Identifying obscured faults in urban areas: insights from Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 897-917, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Locating faults can be challenging in urban environments and low strain rate regions, where surface expressions of faulting are erased by anthropogenic and surface processes since the last earthquake. While urban development can provide challenges, it can also provide rich resources such as geotechnical boreholes and high‐resolution LiDAR ...
