Investigating seismicity in Cape Town: implications for active fault lines in the Western Cape, South Africa
Despite being in a stable continental region (SCR), South Africa has experienced significant seismic activity. Historical records cite a possible 6.5 magnitude earthquake in Cape Town in 1809. On September 29, 1969, a 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck the Ceres-Tulbagh region, less than 100 km from th...
