The well position is also standardized, but only for 96- , 384-, and 1536-well plates. These are generally well followed by manufacturers: Well Positions [16] [17] 96-well plates have a 9 mm well-to-well spacing, 384-wells a 4.5 mm spacing, and 1536-wells a 2.25 mm spacing. A notable characteristic is that the well array is symmetrical when the ...
The San Jacinto Fault Zone and the San Andreas Fault (SAF) accommodate up to 80% of the slip rate between the North American and Pacific plates.The extreme southern portion of the SAF has experienced two moderate events in historical times, while the SJFZ is one of California's most active fault zones and has repeatedly produced both moderate and large events.

The Newport–Inglewood-Rose Canyon Fault Zone. The Newport–Inglewood Fault is a right-lateral strike-slip fault [1] in Southern California.The fault extends for 47 mi (76 km) [1] (110 miles if the Rose Canyon segment is included) from Culver City southeast through Inglewood and other coastal communities to Newport Beach at which point the fault extends east-southeast into the Pacific Ocean.
The Concord Fault is a geologic fault in the San Francisco Bay Area.The reason it is called that is because it is located under the city of Concord. [1] It is connected to, and considered to be part of, the same fault zone as the Green Valley fault, which lies just a few miles to the north across the Suisun Bay. [2]
The Pacific plate, to the west of the fault, is moving in a northwest direction while the North American plate to the east is moving toward the southwest, but relatively southeast under the influence of plate tectonics. The rate of slippage averages about 33 to 37 millimeters (1.3 to 1.5 in) a year across California.
The Imperial Fault Zone is a right lateral-moving strike-slip fault, representing the northernmost transform fault associated with the East Pacific Rise.It is connected to the San Andreas Fault by the Brawley Seismic Zone.
The Mendocino Fracture Zone between the Gorda plate and Pacific plate (only the active section is traced) The Mendocino fracture zone is a fracture zone and transform boundary over 4000 km (2500 miles) long, [1] starting off the coast of Cape Mendocino in far northern California.
