Mauri McSaveney

I am a geological research scientist of long standing, most recently in Engineering Geomorphology at GNS Science, New Zealand, and Visiting Professor, State Key Laboratory of Geohazard Prevention and Geoenvironment Protection, Chengdu University of Technology, Chengdu, China. I have a broad scientific background, though much of it has disappeared over my interest horizon. I have an enduring interest in earth-surface processes of all kinds and especially those relating to long-runout rock avalanches.

I enjoy thinking “outside the box” and challenging established dogma.
