Want to know what types of rocks are involved in subduction zone slow slip events? See what we found entering the source area of shallow SSEs Hikurangi with JOIDES Resolution now out in Science Advances ! @niwa_nz GNS Science Te Pū Ao University of Texas Institute for Geophysics advances.sciencemag.org/content/6/13/e…

So excited Marsden Fund selected our project for funding today! And just in time as we are leaving this weekend on R/V Tangaroa to deploy OBS and seafloor pressure sensors for the project! Looking forward to work with Emily Warren-Smith, Neville Palmer, Katie Jacobs, Martha Savage & others!

We are headed out tonight on R/V Tangaroa to deploy 10 OBS and 14 seafloor pressure sensors to catch an upcoming slow slip event at the offshore Hikurangi subduction zone! Hikurangi Emily Warren-Smith Marsden Fund GNS Science Te Pū Ao

This flying sensor nicknamed "Suzy" was hard at work last week, zooming along the seafloor, measuring how much fluid is buried in the rocks below. The data collected by Suzy will help scientists to figure out how pressure may be building up along the Hikurangi

Wow that went fast! The R/V Tangaroa deck is nearly empty now, 22 instruments deployed, 2 more to go and then we are done! Fingers crossed for slow slip in the not too distant future 🤞⁦Emily Warren-Smith⁩ ⁦GNS Science Te Pū Ao⁩ ⁦@niwa_nz⁩ ⁦Hikurangi

All done and on our way home! Last instrument monitoring Hikurangi back on deck this morning! Now to GNS Science Te Pū Ao to freshen them up with new batteries and then back out on R/V Tangaroa in 10 days to redeploy them offshore Gisborne for another year! @marsdenfund

Earlier this year @Carolinenz59 and Kate Boersen took the Life at the Boundary Roadshow to North Island communities, to areas likely to be affected by an Hikurangi subduction zone earthquake and tsunami. Check out the presentation on our website! eastcoastlab.org.nz/discover/life-…

An international team of scientists, lead by Dr Lorna Strachan have begun studying a 500-metre long sediment core from the Hikurangi Subduction Zone, to investigate whether sea-level rise impacts the frequency of volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. eastcoastlab.org.nz/news/article/2…
