The evolution of the San Andreas Fault System is controlled                by thermal-mechanical processes associated with development and                 evolution of a "slabless window" formed beneath the western edge                of North America.  As a consequence of the slabless window, the                 plate boundary separating the North American and Pacific plates                 has a complex 3-D geometry which varies through time, with                      important consequences for tectonic processes associated with the               San Andreas Fault System.  In conjunction with a research effort                at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, modeling and data                    interpretation activities will be conducted to address the                      following: 1) Evaluation of the thermal, seismic, and                           stress/strength evolution of the southern edge of the Gorda Plate               as it interacts with the slabless window beneath Northern                       California; 2) Investigation of the thermal/petrologic evolution                of the North American crust in association with perturbations                   from mantle upwelling, magmatic underplating, and crust-mantle                  mixing; 3) Detailed analyses of the evolution of the lower                      crustal - upper mantle shear zones which serve as components of                 the plate boundary, the development of crustal faults, and the                  displacement and deformation behavior of crustal blocks                         associated with the San Andreas Fault System.
