Scientist Link San Francisco Quake to Faulting Rise
A U.S. Geological Survey expert, Dr. G. F. Borver, argues the California quake came from abnormal faulting rather than Vesuvius eruptions. He notes the Pacific coast has risen over millennia, with high beaches and deep offshore waters indicating ongoing crustal uplift extending toward Chile and Japan. He cautions a long interval before another major event, though minor shocks may continue.
