Don’t forget to check out a great webinar tomorrow by Lujia Feng from Earth Observatory SG on geodesy at the Sumatra subduction zone. This is at 9 am on 7th of March Singapore time, which is March 6th at 8 PM US East Coast time. Check your time zones and see below for the details!

Big, big congrats to Phil Barnes @niwa_nz who was awarded the 2023 Shepard medal for excellence in Marine Geology from SEPM Society for Sedimentary Geology! Phil has made huge advances in understanding offshore active margins, including much of what we know about the Hikurangi sepm.org/2023awardees

Great to see another awesome colleague recognised for their achievements today—Cornel de Ronde of GNS Science Te Pū Ao became a Fellow of Royal Society Te Apārangi ! His multidisciplinary work on circum-pacific arc volcanoes has really transformed our understanding of submarine volcanic processes👏

We are starting the process tonight of getting the temperature sensors and fluid sampler/flowmeter back into the splay fault IODP at Texas A&M Site U1518 at the Hikurangi subduction zone!🤞🤞that it works and that we get some good data when we come to retrieve it in five years!!

Ahoy from the R/V Thomas Thompson, University of Washington’s world-class research vessel, currently off the coast of NE New Zealand! Your friendly neighborhood PNSN social media person McKenzie here - I’ll be spending the next ~week on the Thompson doing Subduction Zone research. Follow along!

A nice story Liquid Robotics has put together on our recent Waveglider survey of GNSS-Acoustic arrays we have deployed offshore the eastern North Island to detect whether the offshore Hikurangi is locked-up and building stress to be relieved in future earthquakes

And that's a wrap (literally) on #PULSEeqnz !!! 🙌🎉 Thanks to EarthScope Consortium #IrisPasscal for the loan of the equipment! It's headed back your way soon 🚢🌊

A successful end to a very busy research cruise! ROV Jason rescued two bottom pressure recorders that we deployed in 2020, that weren’t responding when we came to retrieve them in 2021. So glad to finally get them back, and with some nice data as well!! #PULSEeqnz

A nice thread from @mckcarlson PNSN on our recent expedition to Hikurangi ! McKenzie will be joining us University of Texas Institute for Geophysics later this year to start PhD research on the pressure data we acquired to investigate offshore slow slip events! Looking forward to see what she discovers!

Really nice talk today⁩ from Jamie Gurney of ⁦@UKEQ_Bulletin⁩ fame, who spoke to us about the work he is doing ⁦GNS Science Te Pū Ao⁩ for a few months to improve our understanding of historical New Zealand earthquakes! Still so much to learn from these old quakes!

Our latest update of what the ongoing Manawatu slow slip event has been up to…this is one of our long term slow slip events on Hikurangi (this event has lasted about a year and a half so far), and it has been going strong in 2023.

Some more info on the ongoing Manawatu slow slip event from @Jamienzherald !

A sweeping Victoria University restructure has alarmed New Zealand’s tight-knit geoscience community – with one prominent earthquake scientist worried it could spell the loss of “world-renowned” expertise on our biggest natural hazards nzherald.co.nz/nz/fears-victo…

Eagle-eyed visitors to our website will have spotted a slow-slip earthquake (SSE), that our GNSS instruments have located near Hawkes Bay during the month of June. Today we give an update on what’s been happening beneath our feet. 👀👇geonet.org.nz/news/2oHVPr6zp… #eqnz
