Paleoseismology and global positioning system: earthquake-cycle effects and geodetic versus geologic fault slip rates in the Eastern California shear zone.==$Geology, 31$==(1), 55-58. https://doi.org/10.1130/0091-7613(2003)031<0055:PAGPSE>2.0.CO;2http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12816/2139Published slip rates for the Owens Valley fault zone in eastern California based on geodetic data and elastic half-space models (5–7 mm/yr) are faster than longer term geologic rates (2–3 mm/yr). We use Global Positioning System data spanning the central Owens Valley, a more realistic rheological model with an elastic upper crust over a viscoelastic lower crust and upper mantle, and paleoseismic data from adjacent faults, to show that this difference could reflect earthquake-cycle effects. We estimate a long-term rate (2.1 ± 0.7 mm/yr) and earthquake recurrence interval (2750 +350/−1000 yr) from the geodetic data, both in agreement with independent geologic estimates.application/pdfenginfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessEarthquakesPaleoseismologyGeological faultsEarth sciencesTerremotosPaleosismologíaFallas geológicasCiencias de la tierrainfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/pe-repo/ocde/ford#1.05.00http://purl.org/pe-repo/ocde/ford#1.05.04http://purl.org/pe-repo/ocde/ford#1.05.06Geologyhttps://doi.org/10.1130/0091-7613(2003)031<0055:PAGPSE>2.0.CO;2
