... that the Meers Fault in Oklahoma was active during the last 3,000 years and features a scarp that reaches 5 metres (16 ft) height? Most recent prehistoric deformation: latest Quaternary (<15 ka) Comments: Two late Holocene events are documented—one between 1,100–1,300 yrs ago (Luza and others, 1987 #669; Luza and others, 1987 #544; Madole, 1988 #662; Crone and Luza, 1990 #661; Kelson and Swan, 1990 #659), and a preceding event between 2,000-2,900 yrs ago (Kelson and Swan, 1990 #659; Swan and others, written commun. 1993 #675)A 26-km-long linear fault scarp as much as 5m high along the Meers fault, first brought to public attention by Gilbert (1983a, 1983b) and Donovan et al. (1983), indicates recent reactivation of the Meers fault.
