Abstract

The June 9, 1980 earthquake (M_L = 6.1) occurred on the Cerro Prieto fault located in the Mexicali Valley (Figure 8.1). A day and a half after the event, the area was inspected both from the air and on the ground. The aim of the aerial reconnaissance was to obtain evidence of possible slippage of the Cerro Prieto fault as well as other phenomena related to the earthquake.
