EXAMINATION OF BULK SOIL FROM A PALEOSEISMIC TRENCHING STUDY IN SAN FRANCISCO BAY, CALIFORNIA
Author(s): Kathryn Puseman
Year: 1997
Summary
A single bulk soil sample was recovered from a paleoseismic study trench in San
Francisco Bay, California. Botanic components and detrital charcoal in the sample were
identified, where possible, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated.
Radiocarbon dating of the detrital charcoal present in the sample will aid in interpretation of the
timing of the most recent earthquake along the San Gregoria fault.
