EXAMINATION OF BULK SOIL FROM THE ROGERS CREEK FAULT, SONOMA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA

Author(s): Kathryn Puseman

Year: 2001

Summary

Two bulk soil samples from an exploratory trench across the Rogers Creek fault in Sonoma

County, California, were floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis.

These samples were collected for geologic purposes of constraining the timing of paleoseismic

events on the fault. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially

radiocarbon datable material was separated.
