WELLINGTON REGION Ing Countrydotted Withcute Townsandfamedwineries,Awild,Windsweptcoastline 378 Wellington Region If your New Zealand travels thus far have been all about the great outdoors and sleepy rural towns, this is the city that’ll blow the cobwebs away. Art-house cinemas, funky boutiques, hip bars, live-music venues and lashings of restaurants – it’s all in ‘Windy Welly’. Wellingtonians lay passionate claim to the crown of ‘cultural capital’, and the mantle is surely theirs. Suited-up civil servants there are, but the city also supports a significant popula- tion of creative types who foster an admirably active and accessible arts scene. It’s a proud, tight-knit town, where the citizenry are convinced they’re living in the world’s best-kept secret. As the crossing point between the North and South Islands, travellers have long been passing through these parts. Te Papa and Zealandia now have visitors stopping in their tracks, and even a couple of days’ pause will reveal its myriad other attractions – a beautiful harbour and walkable shoreline, hillsides clad in pretty weatherboard houses, ample inner- city surprises, and some of the freshest city air on the planet. Less than an hour away to the north, the Kapiti Coast offers more settled weather and a beachy vibe, with the Kapiti Island nature reserve a highlight. On a different tangent, but still only an hour away over the Rimutaka Range, lies the Wairarapa. Here you’ll find farm- ing country dotted with cute towns and famed wineries, and a wild, windswept coastline.

  • The 1934 Pahiatua Earthquake Sequence: Analysis of Observational and Instrumental Data
    221 THE 1934 PAHIATUA EARTHQUAKE SEQUENCE: ANALYSIS OF OBSERVATIONAL AND INSTRUMENTAL DATA Gaye Downes1' 2, David Dowrick1' 4, Euan Smith3' 4 and Kelvin Berryman1' 2 ABSTRACT Descriptive accounts and analysis of local seismograms establish that the epicentre of the 1934 March 5 M,7.6 earthquake, known as the Pahiatua earthquake, was nearer to Pongaroa than to Pahiatua. Conspicuous and severe damage (MM8) in the business centre of Pahiatua in the northern Wairarapa led early seismologists to name the earthquake after the town, but it has now been found that the highest intensities (MM9) occurred about 40 km to the east and southeast of Pahiatua, between Pongaroa and Bideford. Uncertainties in the location of the epicentre that have existed for sixty years are now resolved with the epicentre determined in this study lying midway between those calculated in the 1930' s by Hayes and Bullen. Damage and intensity summaries and a new isoseismal map, derived from extensive newspaper reports and from 1934 Dominion Observatory "felt reports", replace previous descriptions and isoseismal maps. A stable solution for the epicentre of the mainshock has been obtained by analysing phase arrivals read from surviving seismograms of the rather small and poorly equipped 1934 New Zealand network of twelve stations (two privately owned). The addition of some teleseismic P arrivals to this solution shifts the location of the epicentre by less than 10 km. It lies within, and to the northern end of, the MM9 isoseismal zone. Using local instrumental data larger aftershocks and other moderate magnitude earthquakes that occurred within 10 days and 50 km of the mainshock have also been located.
