USGS Southwest Biological Science Center Colorado Plateau Research Station Box 5614, Northern Arizona University Flagstaff, Arizona 86011 May 2006 Death Valley Amphibians and Reptiles_____________________________________________________ ABSTRACT As part of the National Park Service Inventory and Monitoring Program in the Mojave Network, we conducted an inventory of amphibians and reptiles at Death Valley National Park in 2002- 2004. Objectives for this inventory were to: 1) Inventory and document the occurrence of reptile and amphibian species occurring at DEVA, primarily within priority sampling areas, with the goal of documenting at least 90% of the species present; 2) document (through collection or museum specimen and literature review) one voucher specimen for each species identified; 3) provide a GIS-referenced list of sensitive species that are federally or state listed, rare, or worthy of special consideration that occur within priority sampling locations; 4) describe park-wide distribution of federally- or state-listed, rare, or special concern species; 5) enter all species data into the National Park Service NPSpecies database; and 6) provide all deliverables as outlined in the Mojave Network Biological Inventory Study Plan. Methods included daytime and nighttime visual encounter surveys, road driving, and pitfall trapping. Survey effort was concentrated in predetermined priority sampling areas, as well as in areas with a high potential for detecting undocumented species.

    Jump to Navigation Quaternary Fault and Fold Database of the United States As of January 12, 2017, the USGS maintains a limited number of metadata fields that characterize the Quaternary faults and folds of the United States. For the most up-to-date information, please refer to the interactive fault map. Grapevine fault (Class A) No. 184 Last Review Date: 2002-02-11 Compiled in cooperation with the California Geological Survey citation for this record: Machette, M.N., Klinger, R.E., and Piety, L.A., compilers, 2002, Fault number 184, Grapevine fault, in Quaternary fault and fold database of the United States: U.S. Geological Survey website, https://earthquakes.usgs.gov/hazards/qfaults, accessed 12/14/2020 02:25 PM. Synopsis The Grapevine fault is a range-bounding normal fault along the southwestern side of the Grapevine Mountains and along the northeastern side of Death Valley between about Titanothere Canyon Red Wall Canyon. As such it parallels but lies east of the Northern Death Valley fault zone, which has predominately lateral slip. The structural relationship between these two faults is largely unknown, but the Grapevine fault forms the eastern margin of a structurally downdropped block comprised by the northern part of Death Valley. The total vertical separation on the Grapevine fault could be at least 4,270 m (14,000 ft). The Cenozoic displacement seems to be greatest at the southern end of the Grapevine fault, where the vertical separation may as much as the Grapevine fault, where the vertical separation may as much as 427 m (1,400 ft), and decreases northwestward toward Red Wall Canyon.
