    GEOSCIENCES 09 Annual Conference Oamaru, NZ FIELD TRIP 7 VANISHED WORLD Wednesday 25 November 2009 Leader: Ewan Fordyce Geology Dept, University of Otago BIBLIOGRAPHIC REFERENCE: Fordyce, E. (2009). Vanished World. In: Turnbull, I.M. (ed.). Field Trip Guides, Geosciences 09 Conference, Oamaru, New Zealand. Geological Society of New Zealand Miscellaneous Publication 128B. 13 p. INTRODUCTION The trip has themes of: geological education/ geological sites; regional stratigraphy/ paleontology; and history of geology. It is based around localities from Papakaio to Duntroon-Maerewhenua, North Otago. We will visit a geological visitor centre - Vanished World Centre, Duntroon (www.vanishedworld.co.nz), and significant sites for the Paleogene of southern Canterbury Basin: Cameron's Pit (plant fossils, Cretaceous), Maerewhenua (shallow marine strata, sill, Eocene), and Awamoko-Duntroon (distal marine and unconformities, Oligocene). We will visit 1-2 of the sites specially developed for the public as part of the Vanished World Trail. Text, photos and graphics are by Ewan Fordyce. VANISHED WORLD The Vanished World Trail comprises a self-guided 80 km tour around some 20 geological sites in North Otago, on the coast from Waianakarua (south) to Oamaru (north), and inland to Duntroon in the Waitaki Valley. Sites are on public and private land; access to sites is free, but conditions may be imposed by some landowners. Some sites are close to or on roads, but others require a short walk. The trail is a community initiative developed by locals since 2000, in partnership with the University of Otago, to foster conservation, education and scientific study. The concept of Vanished World arose from local interest in, particularly, research on fossils from the district, but aims to take geology in the broadest sense to the public.

    University of Richmond Faculty Seminar to New Zealand and Australia Dan Roberts Assistant Professor Liberal Arts and History I. Introduction During May and June 2001, ten members of the faculty and staff of the University of Richmond attended the faculty seminar trip to New Zealand and Australia. Each Tuesday during the prior semester, members of the seminar gathered at the Office of International Education for briefings on background to the trip. Each member made a presentation on some aspect of the coming trip and on occasion visiting presenters joined us. Thus before the first bag was packed seminar participants were significantly exposed to the history, culture and social life of both nations. Members of the Seminar: Samuel Abrash, Mary Heen Charles Johnson Julie Laskaris Elizabeth MacNabb Penny Reynolds Dan Roberts Louis Schwartz John Gordon Kim Wilkins, Staff Visiting Presenters: Brendan O’Connell George Herring Ernie Stringer Ian Fairnie This report is organized following the progression of the trip. In essence, the seminar was an institution to institution encounter. We were the guests of four universities with which the University of Richmond has reciprocal arrangements. Part of our task was to examine, analyze and cultivate these relationships. Members of the seminar were to survey the institutional connections and be prepared to advise students and colleagues on opportunities for intellectual collaboration, study abroad and cultural interchange. and waiting….and waiting….and waiting……..
