Why is it important?
This paper presents the first paleomagnetic data for rocks in the continental Woodlark Rift. These data provide evidence to constrain temporal and kinematic aspects of the tectonic history of SE Papua New Guinea, as well as to identify previously unrecognised crustal block boundaries in the active continental Woodlark Rift.
