  2. Microplate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microplate

    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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mendocino_Triple_Junction

    The Mendocino triple junction is located at the eastern end of the Mendocino Fracture Zone where it approaches Cape Mendocino. The Mendocino triple junction (MTJ) is the point where the Gorda plate, the North American plate, and the Pacific plate meet, in the Pacific Ocean near Cape Mendocino in northern California.

    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 .

    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.

  7. Newport–Inglewood Fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newport–Inglewood_Fault

    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.

  8. South Mountain Oil Field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Mountain_Oil_Field

    Tectonic forces caused by the collision and lateral movement of the North American and Pacific Plates have compressed the area of the Oxnard and Ventura Basins from north to south, resulting in structural folds; oil has collected in those folds which form an anticlinal trapping mechanism. Extensive faulting is a secondary trapping mechanism, as ...

    The Imperial Fault Zone is a system of geological faults located in Imperial County in the Southern California region, and adjacent Baja California state in Mexico. It cuts across the border between the United States and Mexico .
