  • Prof Tom Wilson (University of Canterbury, NZ) discusses the geological history of Taranaki volcanic eruptions, what the next big one could look like, and the effects it would have on our environment, infrastructure, economy, and people.
    In this seminar, Prof Wilson is presenting the research of Transitioning Taranaki to a Volcanic Future to the Public Information Managers at Taranaki Emergency Management.

    First saw the mountain in 1972 on my way to New Plymouth. Somewhere near Stratford suddenly became aware of the mountain.
    It amazed me standing there one solitary mountain. I was used to the southern alps coming from the south island.
    It truly amazed me, had no idea I had come for the surf not expecting to see something so amazing as that awesome beauty.

    Great talk!
    I've seen Ngauruhoe, Ruapehu and Tongariro erupt in my lifetime. I'm now 60 so it would be awesome if Mt Taranaki could manage at least a small "burp" in the next 40 years or so!

    Around the ? summer of 1982 I was climbing Mt Taranaki at night with a group from the Taranaki Alpine club as we entered the crater there was a very strong smell of H2S ..not just a Rotorua whiff ( I work in oil and gas so know what this is but couldn't give an estimate of the ppm ) ... as a group without hesitation we all turned around and ran away back down the mountain.

      I grew up in New Plymouth and recall as a youngster being concerned about an eruption. I had even considered escape paths. It was a short lived concern and seems a bit ridiculous now looking back.

    Given I live under the mountain on upper Norfolk rd I found this very interesting. In some ways reassuring as it seems we will have plenty of warning but I stand to loose everything. The thing is I'm not leaving either. Where would I go? Taranaki is an awesome place to be.

      You need to look a little more into social media and how it works then if you think that. Plenty of disaster prep videos on this platform get millions of views. This isn't some huge account with a whole lot of subscribers so of course it wouldn't have a heap of views.

    It's a sleeping giant, one day it will wake, mite be a subtle nudge or maybe wake up shouting and screaming, who knows what Taranaki has install, just accept the fact that it will erupt.

      @sixthsenseamelia4695 Hey Christians are rather very scientific, they were the ones after all that first came up of the idea of continental drift but that, that happened at a much faster rate, we just don't believe in absolute dumb stuff like evolution; monkeys turning into people, or "gods" that aren't real and don't believe that "earth is flat" kind of stuff.
      Quite clearly that is not "oxymoronic" it's people such as yourselves believing in nonsense such as maori myths and not realising how good the all the godly missionairies did when preaching civilisation to all the savages around the globe, so without them they would still be running around naked, killing and cannibalising each other, whilst wiping out their own "race".
      So if you believe in all their "pagan" beliefs and want it to be taught alongside science; go yourself catch the sun in a net and try to change its course with some "flax" ? Or either that go fish up an entire island that is actually a "fish" ?
