Australian seismological report, 1996
The year was another marginally below average one with respect to the frequency and magnitude of earthquakes in Australia; there were two of magnitude 5 or more but no large... -
Defining an active fault in the Australian intraplate context, with some...
Defining a neotectonic fault in the intraplate context is relatively straightforward - the fault must have hosted displacement in the current crusta stress regime. Defining an... -
Seismicity in the southwest of Western Australia
In the Cities Project Perth, GA is developing a multi-hazard risk assessment of the Perth metropolitan area. One of the main objectives of the Project is to develop an... -
Australian Seismic and Magnetotelluric Surveys - Information Sheet
Geoscience Australia (GA) has acquired land seismic data for more than 40 years, and since 1980 has acquired in excess of 15 000 km of onshore deep crustal seismic reflection... -
Dalton-Gunning area, New South Wales, earth tremors of March, 1949
On March 11th, 1949, severe earth tremors were felt in the Dalton area, and, less severely, over a considerable portion of New South Wales. These were succeeded in the... -
