This reminded me that I need to get a cap for running - got swooped on the trails in Perth at the weekend, they're evil! Love the jacarandas!

Apparently these are Eocene nummulites!

Next up is @mribo.bsky.social presenting some beautiful high resolution bathymetry data from Kaikōura Canyon!

Now into the scientific talks, starting with Canyon Geomorphology. Here Susi Woelz (NIWA) is talking about a dramatic landslide on the edge of Pegasus Canyon - offshore Aotearoa 🌊⚒️

This figure sums up the variation along the margin really nicely! 🌊🧪⚒️
Left panel—representative seismic profiles for each of the three northern (a), central (b) and southern (c) Hikurangi zones showing the key mass transport deposit (MTD) size, location and relationship to surrounding structures (for locations of seismic profiles see Figure 6a). Green arrows in seismic profiles represent bottom simulating reflection. Incoherent seismic facies interpreted to be sediment wave fields from overspilling channels are labeled adjacent to MTDs to demonstrate similarities in seismic facies. Right panel—schematic block diagrams of key morphostructural domains, relationships to landslide occurrence in bathymetry data (Watson et al., 2020) and MTD emplacement and preservation across each of the northern, central and southern zones along eastern Aotearoa New Zealand. Note: seismic profiles in left panel are not strictly represented within schematic diagrams.
