Description

I do not take any credit for the data compiled here. All surface rupture data is taken from: Macheyeki, A. S., Mdala, H., Chapola, L. S., Manhiça, V. J., Chisambi, J., Feitio, P., et al. (2015). Active fault mapping in Karonga-Malawi after the December 19, 2009 Ms 6.2 seismic event. Journal of African Earth Sciences102, 233–246. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jafrearsci.2014.10.010

Data on the earthquake focal mechanisms and geodesy is taken from: Biggs, J., Nissen, E., Craig, T., Jackson, J., & Robinson, D. P. (2010). Breaking up the hanging wall of a rift‐border fault: The 2009 Karonga earthquakes, Malawi. Geophysical Research Letters37(11).
