1863 Hawke's Bay earthquake
The 1863 Hawke's Bay earthquake was a devastating earthquake that struck near the town of Waipukurau on February 23, 1863.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=GeoNet - Quakes )〕 It remained the single largest earthquake to strike Hawke's Bay until 1931, where a 7.8 magnitude quake leveled much of Napier and Hastings and killed 256 people.
==Tectonic setting==
New Zealand lies along the boundary between the Indo-Australian Plate and Pacific Plates. In the South Island most of the relative displacement between these plates is taken up along a single dextral (right lateral) strike-slip fault with a major reverse component, the Alpine Fault. In the North Island the displacement is mainly taken up along the Hikurangi Subduction Zone, although the remaining dextral strike-slip component of the relative plate motion is accommodated by the North Island Fault System (NIFS), which runs from Wellington, up Hawke's Bay and through to Gisborne and the Bay of Plenty. The 1863 earthquake is believed to have occurred outside the Mohaka Fault, just west of Waipukurau.
