-
A.
Panamint Valley fault zone
The Panamint Valley fault zone is a major strike-slip fault system in eastern California that accommodates significant crustal deformation and helps shape the tectonically active Panamint Valley region.
-
B.
Calico–Hidalgo fault zone
The Calico–Hidalgo fault zone is a major strike-slip fault system in the Mojave Desert of Southern California that accommodates part of the region’s tectonic shear between the Pacific and North American plates.
-
C.
Rocky Mountain fault system
The Rocky Mountain fault system is a major network of geological faults along the Rocky Mountains that has shaped the region’s topography and tectonic evolution.
-
D.
Wasatch Fault
The Wasatch Fault is a major active normal fault system in Utah that poses significant earthquake risk to the densely populated Wasatch Front region.
-
E.
Motagua–Polochic fault system
The Motagua–Polochic fault system is a major left-lateral strike-slip fault zone in Central America that accommodates tectonic motion between the North American and Caribbean plates and is a significant source of regional seismic activity.
