Rainfall-triggered shallow slope failures are very common in the western Southern Alps of
New Zealand, causing widespread damage to property and infrastructure, injury and loss of …

Faulting and folding in the Southern Taranaki Basin constrain the evolution of the New
Zealand plate boundary since~ 80 Ma. Sedimentary rocks up to 8 km thick record multiple …

In this work, we prove the usefulness of morphometric analyses, typically applied to basin-
border faults, to define the tectonic geomorphology of a slow-moving, intrabasinal structure …

High-resolution airborne LiDAR and field map** were used to investigate a 29 km-long
section of the Hurunui segment of the Hope Fault concealed beneath beech forest …

Coseismic landsliding presents a major hazard to infrastructure in mountains during large
earthquakes. This is particularly true for road networks, as historically coseismic landsliding …

The gravel-bed Waiho River, Westland, New Zealand, has been aggrading for several
decades in response to the construction of flood control works. It poses a severe and …

Abstract The Alpine Fault zone in New Zealand marks a major transpressional plate
boundary that is late in its typical earthquake cycle. Understanding the subsurface structures …

The active mountains of New Zealand's Southern Alps have hosted a large number of
geomorphic investigations over the past few decades, attempting to understand how the …

Rock-avalanches (RAs) are a large (typically> 10 6 m 3) and extremely rapid (30-> 100 m/s)
type of landslide. RAs pose a significant hazard as they can runout over long distances and …

Increasing number of seismic stations located in close proximity to active faults allows
analysis of seismic signals that are recorded in near fault regions. Unique seismic signals …
