what type of fault is the cascadia subduction zone
Cascadia subduction zone The Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) is a 1,000 km (620 mi) long dipping fault that stretches from Northern Vancouver Island to Cape Mendocino in northern California. It separates the Juan de Fuca and North America plates. New Juan de Fuca plate is created offshore along the Juan de Fuca Ridge.[7][8]
Edwards Plateau Trees of the savanna include a juniper-oak mix and a mesquite-acacia mix scattered over fairly short grasses, which traditionally were affected by droughts and regular fires. Some pecan trees are found near the springs and rivers. The Balcones Fault is associated with the Edwards Plateau formation.[5] This fault line is an ecological demarcation for the range definition of a number of species. For example, the California fan palm, Washingtonia filifera, is known to occur only west of the Edwards Plateau or Balcones Fault, and Buddleja racemosa is known only from the southern edge of the plateau.
