Revised tephrochronology for key tephras in the 130-ka Orakei Basin maar core, Auckland Volcanic Field, New Zealand: implications for the timing of climatic changes

Leonie Peti et al.

Summary: Tephrochronology plays a crucial role in paleoclimate studies in New Zealand, especially in the Auckland Volcanic Field. By analyzing sediment sequences from Maar lakes in the AVF, researchers were able to refine existing tephra ages and potentially impact studies on volcanic eruption recurrence rates and timing of climatic changes in northern New Zealand.

Macro-characterisation of cave damage for palaeoseismological investigations in regions of low strain: A case study from central-western North Island (Waitomo caves), New Zealand

Jeffrey Lang et al.

Summary: Speleoseismology reconstructs palaeo-earthquake records from cave damage, but in regions of low seismic activity, cave features may fail spontaneously. A scheme for assessing and weighting diverse cave damage based on evidence quality is presented here. Analysis in New Zealand's Waitomo district identified multiple damage events, suggesting seismic hazard from subduction or shallow faulting.

What controls the remobilization and deformation of surficial sediment by seismic shaking? Linking lacustrine slope stratigraphy to great earthquakes in South-Central Chile

Ariana Molenaar et al.

Summary: The study reveals the presence of varying degrees of sediment remobilization and soft sediment deformation structures in slope sediments of two Chilean lakes, influenced by seismic intensity and peak ground acceleration. Seismic shaking is the dominant trigger for these sedimentary processes, with the duration and amplitude of ground motion controlling the development of soft sediment deformation structures.

Repetitive Late Pleistocene soft-sediment deformation by seismicity-induced liquefaction in north-western Lithuania

Szymon Belzyt et al.

Summary: This study describes multiple deformed sediment layers deposited during Marine Isotope Stage 5d in north-western Lithuania, emphasizing the potential role of recurrent palaeoseismic activity as the most likely trigger of deformation. The research contributes to constraining the depth of liquefaction and highlights the importance of seismic processes in shaping the sedimentary record in the intraplate region of north-eastern Europe.

Tephrochronology in Aotearoa New Zealand

Jenni L. Hopkins et al.

Summary: This article discusses the history and development of tephra studies in New Zealand, as well as the applications of tephrochronology in the country. It explores the characteristics, detection, and correlation methods of tephra, along with its diverse applications in climate, volcanic activity, marine records, and paleosol research.

Ground motion simulation of hypothetical earthquakes in the upper North Island of New Zealand

David Dempsey et al.

Summary: The study shows that the upper North Island of New Zealand is vulnerable to earthquakes on the Kerepehi and Wairoa North faults, with potential severe shaking near the source and liquefaction. Cities such as Auckland, Hamilton, and Tauranga could experience moderate to very strong shaking.
