Damiata and Tien-Chang Lee Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics University of California, Riverside, CA 92521 ABSTRACT Geothermal exploration in the Lake Elsinore area has primarily focused near a cross fault which acts as a conduit for thermal water. Flow testing of an exploratory hole indicates an ani- sotropic aquifer with a maximum transmissivity IO mi axis oriented along the fault striking N 11" E. Thermal water migrates laterally throughout the downtown area along a zone of enhanced transmissivity associated with the fault.

  • Using Local Knowledge Graph Construction to Scale Seq2seq Models to Multi-Document Inputs
    Using Local Knowledge Graph Construction to Scale Seq2Seq Models to Multi-Document Inputs Angela Fan Claire Gardent Chloe´ Braud Antoine Bordes FAIR / LORIA CNRS / LORIA CNRS / LORIA FAIR angelafan,[email protected] claire.gardent,[email protected] Abstract Query-based open-domain NLP tasks require information synthesis from long and diverse web results. Current approaches extrac- tively select portions of web text as input to Sequence-to-Sequence models using meth- ods such as TF-IDF ranking. We propose constructing a local graph structured knowl- edge base for each query, which compresses the web search information and reduces re- dundancy. We show that by linearizing the graph into a structured input sequence, models can encode the graph representations within a standard Sequence-to-Sequence setting. For two generative tasks with very long text in- put, long-form question answering and multi- document summarization, feeding graph rep- resentations as input can achieve better perfor- mance than using retrieved text portions. 1 Introduction Effective information synthesis is at the core of many Natural Language Processing applica- Figure 1: Multi-Document Input to Linearized Graph tions, such as open-domain question answering Multi-document input resulting from web search queries are converted to a graph structured knowledge base using coref- and multi-document summarization.

  • A Case Study from the Temecula Area, Southwestern Riverside County, California
    Land Subsidence (Proceedings of the Fourth International Symposium on Land Subsidence, May 1991). IAHS Publ. no. 200,1991. Earth Fissures, Urbanization and Litigation: A Case Study from the Temecula Area, Southwestern Riverside County, California E. J. CORWIN, S. C. ALHADEFF, S. P. OGGEL Lorenz Alhadeff Lundin & Oggel, 101 West Broadway, Suite 1500, San Diego, CA 92101, USA R. J. SHLEMON P.O. Box 3066, Newport Beach, CA 92659 , USA ABSTRACT Ground fissures occurring in 1987 extended discontinuously along a 12-km long zone in the rapidly-urbanizing Temecula-Wolf Valley area of southwestern Riverside County, California. Impacted were new residential and industrial buildings. Litigation has ensued, and damage is now alleged to exceed about 50 million dollars. Defendants include County government, a local Water District, developers, and consulting engineers and geologists. INTRODUCTION In the mid-1980s, urbanization dramatically increased in the Temecula area of southwestern Riverside County, California. From a population of 8,324 in 1980, the previously serene town, about 41 km north of San Diego and 53 km southeast of Los Angeles, jumped to a population of over 29,000 in 1988 (Fig. 1). Developers seized on the increasing popularity of southern California as a desirable place to live, and vast new residential and light industrial complexes ("Business Parks") were built. The rapid urbanization produced the usual plethora of environmental constraints for both the developers and residents of Temecula. The most unexpected problem was the mid-1987 occurrence of earth fissures, the resulting allegations of property damage and general loss of value, and the perhaps inevitable litigation that has since followed.

For sale by the U.S. Geological Survey Earth Science Information Center Open-File Reports Section Box 25286, MS 517 Denver Federal Center Denver, CO 80225 For additional information write to: District Chief U.S. Geological Survey Federal Building, Room W-2233 2800 Cottage Way Sacramento, CA 95825 MESSAGE FROM THE DISTRICT CHIEF The U.S. Geological Survey has been describing the water resources of California for more than 100 years. The California District consists of 250 staff members at nine locations, all of whom have contributed in some way to the studies described in this report. To accomplish the mission of describing the water resources of the State, the Survey staff works with more than 130 cooperating local, State, and Federal agencies with common interests in this most valuable resource. Climate extremes, such as the recent drought which is still fresh in people's minds, serve to focus our attention on the need for timely, high-quality water information. The flooding that occurred in southern California during the winter of 1992-93 is a reminder that climate extremes can change quickly. The studies described in this report cover a wide range of water issues in California that are important to water managers and scientists.

    1 9.3 PISGAH 2 3 4 9.3.1 Background and Summary of Impacts 5 6 7 9.3.1.1 General Information 8 9 The proposed Pisgah SEZ has a total area of 23,950 acres (97 km2) and is located in 10 San Bernardino County in southeastern California, about 100 mi (160 km) northeast of Los 11 Angeles (Figure 9.3.1.1-1). In 2008, the county population was 2,086,465. The nearest 12 population center to the SEZ is the City of Barstow, which is located about 25 mi (40 km) to 13 the west of the SEZ and had a 2008 population of 24,596. Interstate 40 (I-40) runs east–west 14 through the proposed Pisgah SEZ, bisecting it into a northern portion that contains about two- 15 thirds of the SEZ acreage and a southern portion with the remainder of the acreage. Access to the 16 SEZ from I-40 is available from exits at Fort Cady Road (to the west of the SEZ), Hector Road 17 (midway through the SEZ), and Pisgah Crater Road (at the eastern end of the SEZ). Hector Road 18 runs north–south through the middle of the SEZ, and a number of other local dirt roads cross the 19 SEZ. The National Trails Highway (historic U.S. 66) also passes through the SEZ as it runs 20 south of and parallel to I-40. The BNSF Railroad serves the area and traverses the SEZ from the 21 northwest to the southeast, running approximately parallel to and about 0.8 mi (1.3 km) north of 22 I-40.

  • Quaternary Fault and Fold Database of the United States
    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. Elsinore fault zone, Temecula section (Class A) No. 126d Last Review Date: 1998-12-01 citation for this record: Treiman, J.A., compiler, 1998, Fault number 126d, Elsinore fault zone, Temecula section, 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 02:16 PM. Synopsis General: A major dextral strike-slip fault zone that is part of the San Andreas fault system. Research studies have been done to assess faulting on most of the sections, and have documented Holocene activity for the length of the fault zone with a slip rate around 4–5 mm/yr. Multiple events have only been dated on the Whittier fault and Glen Ivy North fault strand, so interaction between faults and adjacent sections is not well-known. Multiple strands within several sections mean that the studies are not always fully representative of the whole section. Numerous consulting reports (not summarized herein) that have addressed location and recency of faulting are on file with the State of California, California Geological Survey, as part of the records of their Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Program. Sections: This fault has 7 sections. Sections are selected following
