Solar Tsunamis
The Solar Tsunamis Endeavour Programme is an international collaboration led by the University of Otago to understand how New Zealand’s energy infrastructure will be impacted by an extreme space weather event. Read more
Retrieval of volcanic ash plume height to better quantify and forecast ash loading
This project focusses on the retrieval of the height of volcanic ash plumes, using satellite imagery analysed to reveal the presence of ash (e.g. Read more
Deep learning surface wave analysis
The National Building Code requires the study of the local seismic effects of any new large building. The use of seismic auscultation methods is an essential part of this work. Read more
Full waveform seismic processing for mineral exploration
The search for very deep deposits is becoming more and more important in mineral exploration. Due to the absence of surface indicators and the prohibitive cost of deep drilling, indirect methods, such as geophysical surveys, are essential in such context. Read more
Mapping the coupling properties of the subduction megathrust using seismic data
The properties of the subduction interface between plates vary in both space and time. Read more
Cosmic-Ray Muons in Different Applications
Research Group:
Particle Physics and Particle Astrophysics
Cosmic-ray muons are known to be useful in applications beyond particle astrophysics. They have helped with mapping structure of volcanoes and with finding voids in various geological structures. Read more
Fully-Funded OIST International PhD Program
The Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST) accredited in 2011 as a graduate university located in a beautiful subtropical island of Okinawa, Japan. Read more
Quantum magnetometers for healthcare and fundamental physics
The combination of atomic magnetic resonance with emerging optical and photonic technologies is enabling the development and application of new quantum magnetometers with exciting applications in healthcare, geophysics, navigation and industrial applications. Read more

Microbial and biogeochemical processes through the ocean-sediment continuum
Research Group:
Earth Surface Science
The interface between the ocean and subseafloor sediments is a critical boundary that influences life in the deep biosphere, the transport and transformation of organic carbon and nutrients, and the global carbon cycle. Read more
Microbial activity on glaciers and ice sheets: an integrated modelling and empirical approach.
Research Group:
Earth Surface Science
Glaciers and ice sheets are important microbe-dominated ecosystems, that are undergoing rapid changes due to climate change. Supraglacial (glacier surface) ecosystems contain organisms from all three domains of life, which drive carbon and nutrient cycling, and cause ice darkening, thus enhancing ice mass loss. Read more
