Kent & (Driscoll): Characterizing the most recent event (MRE) on the North Tahoe-Stateline fault, Lake TahoeIn the summer 2010, a USGS NEHRP-funded seismic CHIRP survey was conducted to focus on the structure and recency of rupture along the North Tahoe-Stateline Fault, Lake Tahoe. Fallen Leaf Lake and Cascade Lake were also surveyed. |
