Cradle of the Earthquake: Exploring the Underwater San Andreas Fault on the R/V Pacific Storm and the SRV Derek M. Baylis between 20100910 and 20101003

Metadata Updated: November 3, 2023

Over one hundred years after the devastating Great 1906 Earthquake that nearly destroyed San Francisco, this expedition explored the Northern San Andreas Fault, the history of past earthquakes, and the intertwined relationships between large earthquakes and biologic diversity along this, the fastest moving fault in western North America. The expedition combined cutting-edge technology with the use of an innovative, fuel-efficient vessel to explore the past and predict the future of this unexplored geobiologic system.
