title: Uplift in the Fiordland region, New Zealand: Implications for incipient subduction

authors: House, Martha A.

subjects: Fiordland

abstract: Low-temperature thermochronometry reveals regional Late Cenozoic denudation in Fiordland, New Zealand, consistent with geodynamic models showing uplift of the overriding plate during incipient subduction. The data show a northward progression of exhumation in response to northward migration of the initiation of subduction. The locus of most recent uplift coincides with a large positive Bouguer gravity anomaly within Fiordland. Thermochronometrically deduced crustal thinning, anomalous gravity, and estimates of surface uplift are all consistent with ~2 kilometers of dynamic support. This amount of dynamic support is in accord with geodynamic predictions, suggesting that we have dated the initiation of subduction adjacent to Fiordland.

title: Biostratigraphy, Sr isotope chronology and chronostratigraphy of the Late Eocene – earliest Miocene Te Kuiti Group, Waikato – King Country Basin, New Zealand

authors: Kamp, Peter J.J.

abstract: This report reviews and synthesises the biostratigraphy of the Te Kuiti Group based on existing sample data archived in the Fossil Record Electronic Database (FRED). Based on these faunal and floral data, New Zealand biostratigraphic stages for the Late Eocene to Early Miocene are assigned to the formations and members within the group. Analytical strontium (Sr) data and resulting numerical ages are reported here for 26 new macrofossil samples from the Te Kuiti Group, but they do not improve the accuracy of the biostratigraphy and the age information that can be derived from it. The identification of unconformity-bound sequences, the boundaries of which align with the formation contacts within the group, provide an important set of time planes within the group. The integration of the biostratigraphy and sequence stratigraphy produces a robust chronostratigraphy for the Te Kuiti Group.

title: He pūrongo whakahokinga kōrero a te akomanga rūmaki o Te Tohu Paetahi

authors: Nock, Sophie

subjects: Reo Māori

abstract: Ko te whāinga matua o tēnei rangahau he whakakaokao, he wetewete āno hoki i ngā whakahokinga kōrero a te hunga uiui i kake atu ai ki runga i te waka o Te Tohu Paetahi i te tau 2008, i raro i te kōawa o Rehutai, i raro anō hoki i te maru o Te Whare Wānanga o Waikato. Ka aro atu ki ngā urupare a te hunga tekau mā ono mō te kaupapa nei o Te Tohu Paetahi, ka mutu, ka matapakihia ngā kōrero me ngā whakaaro o taua hunga kia āta kitea ai, āe rānei e tika ana te whakahaere, te mahi whakaako i te reo, te tautoko mai hoki a ngā kaiwhakaako me te kura. I te mutunga iho tautoko katoa te hunga uiui ki aua mea katoa.
