Afterslip hazard map of the Browns Valley neighborhood and surrounding area. A detailed map explanation is presented on the following page. vi Caption for map on previous page: Levels of Afterslip Hazard for the Browns Valley Neighborhood, City of Napa, California: All fault traces shown on this map face potential future earthquake fault surface rupture hazard and other earthquake-related hazards such as shaking, liquefaction, and landslides; these hazards are treated separately in other publications and maps from CGS and USGS (with preliminary updates provided in this report). For all levels of afterslip hazard, the afterslip amount that is measured 90 days after the earthquake can be expected to as much as double by 10 years after the earthquake (less than double is also possible). Red Fault Trace-High level of afterslip hazard; very likely to experience more than 15 cm of afterslip during the 3 years after the earthquake. (Red is intentionally included, even though none is indicated on this map.) Yellow Fault Trace-Moderate level of afterslip hazard; likely to experience less than 15 cm, but more than 5 cm, of afterslip during the 3 years after the earthquake. (Additional afterslip accumulation is likely to gradually accumulate an additional 5 cm during the 10 years after the earthquake and an additional 5 cm 30 years after the earthquake.) Green Fault Trace-Low level of afterslip hazard; very unlikely to experience more than 5 cm of afterslip during the 3 years after the earthquake. (Faults that experienced <10 cm of coseismic offset and <5 cm of afterslip within the 3 months after the earthquake are included in this category. Some faults or lineaments shown as green had no measurable coseismic slip or afterslip associated with the August 24, 2014, earthquake. Faults and lineaments of several categories are shown for completeness. Some are previously mapped strands (U.S. Geological Survey and California Geological Survey, 2006); others represent preliminary mapping based on a combination of imagery interpretation and field mapping that has taken place since the August 24, 2014, earthquake. All of the faults and/or imagery lineaments shown as heavy green lines on this map may be considered to have a low level of afterslip hazard. Subsequent ongoing mapping, that is, work still in progress, may reveal that certain lineaments shown here are not actually faults.) Map orientation: North direction is toward top of map.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
