Fault Lines In Texas Map. For more details, see Quaternary Faults.Map showing Quaternary faults in the western U.S Researchers have mapped more than 250 potentially earthquake-causing underground fault lines stretching across 1,800 miles in the Dallas-Fort Worth area in North Texas

These maps and databases are being released in blocks of states or, in the case of Alaska, as compiled blocks of 1:250,000-scale quadrangles as chapters in this series This map is one of a series of seismicity maps produced by the U.S
The fault zone runs roughly parallel to the Texas coast and is characterized by largely normal faulting, where the crust is pulled apart. For Alaska, formal maps as well as databases are being published here, whereas for the conterminous U.S For more details, see Quaternary Faults.Map showing Quaternary faults in the western U.S
. These studies include the Fort Worth Basin (e.g., Hennings and others, 2019; Horne and others, 2020; 2022), Permian Basin (Horne and others, 2021; 2022; 2024), and the Eagle Ford. This map shows only those earthquakes with epicenters located within the boundaries of Texas, even though earthquakes in nearby states may have been felt or may have caused damage in Texas.The data in table 1 were use
Three US states are rattled by a wave of earthquakes ranging from 3.0. The map and data include events recorded since January 1, 2017, when data collection began Researchers have mapped more than 250 potentially earthquake-causing underground fault lines stretching across 1,800 miles in the Dallas-Fort Worth area in North Texas
