I attended a morning tea celebration of the life and work of molluscan paleontologist extraordinaire Alan Beu, held at @gnsscience today. It was a real pleasure and a special time. Many of Alan's colleagues, and also family shared their best memories of an amazing man.

When it comes to the development of an Earthquake Early Warning System for Aotearoa New Zealand "End user objectives will drive the science, the choice of sensor technology, and how the public will respond to alerts" says @Carolinenz59 of @SeismoCity. #GSNZ2022

@SallyHPotter of @gnsscience's take home message: "Next time you receive a hazard warning, reflect on how you are reacting to it and why. What is your threshold to act and what can you do to reduce your risk?"
