A document with photographs and details of the four researchers from the National Council of Women of New Zealand (NCWNZ) project, Women's Voices: Recording women's stories of the Canterbury earthquakes. The researchers include Amanda England (from 2011 - 2012), Elizabeth Ashby (from 2013 - 2014), Rosemary Baird (2012 - 2014) and Brigid Buckenham (2013 - 2014).

This study led on from Earthquake hazard and risk assessment study Stage 1 Part A: Earthquake source identification and characterisation (Pettinga et al, 1998). It used the location and characteristics of active faults in the Canterbury region, and the historic record of earthquakes to estimate levels of ground shaking (MM intensity, peak ground acceleration and spectral accelerations) across Canterbury for different return periods. The study also provided earthquake scenarios for selected towns and cities in Canterbury, and undertook detailed investigations into the largest historic earthquakes in Christchurch and parts of the Canterbury region.

Interview with Engineering Geologist, Shamus Wallace. This interview was conducted by Emma Kelland as part of Deidre Hart's Coastal and River Earthquake Research project.
A research report by Ju-Ting (Tania) Lee written in 2013 during her studies towards a Bachelor of Applied Science at Unitec Institute of Technology. The report explores the effects of the Christchurch earthquakes on the behaviour and well-being of cats and dogs, according to their owners.
This study compiled and tabulated all relevant available information on earthquake sources (active faults) in Canterbury and mapped the fault locations onto 1:50,000 or 1:250,000 overlays on topographic maps (later digitised into the Environment Canterbury active faults database). The study also reviewed information on historic earthquakes, instrumental seismicity and paleoseismic studies and identified information gaps. It recommended an approach for a probabilistic seismic hazard analysis and development of earthquake scenarios. See Object Overview for background and usage information.
