Fantastic work by Prof. Hrvoje Tkalčić and Sheng Wang. Delicious analogy: the look and speed of slicing the cake through its layers in different directions is definitely a cool one!


Great article by Shane Cronin on why the volcanic eruption in Tonga was so violent, and what to expect next. #HungaTonga has an explosive past with a large submarine caldera and past ashfall preserved on Tongatapu. theconversation.com/why-the-volcan…


I always like when a leading hypothesis needs to change based on new scientific data as Shane Cronin discusses here.


A perspective on some of the big questions we need to answer to advance #GreenHydrogen in Aotearoa being led by researchers at University of Canterbury, Faculty of Science, University of Auckland School of Environment, The University of Auckland and Kēpa Morgan.

Oliver Reeve Check out Soilsafe Aotearoa - you can get your soil screened as part of a cool university-community-CRI project. This is a great first step to deciding whether to grow back yard veges and chooks.


After a two year hiatus, we finally welcomed -in person- prospective students to the University of Auckland | Waipapa Taumata Rau Faculty of Science, University of Auckland open day. Nick Richards did a fantastic work for the School of Environment, The University of Auckland booth, and a big thank you to student and staff volunteers! It was so energising to talk to all.



With this opportunity from MBIE Science we look forward towards advancing research to decarbonise Aotearoa. University of Canterbury, David Dempsey Mahi Maioro Professionals and Physics of Rocks Lab NZ have partnered with national Gns University of Otago and fantastic international collaborators in this effort. More soon…

Fascinating ongoing research on early life imprinted in stone by Kathleen Campbell Faculty of Science, University of Auckland
