable variations to this model from nonlistric to minimally listric contained within the associated black dashed lines. The location of the mainshock from this study is shown as a red star. A reference geometry for a listric fault, roughly based on Pang et al. (2020), which used a slightly more northeast‐trending cross section that passed through the WSF, is shown as a blue dashed line. There is a broad range of dips that are possible near the surface trace of the WF, and the lines shown on the cross section are not intended to be exact. All lines drawn in the cross section are approximate and meant to conceptually illustrate possible subsurface structure.
