Abstract
The limits of channel offset
The offset of stream channels across a strike-slip fault offer a record of long-term slip rates. The process itself is an interesting case of landscape evolution because the streams will spill straight across the fault at some point and reset the offset. Dascher-Cousineau
et al.
developed a model for this process that they validated using observations from the Carrizo Plain in California. The model leverages transitions from active to abandoned stream channels to determine when and how drainage networks in these regions reorganize and allow quantification of both slip and bedload transport.
