| Figure 1.1c: Ze'ev Reches (Hebrew University) and Kerry Sieh (Caltech) examine the ground rupture along the central trace of the Imperial Fault in southern California after the October 15, 1979 magnitude 6.5 earthquake. View is to the southwest across the rupture. The strike component of slip (~15cm) is identified by the right lateral offset of the irrigation canal. There is very little dip slip here.
