Many of the changes were well documented and their possible origins can be examined in some detail. The 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake Revisiting the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake serves as an important reminder to all residents of California that the geologic processes responsible for creating the beautiful natural landscape we enjoy can sometimes occur suddenly and violently so it’s important to be prepared.

It’s a distinction that speaks less to extraordinary power in the case of Loma Prieta than to gaps in earthquake preparedness, hazard mapping and building codes – and to the extreme rarity of large earthquakes. Earthquakes Induced by Underground Nuclear Explosions. Learn more. Few of the aftershock mechanisms in the central zone resemble the main shock mechanism (strike N130°E, dip 70°SW, rake 140°), but instead exhibit reverse, right‐lateral, left‐lateral, and normal motion on planes subparallel to the main shock rupture plane.

The Loma Prieta earthquake During the early evening of October 17, many denizens of the Bay Area were preparing to watch the third game of the 1989 World Series. Monthly measurements since mid‐1981 of distance from a geodetic station located 11 km from the epicenter of the Loma Prieta earthquake (M s = 7.1; October 17, 1989) to three stations 30 to 40 km distant provides an unusually complete record of deformation in the epicentral region in the years prior to an earthquake. At the northwestern end of the aftershock zone earthquakes that apparently occurred off the main rupture plane exhibit mechanisms with predominantly reverse slip on planes nearly parallel to the San Andreas fault.

At the northwestern end of the aftershock zone earthquakes that apparently occurred off the main rupture plane exhibit mechanisms with predominantly reverse slip on planes nearly parallel to the San Andreas fault. The magnitude-6.9 Loma Prieta earthquake lasted just 15 seconds, but it was a momentous 15 seconds. At the southeastern end the mechanisms exhibit right‐lateral motion on near‐vertical planes, suggesting that these aftershocks involve slip on the San Andreas fault. Immediately after the Loma Prieta earthquake, seismicity along the southern Hayward Fault turned off, while seismicity along the San Gregorio Fault turned on.
