Supporting data for Late Pleistocene kinematics of the Great Southern Puerto Rico fault zone, Puerto Rico

August 27, 2025

This Data Release contains machine-readable files accompanying the study “Late Pleistocene kinematics of the Great Southern Puerto Rico fault zone, Puerto Rico” by Lynch et al. in Seismological Research Letters. The data release includes neotectonic mapping of fault-related features along the Great Southern Puerto Rico fault zone (GSPRFZ), and data documenting a focused site along the GSPRFZ in Salinas, PR. The data documenting neotectonic mapping of the GSPRFZ include linework (GSPRFZ-lin.shp) and vertical separation calculations (GSPRFZ-VS.csv). The data documenting the focused site along the GSPRFZ include surficial mapping (HLC-surfmap.shp), detailed unit descriptions (HLC-units.csv), a structure-from-motion-derived orthophoto mosaic of a bedrock fault zone exposure (outcrop.tif), surveys of offset geomorphic features (surveys.zip), and calculated displacements (GSPRFZ-RL.csv).
