How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T14530582 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

Target entity: Coast Range Fault system Context triple: [California Coast Ranges seismicity, associatedWithFaultZone, Coast Range Fault system]
-
A.
Transverse Ranges fault system
The Transverse Ranges fault system is a complex network of active faults in Southern California that accommodates motion between the Pacific and North American tectonic plates and is responsible for significant seismic activity in the region.
-
B.
Queen Charlotte Fault
The Queen Charlotte Fault is a major transform fault off the Pacific Northwest coast that marks the tectonic boundary between the Pacific and North American Plates and is a significant source of earthquakes in the region.
-
C.
Elsinore Fault Zone
The Elsinore Fault Zone is a major right-lateral strike-slip fault system in Southern California that accommodates part of the motion between the Pacific and North American tectonic plates and poses significant seismic hazard to the region.
-
D.
Gloria Fault
The Gloria Fault is a major transform fault in the North Atlantic Ocean that forms part of the boundary between the Eurasian and African tectonic plates near the Azores region.
-
E.
Rocky Mountain fault system
The Rocky Mountain fault system is a major network of geological faults along the Rocky Mountains that has shaped the region’s topography and tectonic evolution.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
