Abstract
Nine fault zones, including several possible offshore extensions of the Sur-Naciemento fault, were located and traced on the Continental Margin off Point Año Nuevo, California by seismic reflection profiling. Plate tectonic theory was combined with regional geology to arrive at the most plausible choice for the Sur-Naciemento fault zone and to generate a brief geologic history of the area.
