Whitney et al. (2021) challenge our conclusions about rates of deformation and amount of uplift along the Cape Range, Western Australia, particularly the elevation constraints we place on the last interglacial shoreline along the northern half of Cape Range. They selectively focus almost entirely on the northern half of Cape Range, completely omitting our extensive analysis of the southern section, which provides the bulk of our paleo−sea-level interpretations. They also raise concerns about some of the nomenclature and methodology used. We thank them for the opportunity to clarify our results on the minor section of our paper they take issue to, and address their concerns below point by point.

Sandstrom et al. (2020) present new elevation and age data for a flight of four marine terraces preserved along the western limb of the Cape Range anticline in western Australia. Their interpretation of these data provides an alternative estimate for the amount of tectonic deformation that has occurred since terrace formation. They conclude that less tectonic uplift has occurred in the region than previously reported and posit that their study provides a template for reducing the uncertainty associated with last interglacial paleoshoreline reconstructions.

Abstract. Modern geodetic and seismic monitoring tools are enabling the study of moderate-sized earthquake sequences in unprecedented detail. Here we use a variety of methods to examine surface deformation caused by a sequence of earthquakes near Lake Muir in southwest Western Australia in 2018. A shallow MW 5.3 earthquake on the 16th of September 2018 was followed on the 8th of November 2018 by a MW 5.2 event in the same region. Focal mechanisms for the events suggest reverse and strike-slip rupture, respectively. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) analysis of the events suggests that the ruptures are in part spatially coincident. Field mapping, guided by the InSAR results, reveals that the first event produced an approximately 3 km long and up to 0.5 m high west-facing surface rupture, consistent with slip on a moderately east-dipping fault. Double difference hypocentre relocation of aftershocks using data from rapidly deployed seismic instrumentation confirms an east-dipping rupture plane for the first event, and shows a concentration located at the northern end of the rupture where the InSAR suggests greatest vertical displacement. The November event resulted from rupture on a northeast-trending strike-slip fault. UAV-derived digital terrain models (differenced with pre-event LiDAR) reveal a surface deformation envelope consistent with the InSAR for the first event, but could not discern deformation unique to the second event. New rupture length versus magnitude scaling relationships developed for non-extended cratonic regions as part of this study allow for the distinction between “visible” surface rupture lengths (VSRL) from field-mapping and “detectable” surface rupture lengths (DSRL) from remote sensing techniques such as InSAR, and suggest longer ruptures for a given magnitude than implied by commonly used scaling relationships.
