And less than 24 hours later, National kills the Kermadec ocean sanctuary. So, pretty obviously, they're planning to mine it www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/...

Today in ‘fuck this right wing NZ govt’: they’ve scrapped the Kermadec ocean sanctuary.

"The Kermadec Ocean Sanctuary provided a wonderful opportunity to achieve a major global conservation win at very little cost," and its cancellation is a massive loss, says Jonathan Gardner.

The Tonga-Kermadec subduction zone frequently produces large earthquakes ranging from deep subduction quakes to shallow great earthquakes that sometimes produce tsunamis. This video explains the complex tectonics. youtu.be/ZV-Ki9SAciA

Black-winged petrels chase everything else in their chaotic airspace over colonies. Like true gadflies (insects), this juvenile Kermadec petrel - itself casing its original fledging site to alight for the first time in 2-3 years - is tail-buzzed right across the my study area. #SuperSeabirdSunday

Cancelling the Kermadec sanctuary?! Fucking bastards

A late offering for #SuperSeabirdSunday a male Kermadec Petrel has his partner drop back into the nest site. First meet-up after 5 months apart at sea.

Some petrels for #seabirds artworks for #superseabirdsunday I'll post more works later. Round Island petrels (Kermadec/Trinidade/ Herald); 'hidden gems' series storm petrels/Leach's petrel & Manx shearwaters/Balearic shearwater; storm petrels/Leach's petrel; great skuas & Leach's petrels

The Kermadec region to the north of New Zealand is a highly seismically active region where the Pacific Plate is subducting beneath the Australian Plate. The Kermadec Trench through to Tonga is commonly called the Kermadec-Tonga Trench and has the potential to produce M 9+ earthquakes. 2/ 🧪

Meet the white-necked petrel (Pterodroma cervicalis). There’s a small population of 30-40 pairs that nest on Phillip Island (Norfolk Island 🇳🇫). The rest are in the Kermadec Islands. #Seabirds

Kermadec Petrel ‘606’ has done a great job as a first-time parent on Phillip Island, Norfolk. However, nest placement means every blowy day is a bad-hair-day! #SuperSeabirdSunday#Seabirds🪶

Combining a stunning Phillip Island sunset this week, in remarkably still conditions, with Kermadec petrels prospecting over their colony. Peaceful and memorable. #SuperSeabirdSunday

A quick summary of 2025 New Zealand earthquakes. GeoNet located more than 21 000 earthquakes in New Zealand and the Kermadec region. Magnitudes range from -0.3 – 6.8 and depth from 0 (just below the surface) – 750 km. 1/ 🧪

Subtropical breeding, surface-nesting Kermadec petrel chick on Phillip Island off Norfolk. Study in its 8th year. At one of our sub-colonies aptly named ‘Mars’. Feeling immensely privileged to have such access. #SuperSeabirdSunday 🪶

A l’étranger, les grands gagnants d’une telle politique ne sont ni les étudiants, ni les universités, ni les finances publiques, mais les acteurs financiers et les entreprises de conseil, pointent les universitaires David Flacher et Hugo Harari-Kermadec.

#OTD 9/29/2009: A tsunami killed 192, brought destruction to the Kermadec-Tonga Subduction Zone in the south Pacific. This event sent a tsunami towards American Samoa, Samoa and the Tonga Islands.

#DailyGlimmer Yesterday was a day of 4 Huons , Sthn Tasmania, Lutruwita.

Huon comes from Captain Huon de Kermadec who was the second-in-command of the French colonial 1792–1793 expedition led by Admiral Bruni d'Entrecasteaux.

1st Huon is Huonville

Deploying and recovering Global Light Sensors on seabirds on remote islands -fickle and frustrating. Recoveries can have a 5% failure-despite that effort. Occasionally it’s gold! 3 Migrate units from Kermadec petrels of 1, 4 and 8 years deployment with 49 month battery life well exceeded.#seabirds🧪🪶

I’ll start the series of looking at New Zealand seismicity with the Kermadec region north of New Zealand. I’ll move roughly north-to-south. 1/

I may not be with IRIS (now EarthScope) anymore, but I still love working with them on animations!

Here is a brand new animation on the Tonga-Kermadec Trench.

Wind blown Kermadec petrel chick for #SuperSeabirdSunday -same location as last years’ with returned 2021 fledgling-606- doing it 2-years in a row. That’s a great start for her breeding career as I’ve got another monitored bird that’s still going strong at 33 years.
