I le tupu mai o lenei fa’alavelave fa’anatura, ua fa’avaeina ai se nofoaga 'autū mo su’esu’ega o mafui'e, le Earth Sciences New Zealand Headquarters, e su’esu’eina ma iloiloina fa’amaumauga e iloa ai le ono tō o se mafui'e.
O le mata’upu i su’esu’ega o mafui'e e fa’aigoaina o le seismology, ae o tagata e faia nei su’esu’ega, o seismologists.
O le ofisa o le Earth Sciences New Zealand Headquarters, o loo fa’auluulu ia Matt Gerstenbergerma na ia ta'ua, e matuā telē le avanoa o le toe tō o se mafui'e tele i Christchurch.
"It’s likely that we’ll see something like that again in the future; that we will see over the next hundred years maybe multiple magnitude sevens that occur kind of within New Zealand land mass. It’s possible that we’ll see something bigger offshore. The likelihood of that is much lower."
O le mafui'e lea na tō i le masina o Fepuari 2011 i Christchurch, na maliliu ai tagata e to'a 185 ma fa’aleagaina ai le tele o fale i le taulaga.
O se tasi o fale na matuā fa’aleagaina ai, o le malumalu o le Ekalesia Egelani na fausia i le 1881.
Na saunoa Peter Beck o ia na umia le tofi Dean o le Ekalesia, na i totonu o le malumalu i le taimi na tō ai le mafui'e:
It has to be one of sadness and pain. It was a painful day, and it changed my life and our lives here in the city forever. Did I ever get over it? No, I don’t think so."
Ua toe amataina le galuega o le toe fausia ma fa’alelei le malumalu o loo fa’amoemoe e faamae'a i le 2030.
Na saunoa se sui soo'upu o le pulega o le taulaga o Christchurch, Stephen Pennruscoe, o le lesona mai le mafui'e o le 2011, o le tatau lea ona lava tapena ma sauni ona e lē mailoa le taimi e toe tō ai seisi mafui'e tele:
“One of the key stories here that we give people is how to be more prepared for earthquakes and I feel that that is creating a much more resilient city."
O le nofoaga le Earth Sciences New Zealand Emergency Control Centre e lē o mamao mai le laumua i Ueligitone
Na fa’aalia e se tasi o saienisi e galue ai, Mike Ross, e 'ova i le 158,000 mafui'e itiiti na tō i le gataifale o Niu Sila i le 8 tausaga ua mavae - pe lata i le 150 i le tausaga. Na o se vaega itiiti o ia mafui'e e malolosi ma lūlūina ai le ‘ele’ele ma a’afia ai tagata:
"If it’s a big event, that’s threatening and we have to assess that threat, determine how big it is, where it is, possible consequences - if there’s a tsunami threat etcetera."
