Current motion of Peninsular Malaysia using high precision GNSS / Nurhanani Abd Mutalib
Peninsular Malaysia is located relatively distant from Sumatra's seismic source zone, the closest earthquake location to Malaysia is around 350 kilometres away. Sumatran earthquakes have caused vibrations on multiple occasions. Peninsular Malaysia has been hit by major earthquakes from West Sum...

Peninsular Malaysia is located relatively distant from Sumatra's seismic source zone, the closest earthquake location to Malaysia is around 350 kilometres away. Sumatran earthquakes have caused vibrations on multiple occasions. Peninsular Malaysia has been hit by major earthquakes from West Sumatra on occasions. The displacement of MyRTKnet stations owing to co-seismic motion from the 2004 Sumatra earthquake ranged from 1.5 to 17.0 cm, with the majority of displacement happening in the south-west direction. Similarly, the data multiple from the 2005 and 2007 earthquakes shows displacements of 1.0 to 6.5 cm and 1.0 to 3.0 cm in the south-west direction, respectively. Meanwhile, the earthquakes of 2012 produced displacements in the north-east direction ranging from 0.3 to 4.8 cm. The study area covers the entire of Peninsular Malaysia. GNSS precise point positioning (PPP) is a useful tool for obtaining more accurate estimates of point displacement up to millimetres. MyRTKNet data were processed via high GPS Processing Software known as GIPSY. The estimation of Peninsular MyRTKNet station’s velocities was obtained following the plotted of time series.
