Out There Learning - The Greatest Ever On-Land Fault Movement - https://youtu.be/LUsIIJwxPYU (length: 4m 25s) > Where is the world's greatest known on-land fault movement of any individual earthquake? It's at a place called Pigeon Bush near Wellington New Zealand. It is the surface trace of the Wairarapa Fault. In 1855 a magnitude 8.2 earthquake offset a small stream bed by about 18.5 metres which is the greatest single-event fault movement of any on-land fault in the globe! |
