What are earthflows and slumps?
Earthflows are made up of disintegrating soil and
weathered rock, which moves by inter-particle or
inter-layer shear above a failure plane in underlying
rock. The failure plane may be either planar or
curved. The ground surface breaks into hundreds of
hummocks, roughly aligned as curving ridges at
right angles to the direction of flow, and separated
by tension cracks which form low scarps (Figure 1).

It's been the best autumn I can remember since I arrived in New Zealand. This year, autumn was mellow and dry with cool morning temperatures. The trees lit up in a variety of gold, red and orange hues, attracting early-morning photographers to Tūpare. The grass in the garden was damp and earthy and late-flowering plants like dahlias and gaillardia provided a splash of summer colour, reminding us that it's not over yet.
