Earthquakes are not uncommon between #Bendigo & #Castlemaine in #Victoria. Last weekend a few small #earthquakes near #Maldon were heard by residents.

Here’s a map of last week’s #earthquakes in southeast #Australia. A magnitude 4.7 earthquake south of Yunta in South Australia last Thursday morning was the largest in the state since a magnitude 4.9 struck off Kangaroo Island in 2016. It's also the largest earthquake in this map area since a magnitude 4.7 south of Murrayville near the Vic-SA border in 2021.

The SRC isn’t posting here yet, but if you’re interested in #earthquake activity in southeast #Australia, check out the weekly maps on other social media platforms or on the website. We’ve been catching up after the holiday break, so here’s all of January 2023. It’s a total of 222 earthquakes, with the largest a magnitude 3.4 in South Australia
Volcanoes are awesome, and although I know very little about them, I do know that my home state has the 3rd largest volcanic plain in the world! I thought I could smell something burning towards the end… #volcano #earthquake #mountains #geology
#Darwin is the capital city of the Northern Territory of #Australia and experienced a magnitude 7.6 #earthquake this month
I’ve walked over these rocks near #ApolloBay for decades - most recently with @DrWendyRocks - and never noticed the hundreds of #dinosaur #footprints that I’ve probably tripped over. I’m a seismologist, not a palaeoichnologist after all… It’s suspected they might be from the Australovenator ("southern hunter"), a carnivorous #theropod

@mattodon there has never been a statewide high resolution seismic network, so it could be used for many applications. WA is resource-rich, so mineral exploration will likely benefit from the results of the data analysis
@mattodon This ~40km spaced array will be moved around the state’s 2.5 million square kilometre area over the next 5-10 years, creating a data set that will enable the detailed modelling of WA’s lithosphere, as well as improving the detectability of small earthquakes in previously unmonitored areas
That feeling when a significant #earthquake occurs in an area where a new array has just been deployed 🤤#datascience
