Upcoming events
Webinar: Next generation earthquake & tsunami hazard and response
Our Earthquake-Tsunami team are using earthquake cycle simulators to create a million year catalogue of ‘synthetic earthquakes’. Dr Bill Fry (GNS Science) and Prof Andy Nicol (University of Canterbury) will introduce the current version of New Zealand’s first model of the full seismic cycle. The new catalogue has many applications, including potential to underpin next generation earthquake and tsunami hazard models.
When: Tuesday 9 March, 11am-12pm.
