A total of 45 individual travertine samples were collected along a 10 km trace of the Santa Fe fault zone. Travertine samples were collected from low (Qtr1; basin floor), middle (Qtr2), and high (Qtr3; Lucero Uplift) elevations near east- and west-dipping faults and at the main exposures within the Santa Fe fault zone. Of these 45 samples, 25 representative samples were selected for geochronological and geochemical analyses. Twelve of the representative samples were used to determine travertine growth rates using U-series ages. Growth rates in the samples were calculated using regressions of the ages and distance from each analyses within the same travertine sample along their direction of growth. Here we show the travertine growth rates.

Rates were determined by taking the inverse of the slope between sample points that were plotted by age and distance (mm) from top of samples.empty cells = nd
