ABSTRACT Following the 2016 M7.8 Kaikōura earthquake, a time-varying seismic hazard model (KSHM) was developed to inform decision-making for the reinstatement of road and rail networks in the northern South Island. The source model is the sum of a gridded 100-year earthquake clustering model and an updated fault source model. The gridded model comprises long-term, medium-term and short-term components. The 100-year gridded model is constructed as the sum of 100 annual forecasts. A discounting method trades off expected earthquake occurrences of the distant future against those of the near future. The fault source model includes updates to account for newly revealed faults that ruptured in the Kaikōura earthquake and other recently obtained new information, and new time-varying probabilities of rupture for four fault segments. Two different characterisations of the Hikurangi subduction interface are incorporated via a logic tree, with weights determined by an expert panel. A suite of ground motion prediction equations contribute to a logic tree in order to account for epistemic uncertainties in source modelling for each of four tectonic region types. Here, we compare the resulting hazard estimates with the 2010 National Seismic hazard Model and recorded motions in past New Zealand and global earthquakes.

ABSTRACT A large enigmatic fossil is described from the early Cambrian (Series 2, Stage 3) Heatherdale Shale in the Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia. It has an almost circular outline about 150 mm across, with an outer rim and 27–30 evenly-spaced rays that extend about two-thirds of the distance to the centre of the structure; it shows radial symmetry. There is a featureless central area with a width about one-third that of the entire specimen. The fossil is preserved as pale-coloured material that stands out slightly above the surrounding mudstone. XRF data indicate that there is little compositional difference between the fossil and the enclosing rock. The fossil may appear to be a transverse section of a larger organism, but it does not continue down into the surrounding rock. This suggests it is a non-mineralised compression fossil that retains the remnants of a three-dimensional structure. Possible affinities with radiodont oral cones, ctenophores, eldonioids, scyphozoa and archaeocyaths are discussed, but no definite assignment can be made.

ABSTRACT The lithostratigraphy of Early Paleozoic metasediments from southern Fiordland is described, with three groups and 14 formations formally defined. In southwest Fiordland, the Fanny Bay Group is a quartz-rich succession of metamorphosed sandstone, mudstone, and quartzite; the Cameron Group is a lithologically variable succession of metavolcanic, psammitic, pelitic and calc-silicate rocks; the Edgecumbe Group is a volcaniclastic succession of metaconglomerate, metasandstone, and metabasalt. South-central Fiordland schists and gneisses are subdivided into either amphibolitic, pelitic, or psammitic lithological associations. Based on fossils, detrital zircon ages, intrusive relationships, and correlation with rocks in northwest Nelson, Fanny Bay Group is most likely latest Cambrian to Late Ordovician whereas Cameron and Edgecumbe groups, together with the south-central Fiordland metamorphic rocks, are likely to be middle to late Cambrian. Fanny Bay lithostratigraphy most closely matches that of the Buller Terrane of northwest Nelson, whereas the Edgecumbe Group most closely matches the northwest Nelson Cambrian lithostratigraphy of the Takaka Terrane. Cameron Group and south-central Fiordland metasediments are similar to each other but their relationship to northwest Nelson rocks is unclear. The Old Quarry Fault separates the Fanny Bay Group from the Edgecumbe and Cameron groups, and is probably a southern continuation of northwest Nelson’s Anatoki Fault.

ABSTRACT The magnitude 7.8 earthquake that struck North Canterbury, on the east coast of New Zealand’s South Island on 14 November 2016 had significant impacts and implications for the community of Kaikōura and surrounding settlements. The magnitude and scope of this event has resulted in extensive and ongoing geological and geophysical research into the event. The current paper complements this research by providing a review of existing social science research and offering new analysis of the impact of the earthquake and its aftermath on community resilience in Kaikōura over the past five years. Results demonstrate the significant economic implications for tourism, and primary industries. Recovery has been slow, and largely dependent on restoring transportation networks, which helped catalyse cooperation among local hospitality providers. Challenges remain, however, and not all sectors or households have benefited equally from post-quake opportunities, and long-term recovery trajectories continue to be hampered by COVID-19 pandemic. The multiple ongoing and future stressors faced by Kaikōura require integrated and equitable approaches in order to build capability and capacity for locally based development pathways to ensure long-term community resilience.

ABSTRACT The early Miocene palaeolake Manuherikia in Central Otago, South Island, New Zealand is a prime source for reconstructing the terrestrial and freshwater biota of past Zealandia. Otoliths of fishes that once lived in this lake system were first described in 2012. Here we report the results of extensive additional sampling resulting in a total of 16,500 fish otoliths from a wide set of stratigraphic levels and environmental settings within the Bannockburn Formation near St Bathans. Six new species are described: Galaxias crassus, Galaxias naviculus, Galaxias nitidus, Galaxias polei, Galaxias tholus, Mataichthys asymmetricus. The entire freshwater otolith-based fish fauna of the Bannockburn Formation now encompasses 17 species, 10 in Galaxiidae, 2 in Prototroctidae and 5 in Eleotridae; all families present in the freshwater systems of New Zealand today. Correlation with putative related extant taxa reveal that the fishes from the Bannockburn Formation were relatively large, often at the upper margin of the extant sizes of fishes in the respective groups or even larger. This ‘Gulliver’ fish fauna is consistent with other fossil and extant ‘gulliverisms’ observed in various Zealandian biota. Environmental and putative evolutionary explanations, aspects of the taphocoenosis and possible stratigraphic implications of the otolith assemblages are discussed.

ABSTRACT The Hundalee Fault forms part of the southeastern margin of the 2016 Kaikōura Earthquake rupture zone. Its late Quaternary activity and structural character may offer insights to fault interrelationships associated with the 2016 rupture. Mapping of the Hundalee Fault revealed several pre-existing fault scarps. Trenching of a scarp across a fluvial terrace together with radiocarbon dating shows the occurrence of at least two, probably three, surface ruptures since 3.5 ka. The scarp records about 2.5 m of reverse-sense vertical deformation, mostly folding, of which ∼0.6 m occurred in 2016, along with subordinate sinistral slip. Fluvial terrace ages inferred from geomorphological relationships, together with the trenching results, indicate a long-term vertical slip rate of 0.2–0.4 mm/yr since at least 30 ka. Geological data indicate a relatively recently surface emergence of the Hundalee Fault from beneath a fault propagation fold. The 2016 Hundalee Fault rupture is interpreted as a break-out from an extensive blind thrust fault, whose motion triggered predominantly contractional rupture of an array of steeper near-surface faults. The thrust is hypothesised as having provided linkage in the 2016 rupture between the predominantly strike-slip ruptures of The Humps Fault to the southwest and the Kekerengu Fault to the northeast.
