  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Instrumental seismicity defines a seismic gap along the Rodgers Creek fault zone (RCFZ) between Santa Rosa and San Pablo Bay. Results of a paleoseismicity study within the gap, using offset channels in late Holocene alluvial deposits as piercing points, indicate a&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;minimum&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;slip rate of 2.1 to 5.8 mm/yr for the past 1300 years, a preferred range for the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;maximum&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;recurrence interval of 248 to 679 years, and a surface offset of 2 +0.3, −0.2 m during the most recent event. The RCFZ has produced past M7 earthquakes, and historical seismicity data indicate a&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;minimum&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;elapsed time of 182 years since the most recent earthquake of this size.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
