First order geodetic measurements show that strain rates in southeastern New South Wales are about 50 × 10-8 y-1. These strain rates are much greater than those suggested by seismicity. The direction of the principal axis of compression varies with position, but it is consistent with compression axis directions of the earthquake focal mechanisms in the Bowning area, and with the pattern of late Cainozoic vertical displacements suggested by geomorphology. In southwestern Western Australia strain identified from geodetic measurements is patchy in distribution, and is irregular in magnitude and direction. It is found close to areas of historic faulting, in areas of high measured stress, and across the Darling Fault line of weakness separating the Perth Basin from the Yilgarn Craton. |
