  1. Logs for interpretation practice Things to record for each log: Interpretation of geomorphic setting of sedimentation overall Each piece of evidence for an earthquake: -location -type of evidence -quality (poor, fair, good) 3) Number of earthquakes and the quality of each 4) Speculation about paleoslip/magnitude

  2. http://www.esp.geos.vt.edu/spotila/js-nfts.html Photo of the North Frontal thrust fault exposed in a trench through young alluvium. The 1.7 m dip-slip offset of a carbonate paleosol horizon is readily visible. This offset must postdate the age of detrital charcoal retreived from the hanging-wall one meter left of the tape measure, which we have dated with radiocarbon as 9.7 Ka. This demonstrates Holocene activity along the North Frontal thrust system.
