摘要:

Geophysical studies of the major boundary fault(s) in eastern Long Valley caldera have led to significantly different models being proposed for the subsurface structure of this area. Pakiser originally interpreted gravity data to propose a steep vertical offset across the eastern boundary fault(s) which may be as great as 5 km. On the other hand, Hill employing seismic refraction data, and Abers, who reinterpreted the available gravity data in the light of the "hard" seismic constraints of Hill, suggested that the offset across this fault may be much more gentle. However, new magnetotelluric data may call for a revision of these models. Based on these recent MT results, offsets along the eastern boundary fault appear to be somewhat steeper than recent models would suggest. Our current thinking would favor a model more in keeping with the one originally envisaged by Pakiser, but with less throw (approximately 2 km) across the faults.
