“…Geodetic data (Fig. 2D) indicate that the Garlock region is currently dominated by northwest-trending, right-lateral strain rather than by northeasttrending, left-lateral strain (Savage et al, 1981(Savage et al, , 1990(Savage et al, , 2001Gan et al, 2000;Miller et al, 2001;Peltzer et al, 2001). Present-day, northwest-oriented, right-lateral shear has been documented at rates of 9-11 mm/yr north of the Garlock fault (Dixon et al, 2000;Meade and Hager, 2005) and ~7-15 mm/yr south of the Garlock fault (Sauber et al, 1986(Sauber et al, , 1994Meade and Hager, 2005).…”
