AlarconRiseSpreadingCenterSegmentAlarcón Rise is the northernmost segment of the East Pacific Rise spreading center. The Alarcón Rise is roughly 50 kilometers long. It is the axis along which new ocean crust is forming as a rocky ridge, compared to the short spreading segments within the Gulf of California that are sediment-filled basins. The Alarcón Rise is bounded on the south by the Tamayo transform fault and on the north by the Pescadero transform fault. Both transform faults are plate boundaries where the plates slide by each other.
