The Tairāwhiti Gisborne region & northern Alpine and Wairau faults are now added to our upgraded Active Fault Database webmap. 🙌
People in these seismically active areas can now see where active fault surface traces lie in their neighbourhood down to the property level. 🔍

Watch as a mysterious seismic wave sweeps around the world, buzzing seismometers from Greenland to Antarctica in less than an hour!
The signal appeared in Sept 2023, sending scientists on an epic hunt for their cause (🎥 via @seismo_steve, @K_Svennevig, and Alexis Marbeouf)

9/11. Remembering the call from Marvel. "Peter is a New Yorker. We have to address this. We want you to do it." Not knowing if I was up to it. John Romita Jr breaking down over the images. Remembering the lost, the wounded and those who fought to save them youtube.com/watch?v=JB4GIVAf…

🌊GNS Scientists have used a state-of-the-art earthquake simulator to re-run the numbers on the tsunami-generating Hikurangi-Kermadec subduction zone – and it is good news!

A gas flight has confirmed an increase in the amount of volcanic gas being emitted from Whakaari/White Island. Satellite data also suggests a modest increase in the amount of volcanic ash in the plume since last Friday compared to the beginning of the eruptive activity in May.

⚡ New Zealand's electricity demand is projected to surge 50% by 2050. Wholesale prices have leapt from $100/MWh to nearly $860/MWh in less than three years.
The good news is NZ has a potential #superhot energy solution👉 i.mtr.cool/lshhgajiot

🎧Listen to GNS Science volcano seismologist Dr Oliver Lamb explain how this rare type of earthquake may have led to an almost equally rare tsunami in Lake Taupō in 2022 - causing damage to boats and the foreshore in its wake.
