SeismographThe graphic beneath could be very cool, integrating plenty of information about the geography and historic motion on this fault. Edward Tufte would be happy.

What’s left out of the story is how current earthquakes within the area have created displaced earth, rising river bottoms and new drainage routes. The Powers That Be have labored very laborious to maintain this data from the public by censoring earthquake data from USGS websites.

They contained three lengthy-period seismometers and a single-part, brief-interval, vertical seismometer. Many moonquakes had been recorded by those instruments.
