Santa Cruz Island fault (SCIF) field montage and videos of gully offsets, sea-cliff exposure, and geologic map and cross section. Additionally, late Quaternary folding and uplift on the Northern Channel Islands anticlinorium, and coeval strike-slip movement on the SCIF may be a unique example of strain partitioning on an individual map-scale structure. For simplicity, strain partitioning is defined here as the separation of deformation into pure and simple shear components that can occur at various scales.
