Abstract:

The Marine Observations of Anisotropy at Ataroa (MOANA) and

Hikarangi Ocean Bottom Investigation of Slow Slip (HOBITSS) are

two recent ocean bottom seismic experiments offshore New

Zealand. The MOANA experiment is focused on the South Island and

the transform plate boundary, with a large aperture (nearly 1000

km) and station spacing of 100 km. Data from the 30 broadband

OBS of MOANA have been used for studies of anisotropy, seismic

tomography, and earthquake studies, which will be reviewed in

this talk. The HOBITSS experiment is ongoing and is a

collaborative US-Japan-New Zealand project focused on the

Hikurangi subduction zone and megathrust of New Zealand’s

North Island, and includes both seismic and seafloor pressure

measurements to better constrain characteristics of slow slip.
