  "description": "A research paper detailing active and passive seismic imaging investigations along a 5.6-km-long transect in southern Utah Valley, Utah. It characterizes intrabasin faulting and deformation to assess earthquake hazards, imaging bedrock deformation to 1.4 km depth and analyzing S-wave velocities. The study interprets deformational patterns consistent with eastward migration of the Wasatch fault and models potential ground velocity variations.",
