Large Surface‐Rupturing Earthquakes and a >12 kyr, Open Interseismic Interval on the Tintina Fault, Yukon

Abstract We present the first geomorphic evidence for successive, surface‐rupturing earthquakes throughout the Quaternary on the Tintina fault in the Yukon Territory, northwestern Canada. A ∼130‐km‐long series of scarps and pressure ridges offset 2.6 Ma and 132 ka landforms by ∼500–1,500 m and 65–85...
