[PAR] [TLE] Charles Lyell [SEP] Sir Charles Lyell, 1st Baronet, {'1': ", '2': ", '3': ", '4': "} (14 November 1797 – 22 February 1875) was a Scottish geologist who popularised the revolutionary work of James Hutton.  He is best known as the author of "Principles of Geology", which presented uniformitarianism–the idea that the Earth was shaped by the same scientific processes still in operation today–to the broad general public.  "Principles of Geology" also challenged theories popularised by Georges Cuvier, which were the most accepted and circulated ideas about geology in Europe at the time. [PAR] [TLE] 1855 Wairarapa earthquake [SEP] The 1855 Wairarapa earthquake occurred on 23 January at about 9 p.m., affecting much of the Cook Strait area of New Zealand, including Marlborough in the South Island and Wellington and Wairarapa in the North Island.  In Wellington, close to the epicenter, shaking lasted for at least 50 seconds.  The moment magnitude is estimated to have been in the range 8.2–8.3, the most powerful recorded in New Zealand since systematic European colonisation began in 1840.  This earthquake was associated with the largest observed movement on a strike-slip fault, maximum 18 m .  It has been suggested that the surface rupture formed by this event helped influence Charles Lyell to link earthquakes with rapid movement on faults.
