Out on the Wanganui coast NZ with third year Victo Out on the Wanganui coast NZ with third year Victoria Uni geology students today. These cliffs have the world's most complete geological record of global sea level change in the last 2.5 million years. These sea level changes represent about 20 glacial and interglacial cycles and can be seen in variations of deep and shallow water sediments in the cliffs. After deposition they were uplifted by tectonic forces so that we can see them today. #geology #sedimentology #sealevel #climatechange
Stream channels at Pigeon Bush near Wellington NZ, Stream channels at Pigeon Bush near Wellington NZ, show huge offsets caused by ruptures of the Wairarapa Fault during past earthquakes, including the greatest ever measured on-land globally. Yesterday I was with a local school group mapping the landforms and measuring the offsets, one of which is 18.5m from the 1855 earthquake. A world beating offset.
