Fig. 8 Fig. 8. Tomales Bay group. A small circle located at A in 1856 on tlie San Andreas fault had moved meters to B by strain creep up to 1906. By slip and rebound in that year one half of the circle moved meters to C and the other half meters to D. at Tamalpais. The actual net displacement of points on the west side of the fault by sudden movement in 1906 was therefore from B to c or meters in the direction 130°. Similarly the net displacement of points on the east side was from B to c' or meters in the direc- tion 340°. The distance cc' is the measure of the total relative dis- placement by the fault slip for points about 2 km. distant from the fault on either side. This is true no matter what may have been the azimuth of the transverse shift which moved the fault trace from 66' to cc'. The relative displacement by fault slip alone thus geodetically determined is meters. The measure of the slip at the fault would.
