title: Maori perspectives of the environment: A review of Environment Waikato information sources.

authors: Whangapirita, Laura

subjects: Maori

abstract: The Community and Economy Programme at Environment Waikato has developed a partnership with the Maori and Psychology Research Unit of the University of Waikato to further assist in strengthening its commitment to cultural research and information work. This relationship will facilitate the development of a number of significant research reports throughout 2003.  This initial report describes an internal review conducted by the Maori and Psychology Research Unit to identify what information Environment Waikato currently holds on Maori environmental perspectives.

title: The reform of Maori land tenure and the quest for sustainability in New Zealand

authors: Jay, Grace Mairi M.

subjects: geography

abstract: Many of the countries of the Pacific region (including Australia and New Zealand) have a British colonial legacy. This history has had wide implications for the development of the region: economically, politically and socially. The cadastral (property based) systems in these countries have been influenced by British land conveyance and registration practices, and by colonial history. To date, Australia and new Zealand are still trying to resolve land tenure and information problems which are steeped in historical and ethnic dimensions. Land is the single most important factor for Maori development in New Zealand, and has great implications for the development of this country.

title: Synthesis and structure of the amidate-bridged platinum-uranium bimetallic complex [Pt{NC(O)CH₂CH₂}₂(PPh₃)₂].UO₂(NO₃)₂

authors: Henderson, William

subjects: crystal structures

abstract: The reaction of the β-propiolactam-derived platinum(II) amidate complex [Pt{NC(O)CH₂CH₂}₂(PPh₃)₂]with uranyl nitrate gives the coordination complex [Pt{NC(O)CH₂CH₂}₂(PPh₃)₂].UO₂(NO₃)₂, which was characterised by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. The lactam carbonyl groups are coordinated to the linear uranyl group, forming an eight-membered ring, with the uranium also having two bidentate nitrates, completing a hexagonal bipyramidal coordination geometry. The platinum and uranium coordination planes are almost perpendicular, at an angle of 85.4(1)°.
