Origin and evolution of the Seattle Fault and Seattle Basin, Washington Origin and evolution of the Seattle Fault and Seattle Basin, Washington
Analysis of seismic reflection data reveals that the Seattle basin (Washington) is markedly asymmetric and consists of ∼9-10 km of Eocene and younger deposits. The basin began as a discrete geologic element in the late Eocene (∼40 Ma), the result of a reorganization in regional fault geometry and kinematics. In this reorganization, dextral offset on the Puget fault south- east of Seattle...
