Forecasting recurrent large earthquakes from paleoearthquake and fault...
Because the recurrence interval of large earthquakes on any particular fault is typically long relative to the historical record, geological data are often utilised to constrain... -
Informing seismic hazard with geodesy & remote-sensing from Türkiye to Central Asia
COMET (The Centre for Observation and Modelling of Earthquakes, Volcanoes and Tectonics) uses satellite measurements alongside ground-based observations and geophysical models... -
Updating the National Seismic Hazard Assessment. Philosophy and Implications
Dam owners and operators must consider a range of hazards for the design and maintenance of infrastructure assets – including seismic hazards. In 2018, Geoscience Australia... -
Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis model for the Philippines
The Philippine archipalego is tectonically complex and seismically hazardous, yet few seismic hazard assessments have provided national coverage. This paper presents an updated... -
Apples and Oranges: Developing a consistent catalog of local magnitudes for...
Modern probabilistic seismic hazard assessments rely on earthquake catalogs consistently expressed in terms of moment magnitude, MW. However, MW is still not commonly calculated... -
A record of stable continental region earthquakes from Western Australia...
In plate boundary regions moderate to large earthquakes are often sufficiently frequent that fundamental seismic parameters such as the recurrence intervals of large earthquakes... -
THE 2023 UPDATE TO THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL SEISMIC HAZARD ASSESSMENT...
The Australian National Seismic Hazard Assessment (NSHA) was updated in 2023 to coincide with the revision of the Australian Standard for the structural design actions for... -
Recolouring GSHAP: Challenging the status quo of Australian earthquake hazard
Since the publication of the Global Seismic Hazard Assessment Project (GSHAP) hazard map in 1999, Australia has stood out as a region of high earthquake hazard among its stable... -
Tectonic geomorphology and Holocene uplift rates of the Lae Urban Area,...
The city of Lae is Papua New Guinea (PNG)’s second largest, and is the home of PNG’s largest port. Here, a convergence rate of ~50 mm/yr between the South Bismarck Plate and the... -
Large earthquake recurrence in the Snowy Monaro region, first dated Holocene...
The Snowy Monaro region hosts major infrastructure critical to Australia’s energy and water security. It also hosts a number of active faults capable of hosting large... -
Preliminary Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis of the CO2CRC Otway...
We present a preliminary probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) of a site in the Otway basin, Victoria, Australia, as part of the CO2CRC Otway Project for CO2 storage... -
Ground shaking potential relating to eastern Australian active faults: an...
We present earthquake ground motions based upon a paleoseismically-validated characteristic earthquake scenario for the ~ 48 km-long Avonmore scarp, which overlies the Meadow... -
Reflections on the NSHA18: rethinking future seismic hazard assessments for Australia
An updated National Seismic Hazard Assessment of Australia was released in 2018 (the NSHA18). This assessment leveraged off advances in earthquake-hazard science in Australia... -
Surface-Rupturing Historical Earthquakes in Australia and Their...
We digitize surface rupture maps and compile observational data from 67 publications on ten of eleven historical, surface-rupturing earthquakes in Australia in order to analyze... -
The 2018 Lake Muir earthquakes: Australia’s ninth surface rupturing...
A shallow MW 5.3 earthquake near Lake Muir in southwest Western Australia on the 16 September 2018 was followed on the 8 November by a co-located MW 5.2 event in the same... -
Towards an updated national seismic assessment for Australia
Geoscience Australia has produced a draft National Seismic Hazard Assessment (NSHA18), together with contributions from the wider Australian seismology community. This paper...
