摘要
Faults are generally assumed to be more complicated at the surface than at depth. Analysis of the 2010 El Mayor–Cucapah earthquake, in contrast, reveals that the surface trace is nearly straight but the fault must be highly segmented at depth, thus the characteristics of this earthquake could not have been anticipated from surface geology.
