Members of the Tephra Seismites group and colleagues from UoW Earth Sciences attended the annual Waikato Regional Natural Hazards Forum at Hauraki District Council, Paeroa, on Friday 20 November. They joined colleagues from district and regional councils, Civil Defence and Emergency Management, and other research institutes to hear about and discuss aspects of natural hazard management and mitigation, with a focus on community engagement.
The Waikato team, including four (post)graduate students, gave a series of short ‘lightning talks’ on current research about newly-discovered faults in Hamilton and the liquefaction potential of lacustrine ash layers.
