2025 GSNZ President Tour: Martian monsters, giant landslides, and recipes for disaster: Landslide curiosities, hazards, and a slippery future
Come along to briefly hear of the latest developments of the GSNZ, including new training and funding opportunities. You will have the opportunity to provide feedback or suggestions to the President.
Sam will then take you on a foray through the fascinating world of landslides, from the unbelievably large landslides on Mars to common problems in your back yard. The talk will explore why New Zealand has so many landslides and why they cost more than any other natural hazard. Some thoughts will be given to the big questions in landslide science and projections for landslides in a warming world.
