**Laura Martin Wallace** FRSNZ bụ onye isi sayensị geodetic na-arụ ọrụ n'etiti Mahadum Texas na Austin na GNS Science na New Zealand . A họpụtara ya onye otu Royal Society Te Apārangi na 2018.

## Ndụ mmalite na agụmakwụkwọ
Wallace tolitere na Augusta, Georgia .  O bu n'obi ịmụ akwụkwọ Bekee na mahadum ma nwee nrọ ịghọ onye edemede.  Wallace gụchara akwụkwọ mmụta geology n'oge ogo mmụta mahadum ya na Mahadum North Carolina na Chapel Hill, wee gbanwee uche ya site na akwụkwọ gaa na sayensị ụwa.  Ọ gụsịrị akwụkwọ na nsọpụrụ na 1995 tupu ọ kwaga Mahadum California, Santa Cruz maka agụmakwụkwọ gụsịrị akwụkwọ. Ọ mụrụ tectonics nke Papua New Guinea site na iji geodetic na geophysical data.  Mgbe ọ gụchara akara mmụta doctoral ya, Wallace kwagara New Zealand iji mụọ mmalite nke ọrụ tectonic mpaghara.

## Nnyocha na ọrụ
Wallace tinyere aka na imepụta netwọkụ nke ụlọ ọrụ ntụaka 150 na-aga n'ihu Global Positioning System (cGPS) nke dị na gburugburu New Zealand iji mụọ geophysics mpaghara. Ọ na-eji cGPS ghọta mmegharị ọnụ ọgụgụ milimita nke ala.  N'afọ 2002, ọ bụ ya bụ onye mbụ gosipụtara mmemme mwepu nwayọ na mpaghara subduction Hikurangi n'ebe ọwụwa anyanwụ Gisborne, New Zealand .   Mpaghara subduction Hikurangi bụ otu n'ime ihe egwu ala dị egwu na New Zealand nwere ike bute ala ọma jijiji na mbufịt mbufịt.  Ihe omume Hikurangi Ocean Bottom Investigation of Tremor and Slow Slip (HOBITSS) gụnyere netwọk nke ngwa mmiri nke nwere ike tụọ mmegharị kwụ ọtọ nke oke osimiri, nke sitere na R/V Tangaroa.  Ngwa a na-enye ohere maka nhazi mkpebi dị elu nke mpaghara na-enweghị ike ịnweta na mbụ. Ihe omume mwepu nwayọ nke mere na Hikurangi mere ihe dị ka izu abụọ ma nwee ike bute ihe ruru 20&nbsp;cm nke ije n'akụkụ New Zealand na Plate Pacific .  O gosiputara na ihe mwepu a na-eme n'usoro okirikiri nke afọ ise na n'ime omimi ruru 50&nbsp;km - ọ bụ ezie na ụfọdụ adịghị omimi iji nye ohere nchịkọta na nyocha.  Wallace gosipụtara na ihe omume na-adịghị nwayọọ nwere ike ime ka akụkụ ndị na-emighị emi nke mmejọ - akụkụ ndị metụtara ala ọma jijiji na tsunami - nwere ike ịgbawa. 

Na 2018 Wallace duuru nrụnye nke ihe nleba anya n'okpuru oke osimiri n'ụsọ osimiri Gisborne, New Zealand .  Otu n'ime ndị na-ekiri ihe, *Te Matakite*, bụ onye mbụ na-ahụ maka nyocha na New Zealand nke dị na njedebe mpempe akwụkwọ ma nwee ike ịnye ozi nke anya mmadụ na-apụghị ịhụ.  Ya na ndị Australia na New Zealand Integrated Ocean Drilling Programme (IODP) Consortium rụkọrọ ọrụ iji wuo ndị na-ekiri ihe. Ejiri ngwa na akụrụngwa maka ihe nleba anya si n'ụsọ osimiri Hawke's Bay na 2018. Na 2020, a mara ọkwa na ise n'ime ngwá ọrụ iri atọ ahụ ruru $30,000 enweghị ike ịchọta ya.
