| Resource Description
|
| A LAND IN MOTION, California’s San Andreas Fault. Collier. The Pacific Plate is moving northwest at 1.9 inches per year, a seemingly sluggish rate, but enough to create tremendous pressure along one of the longest faults in the world, the San Andreas. Stretching from Mexico to Northern California, this fault is easily seen from the air or on foot. Dramatic photographs of crooked streets, displaced fences, landslides, or visible cracks across the open desert speak to the power of this force. Diagrams and charts explain what is behind all this activity – surely when the big one comes, your neighbors will appreciate the fact that you can explain in detail the science behind the cracks in their chimneys. #B-8333.
