The uOttawa Geophysics Group is actively preparing for the Aotearoa-Canada Amphibious Plate-boundary Seismotectonics (ACAPS) workshop to be held at Victoria University of Wellington (VUW), New Zealand, in February 2027. This workshop is jointly organized by VUW professor Martha Savage and our group, and will involve the participation of several Canadian and New Zealand researchers who will share their research on the structure and dynamics of tectonic plate boundaries. This workshop is funded by a Catalyst: Leaders grant to Profs.
The uOttawa Geophysics Group will be very active at the upcoming 2026 CGU Meeting in Halifax. Check out the presentations below!
