The Sea vs. The Land – Who Will Triumph?
26 Marine Parade, Napier
We invite you to join us for an insightful lecture presented by the 2024 Hochstetter Lecturer, David Barrell of GNS Science. This talk will delve into the dynamic relationship between Aotearoa New Zealand’s land and sea, exploring the ongoing battle between tectonic forces that raise the land and the ocean waves that relentlessly erode it. With a focus on Zealandia’s geological, tectonic, and landscape evolution, David will provide a ‘whole system’ perspective on how these powerful natural forces have shaped our diverse coastline over millennia and will continue to do so in the future, particularly in light of climate change.
