Deformation in the Santa Barbara Channel from GPS measurements 1987-1991An analysis of GPS data over the period 1987-91 confirms geologic and seismic evidence that the Santa Barbara Channel is a complicated actively deforming region. The data indicate north-south compression in the eastern channel, with little deformation in the west. Rotation may also be an important deformation mechanism. An analysis of strain rate variation over periods of 4.5, 17, and 100 yr suggests that deformation is nonuniform.
