This poster shows earthquakes occurring in Australia in 2016 with a background of earthquake activity in Australia over the past 10 years. Also included are images produced as part of the analysis of the Petermann Ranges Earthquakes -, the offshore Bowen Earthquakes -, and the Norsemann Earthquakes Sequences. A yearly summary of earthquake occurrences in Australia as well as the top 10 Australian earthquakes in 2016 are presented.

The Earthquakes@GA application can be used to find information on recent earthquakes as monitored by Geoscience Australia, search the earthquake catalogue, submit a report about an earthquake users have felt, and subscribe to notifications about earthquakes Geoscience Australia has analysed.

This short video by the Geoscience Australia Education Team is targeted at primary students but is suitable for a wider audience. This video introduces the concepts of earthquake monitoring using seismometers and seismographs. It also features the National Earthquake Alert Centre. Viewers are asked to try making earthquakes at home using the accelerometers in their smartphones. For more education resources visit ga.gov.au/education.

Segmented time series data for earthquake events. Data are in raw digital counts and have associated instrument metadata for calibration to physical ground-motion measures. These data are used to inform a range of applications in seismic hazard assessment and for assessing the utility of current observatory practice for magnitude assessment. <b>Value: </b>Used in the selection and development of ground-motion models used for seismic hazard purposes. These data also enable the assessment and development of new earthquake magnitude formulae. <b>Scope: </b>Data has been collected on an ad hoc basis, some early digital data dates back to 1989 (i.e. Newcastle earthquake), and the dataset continues to grow as earthquakes of interest occur, or various temporary deployments are rolled out. Instrument metadata is not always known.
