DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. Kathryn Puseman. R.A. Varney.

A single sample from the Eglington Fault in Las Vegas, Nevada, was analyzed for pollen and charcoal identification. This sample was collected from a colluvial wedge in the last rupture at the EI Campo Grande site of the Eglington Fault. Pollen analysis was used to determine the local vegetation at the time of the rupture. Charcoal in the sample was identified and submitted for an AMS radiocarbon date.
