  • Summary

  • Major earthquakes may not be a regular occurrence in New Zealand, but the threat of them is often in the back of our minds.

    With a major faultline running through the middle of the country, you only have to look to the events in Christchurch and Kaikoura to know the risk they pose.

    Now, new modelling has highlighted the impact a catastrophic quake could have on this country, and if we’re prepared for what that means.

    Today on The Front Page, Dr Bill Fry and Dr Matt Gerstenberger from GNS Science discuss the latest research on our seismic threat.

    You can read more about this and other stories in the New Zealand Herald, online at nzherald.co.nz, or tune in to news bulletins across the NZME network.
