摘要: The April to June 1992 Landers earthquake sequence in southern California modified the state of stress along nearby segments San Andreas fault, causing a 50-kilometer segment fault move significantly closer failure where it passes through compressional bend near Gorgonio Pass. decrease compressive normal may also have reduced fluid pressures that segment. As are reequilibrated by diffusion, should with time. That and another southeast probably not ruptured great about 300 years.
