title: Characteristics of sub-surface sediments in southern Stella Passage, Tauranga Harbour

authors: Moon, Vicki G.

abstract: The Port of Tauranga is considering port developments that would require capital dredging of a section of the southern Stella Passage to achieve depths comparable to the northern Stella Passage. Seismic profiles, core samples, and	CPT data were	collected by the University of Waikato and OPUS for the area impacted by proposed development.

The core samples were analysed for sediment texture, including assessment	of the fines (silt + clay) content. Four main stratigraphic	units were identified from the available data. These were, in order of increasing stratigraphic depth and age: Holocene sand; Pleistocene alluvial fan; Pleistocene organic silt; and Pleistocene terrestrial and shallow marine sand. In general, the fines content increased with depth and age. Younger units thin southwards along Stella Passage, resulting in increasing fines content southwards along the channel.

title: Sharing, privacy and trust issues for photo collections

authors: Adams, Anne

subjects: Image collections

abstract: Digital libraries are quickly being adopted by the masses. Technological developments now allow community groups, clubs, and even ordinary individuals to create their own, publicly accessible collections. However, users may not be fully aware of the potential privacy implications of submitting their documents to a digital library, and may hold misconceptions of the technological support for preserving their privacy.
 We present results from 18 autoethnographic investigations and 19 observations / interviews into privacy issues that arise when people make their personal photo collections available online. The Adams' privacy model is used to discuss the findings according to information receiver, information sensitivity, and information usage. Further issues of trust and ad hoc poorly supported protection strategies are presented. Ultimately while photographic data is potentially highly sensitive, the privacy risks are often hidden and the protection mechanisms are limited.

title: Indigenizing outdoor play in New Zealand: A conversation analysis approach

authors: Bateman, Amanda

abstract: This chapter focuses on a single case analysis of one trip to a local bush reserve in New Zealand. The observations included in this chapter begin by exploring the way in which a promise to the Maori God Tane Mahuta is managed by the teachers and children at the beginning of the excursion. The promise made is part of the mundane, everyday activity engaged in by these children and teachers during their weekly visit to the bush reserve, where every child is required to recite a phrase that promises not to hurt the creatures, animals or plants of Tane Mahuta when they are playing in the forest. In the first of the video-recorded episodes, explicit reference to Tane Mahuta is initially oriented through one of the children reciting the promise, unprompted, at the beginning of the recording. The second observation reveals one of the teachers explaining to a child the rules of entering the forest: that you have to ask permission from Tane Mahuta before you enter. When a child does not want to say the promise, he is encouraged to do so collaboratively with the teacher before entering the forest. Only once the child has said the promise does he enter, demonstrating the importance of the verbal commitment and participation in the accountable action of promise-making by the participants prior to entering the forest.
