🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Excellent clearly explained video, ans great visuals and footage. Thank you!

A 300 ft Tsunami hit east coast of Australia a long time ago I wonder where it came from ?

I remember this I did a project for school on it

It would help if the GNS guys came across as more sincere. I was surprised to discover so much of the tsunami research is flawed. This is in relation to the historical events along the West Coast of the SI. The works of Prof Goff cover articles about the 1870 tsunami which never even happened. That is pure fiction. The research by de Lange and Healy must also be questionable. They also either covered events that never happened, or that they grossly exaggerated. Will there be any effort getting put into investigating their claims and correcting our history ? I can't even get a reply from GNS or the science community.

Is there any correlation between the alpine fault in NZ and the Cascade fault on the American west coast? They both had their last major event in the early 1700's, they both border the pacific plate, they're both slip around the 250-350 year cycle. They're both overdue for the next one? Is there any pattern? 1700 then 1717? Has anyone looked at the data side by side?

If the forests behind the coast line of Oreti beach provide protection why has one of them been ripped up in its entirety? Theres nearly nothing left of the forest to the right before the 30km sign, close to the gun ranges.

Fascinating

I haven’t heard any mention of god but that’s who you call on when something happens ‘

The Alpine Fault will cause regional devastation with a large loss of life it is an MM7 to 8. The Vid is trying to educate the local population to prepare for the event. Essentially half of South Island will be isolated. But the comments...wow...driving test...maybe their tin foil hat slipped?

Your Maori pronunciation is very good

Hi Caroline 👋, Awesome scientific research.

People would not pull together to help each other today like this because western societies have become too fragmented and divided (and it's by design).

Those British cars that were around in NZ during the 70s and 80s were a real eyesore.

Good old Southland fighting Spirit...people came/pulled together to get it cleaned up and pumped out the Airport...big Auction of water logged Cars n trucks later on

Apparently it's supposed to happen this decade, so sometime in the 2020s era Bring it on, as long as it gets the stress out now, we'll know, it'll take forevermore to do so again after that People we can get through this, I mean, who does this thing think it is, trying to shake us off our little but awesome country, sumbish 🌎 😂

Thanks for the great information..

Very interesting..

Do you have a current update for Southland please?

Really good info for all locals & the need to vacuate sufficiently during emergencies & danger. Thank you

We need a small fleet of airships as all roads will be out for months

Thank you jesus from new Zealand island s ✝️✝️✝️🌈❤️ repent Jesus is coming 😊 praise the lord

when pointing out the alpine fault system, it seems all geologist point to a simple skinny line in the earths crust, surely it would be better represented as a broader line/areas which slides over each other, giving it a 1 to 3 meter width, , when explaining such a great mass surely a better grasp of the ability for those masses to be able to slide over or along side each other requires a wider line of lubrication in order to move, just saying Techtronic plate movement isn't as simple as simple thin line

nice one craig great and infomative

Thanks so much for such a great presentation.👍👍👍

What your thought's if the Alpine fault went at once .So like from the Southern end right up to the northern end all went at once ?

Well done Ursula, I'm surprised how few people have viewed this video, and how few have given it a thumbs up. Keep up the good work. I flew commercial aircraft into Milford from Wanaka for 6 years and would do a small 90 deg turn over lake McKerrow to show the line of the fault. Its magnificent country.

Great Info. Just one thing that is also a threat to us is a Space objects can also cause devastating coastal destruction and may have shaped our coastline more than we realise and they can hit anywhere rather than by faultlines.

Thanks👍

My dad would be around 23 when this happened

I love learning about the history of my suburb i from Tuatapere

I hope I do not live to see it happen. But let me tell you, I'd rather be in the South Island when the Alpine fault lets go than in the North Island when Taupo next erupts. Taupo supervolcano has the added "bonus" of changing the climate in a major way.

Southland is so close to sea level so any tsunami would be devastating. Same with Canterbury

2.18 .. "provide a real big tsunami to the coastline" ???? REALLY poor vocabulary you! 😲 you in science or kohanga reo ??

Very interesting video! But... why are you standing there!!!!!😧 brave soul ...

Just learned something : only 50% of waves draw out before the waves come

After the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake the Clarence river was dammed. Is it still dammed?

Thank you for this very well done educational video on helping us to understand earthquake results.

Thank you for keeping us informed about the earthquake history and details in the Alpine Fault. Your work is much appreciated.

Thank you for sharing - Love these types of talks

Excellent video, thank you for sharing and making us aware of these faults, I will add it to the others around the world that have the potential to rupture in my life time. I like geologists they are always polite and say it's my fault.

A very concise presentation.. Obviously a man who knows his topic.

if you know a decade ago that earthquake occurred then will you leaves the places

i will give an idea so we know next date of earthquake before the time so we got more time to escaped

put two poles apart the fault line with a very strong and tight rope of steel with scale so every moments are visible in millimetres scale

all your knowledge is limited without knowing about distance wise correlation between mahakala mandir of ujjain in India this fact will gives whole universe a new kind of insight

use the sea waved energy by using very long handle and mechanical method will give heating technique by direct current

cooking your food by using the sea waved energy

use the long long handle for electricity by mechanical method so we got energy from magnetic induction and boiling water from this system by using directly current heating technique
