INTRODUCTION The age of many mid-late Quaternary surfaces in the area between Wanganui and Palmerston North has been poorly known because: 1. The marine terraces are not as well defined as they are west of Wanganui (Pillans, 1990). 2. The wave cut surfaces are difficult to locate, and the underlying sediments are sand dominated and softer. 3. The loess cover on marine and river terraces is of the Pallic Soil facies, i.e. pale grey and mottled, making paleosols difficult to see in the poorly drained loess.

Ryan ([email protected]) Abstract: This paper presents the current state-of-knowledge of the Aotearoa New Zealand (Aotearoa) last interglacial (MIS 5 sensu lato) sea-level record compiled within the framework of the World Atlas of Last Interglacial Shorelines (WALIS) 15 database. Seventy-seven total relative sea-level (RSL) indicators (direct, marine-, and terrestrial-limiting points), commonly in association with marine terraces, were identified from over 120 studies reviewed. Extensive coastal deformation around New Zealand has prompted research focused on active tectonics, which requires less precision than sea-level reconstruction. The range of last interglacial paleo-shoreline elevations are resulted in a significant range of elevation measurements on both the North Island (276.8 ± 10.0 to -94.2 ± 10.6 m amsl) and South Island (173.1165.8 ± 2.0 to -70.0 ± 10.3 m amsl) and 20 prompted the use of RSL indicators tohave been used to estimate rates of vertical land movement; however, indicators in many instances lackk adequate description and age constraint for high-quality RSL indicators.

  • Megasequence Architecture of Taranaki, Wanganui, and King Country Basins and Neogene Progradation of Two Continental Margin Wedges Across Western New Zealand
    Megasequence architecture of Taranaki, Wanganui, and King Country basins and Neogene progradation of two continental margin wedges across western New Zealand Peter JJ Kamp1, Adam J Vonk1, Kyle J Bland1, Angela G Griffin1, Shaun Hayton1&2, Austin JW Hendy1, Avon P McIntyre1, Campbell S. Nelson1, Tim Naish3 1Department of Earth Sciences, The University of Waikato, Private Bag 3105, Hamilton 2001, New Zealand 2Geosphere Exploration Services Ltd, P.O. Box 44 285, Lower Hutt, New Zealand 3Geological and Nuclear Sciences Ltd, P.O. Box 30 368, Lower Hutt Abstract Taranaki, Wanganui and King Country basins (formerly North Wanganui Basin) have been regarded as discrete basins, but they contain a very similar Neogene sedimentary succession and much of their geologi- cal history is held in common. Analysis of the stratigraphic architecture of the fill of each basin reveals the occurrence of four 2nd order megasequences of tectonic origin. The oldest is the early-early Miocene (Otaian Stage) Mahoenui Group/megasequence, followed by the late-early Miocene (Altonian Stage) Mokau Group/megasequence (King Country Basin), both of which correspond to the lower part of the Manganui Formation in Taranaki Basin. The third is the middle to late Miocene Whangamomona Group/megasequence, and the fourth is the latest Miocene-Pleistocene Rangitikei Supergroup/megasequence, both represented in the three basins. Higher order sequences (4th, 5th, 6th), having a eustatic origin, are evident in the Whangamomona and Rangitikei megasequences, particularly those of 5th order with 41 ka periodicity. The distribution of the megasequences are shown in a series of cross-section panels built-up from well -to-well correlations, complemented by time-stratigraphic cross-sections.

GeoSciences ’08 Dickinson et al. Wanganui Sea Level Cycles, Tephras & Terraces 121 Programme Overall Objective: Although Wanganui basin sediments have been studied since 1940’s, this field-trip will emphasize the role of high-resolution integrated chronology (tephra, biostratigraphy, and paleomagnetism) to provide a framework for understanding Plio-Pleistocene sea-level and climate reconstruction. Key references are given at the end of this field guide. 26 November Depart Wellington - 5 pm • Dinner on road (recommended Manor Café 3km So of Bulls) • Accommodation: Whanganui River Top 10 Holiday Park (460 Somme Parade) 27 November DAY 1 Objective: We will start the day by looking at outcropping shallow-marine sediment of the Nukumaruan Group beneath the Brunswick Marine Terrace (c. 310 ka; Stage 9). We will then proceed to Rangitatau East Road where we will examine a loess-paleosol sequence with intercalated tephra and dune sand on one of the oldest uplifted marine terrace remnants in the Wanganui area.

Using a geology-based assessment methodology, the USGS estimated mean volumes of 487 million barrels of oil, 9.8 trillion cubic feet of gas, and 408 million barrels of natural gas liquids. 170° 175° Introduction The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) World 35° Energy Resources Project conducts assessments of the potential for undiscovered, technically recov- erable oil and natural gas resources of the world, Auckland exclusive of the United States.
