The purpose of the study was threefold: (1) To determine if there had been any surface cracking or faulting within the project area related to the Oroville earthquake sequence; (2) to investigate structures associated with the Swain Ravine and other lineaments and to determine the relationship between them and the 1975 faulting that occurred on the Cleveland Hill fault; and (3) to determine if there has been recent seismic activity within the project area. The study included a comprehensive review of geological reports and maps of the region; the use of data from interpretation of vertical and low-sun-angle aerial photographs; sidelooking airborne radar (SLAR) and Earth Resources Technology Satelite (ERTS) imagery; the compilation of data collected by other agencies investigating the Oroville earthquake and regional tectonics; reconnaissance geological field mapping throughout the regional shear zone; detailed mapping in the project area; and subsurface exploration of the Swain Ravine lineament by trenching.
"Biodiversity." As argument over environmental and conservation policy grows more heated in California and throughout the nation, the term has become a buzzword. But what does biodiversity really mean? What really threatens it? Why should we care? In Our Own Hands offers a readable, scientifically sound view of California's biological diversity and what must be done to preserve it. The book will be an invaluable resource for environmental and natural resource specialists, educators, and general readers. Local and global forces threaten California's wetlands, dunes, oak woodlands, and riparian forest habitats--all declining habitats in a rapidly urbanizing, culturally heterogeneous, and politically turbulent state. Always a bellwether, California will be a model for the rest of the United States in its scientific and political solutions to conservation problems. This book proposes the first steps toward a unified national conservation policy for the twenty-first century. "Biodiversity."
