Aeromagnetic mapping of Precambrian geological structures that controlled the 1968 Meckering earthquake (Ms 6.8): Implications for intraplate seismicity in Western Australia

Aeromagnetic mapping of Precambrian geological structures that controlled the 1968 Meckering earthquake (Ms 6.8): Implications for intraplate seismicity in Western Australia

The 1968 Meckering earthquake (MS 6.8) resulted in the formation of an extensive surface rupture complex comprising faults with a range of orientations and demonstrating reverse and dextral lateral offsets. The rupture extended for approximately 37 km and scarps reached up to 2.5 m high near to the...
