The Geotechnical Extreme Events Reconnaissance (GEER) Association, sponsored by the National Science Foundation, just published the reconnaissance report of the 2016 M 5.8 Pawnee, Oklahoma earthquake investigation expedition.
This report documents observations of liquefaction, damage to earthen levees and dams, ground settlement, and nonstructural damage to buildings and bridge abutments from a small-to-moderate magnitude event that occurred in a region that has recently experienced an increase in seismicity rates.
