Abstract
R. C. HAYES, acting director of the Dominion Observatory, Wellington, New Zealand, has been investigating the origins of earthquakes in New Zealand (“Earthquake Origins in the New Zealand Region”. Dominion Observatory Bulletin No. S.62). Using new material and improved methods, Hayes has redetermined the epicentres and depths of focus of several earthquakes in the New Zealand region for the years 1931 and 1936-40 inclusive, and has prepared a map showing these epicentres.
