- The San Andreas Fault and the San Francisco Bay Area
The San Andreas Fault, a transform fault, is one of the Earth's major plate boundaries. Urban development along the coastline of California from Los Angeles north to Cape Mendocino has engulfed this tectonically active geological feature. The following website, The San Andreas Fault and the San Francisco Bay Area, discusses the influence of geology on past and future cultural development in the region.
