Description:
Moderate-sized earthquakes (Richter magnitude M(L) 5(1/2)) have occurred four times this century (1901, 1922, 1934, and 1966) on the San Andreas fault near Parkfield in central California. In many respects the June 1966 sequence was a remarkably detailed repetition of the June 1934 sequence, suggesting a recurring recognizable pattern of stress and fault zone behavior.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bakun, W H -- McEvilly, T V -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Sep 28;205(4413):1375-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17732330" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
