Empty desks are a weird sight at the National Geohazards Monitoring Centre, who provide NZ with 24/7 monitoring of geohazards, but they took the time to Drop, Cover, Hold for #ShakeOut this morning!

Hawke's Bay App Well done to everyone who participated in ShakeOut and Tsunami Hīkoi yesterday! An incredible ~700,000 people took part! We were lucky enough to be joined by a group of local preschoolers (and some turtles) at the National Aquarium of New Zealand to practice being "turtle safe"🐢

Dr. Laura Wallace will be visiting Masterton on Monday 21st November to speak about slow-slip activity and other aspects of the fascinating tectonic plate activity going on beneath the Wairarapa! waiscience.weebly.com/talks-coming-u…

🗣Hey teachers! Want to upskill in science teaching? #Volcanofest is offering PLD workshops for teachers at all levels, plus an activity fair showcasing where educators will demonstrate different activities and brainstorm with you about how they can work in your own context!

What do you think about volcanic, earthquake, and other hazards in your area? 🤔 If you live in Taupō or Rotorua you can help researchers understand just that! Fill out the short survey at bit.ly/ECLIPSE22 to share your thoughts and contribute to social science research👩‍🔬

Scientists have edged closer to understanding mysterious “silent” earthquakes, after capturing a recent event that raised part of Hawke’s Bay’s seafloor by several centimetres nzherald.co.nz/hawkes-bay-tod…

🧐New research on earthquake uplift of the Hawkes Bay coast at Aramoana! The team, led by GNS scientist Nicola Litchfield, investigated marine terraces as recorders of earthquake uplift. Check out their paper 👉 doi.org/10.1002/esp.54…

🎉 Yes! I am the 4th woman in ~49 years to win this prestigious award, where my prize is a public lecture tour of NZ. Many thanks to my nominators and GSNZ ! Very much looking forward sharing the story of the Kaikōura Earthquake: Tales from the Seafloor. See ya in 2023!

And here’s our model of the slow slip events on ⁦Hikurangi⁩ in the last month alone, based on ⁦GeoNet⁩ GNSS network data. 3 SSEs going on at once in the last few weeks!

New Zealand’s largest fault zone just released the equivalent energy of a magnitude 7.0 earthquake, through slow-burning “silent” events linked to recent swarms above Gisborne nzherald.co.nz/nz/silent-enig…

The new East Coast LAB | Hikurangi Subduction Zone M9 website is here!🥳 For the past few months, we’ve been working hard to deliver a new website that is more user-friendly and connects you to the information you need, faster. Check it out and tell us what you think!

We are so excited to announce the release of the final three modules in our #WhatsOnOurPlates series, developed in partnership with AF8 and Illuminate Science, kindly funded by Natural Hazards Commission Toka Tū Ake!🥳 Check them out and tell us what you think🤔

Our new #WhatsOnOurPlates? module, Uncovering Knowledge in all its Forms, explores the ways that both mātauranga Māori and western science use observation and experimentation to better understand our world.⛰️Developed in partnership with AF8 and kindly funded by Natural Hazards Commission Toka Tū Ake

Earthquakes cause more than just shaking! Our new #WhatsOnOurPlates? module Investigating Cascading Hazards explores immediate, short-term, and long-term impacts from earthquakes🔥arcg.is/1eSTmP0. Developed in partnership with AF8 and kindly sponsored by Natural Hazards Commission Toka Tū Ake

All of Aotearoa's coastal areas and lakes are at risk of tsunami. Take a deep dive into tsunami science with our new #WhatsOnOurPlates? module Learning about Tsunami Waves!🌊Developed in partnership with AF8 and kindly sponsored by Natural Hazards Commission Toka Tū Ake
