Surface slip distributions and geometric complexity of intraplate reverse-faulting earthquakes

Earthquake ground surface ruptures provide insights into faulting mechanics and inform seismic hazard analyses. We analyze surface ruptures for 11 historical (1968−2018) moment magnitude (Mw) 4.7−6.6 reverse earthquakes in Australia using statistical techniques and compare their characteristics with...
