Hutt Valley residents! Want to learn about the natural disasters your area is vulnerable to and how to prepare for them? We've teamed up with Rīpeka Whero Aotearoa | New Zealand Red Cross for a special event in Lower Hutt. Spaces are limited. Find out more and register here: bit.ly/2RnOBsv
I wrote a paper about earthquakes, and my super co-author Ursula Cochran put in all in far better words with a blog article at East Coast LAB | Hikurangi Subduction Zone M9. For earthquakes, sleeping, patchwork blankets, and carrying an analogy a long way, read at: eastcoastlab.org.nz/news/hikurangi…
Our new review paper on evidence for large earthquakes & tsunamis at the Hikurangi SZ - compiles evidence from 22 sites, >700 C14 dates, & far more assessment of uncertainties than we've ever attempted before: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…, with Jamie Howarth Andy Howell & others.
Day 2, workshop lead by @RLangridgeEqgeo on Canterbury-Marlborough paleoseismology, listening to all the great work being done by lots of folks at Geology | Pūtaiao ā-nuku GNS Science Te Pū Ao VUW, Lincoln, Auckland.
Congratulations to Kelvin Berryman, Inaugural Director of the NHRP GNS Science Te Pū Ao for being named a Fellow of the Royal Society of New Zealand.
The 10 year NHRP programme has ended … BUT you can continue to read up on ongoing & new natural hazards research Resilience Challenge Thanks to all those who have been involved with NHRP over the years and to our funder MBIE Science for their support.
