title: Mangroves and seagrass: Indicators of estuarine health?

authors: de Lange, Willem P.

abstract: Mangrove and seagrass occupy different environments within an estuary, and both potentially respond to environmental stressors such as, nutrient loading, sedimentation, turbidity and climate change. Therefore, they could be useful indicators of the health of the estuary. However, there are common misunderstandings about the function of flowering plants such as mangrove and seagrass in the marine environment that can lead to contradictory and possibly inappropriate actions by the public. For example, pressure to protect mangroves and remove seagrass. This talk will discuss the interactions between physical processes within estuaries and mangrove and seagrass, consider the changes that have occurred in the distribution of these plants over the recent past, and suggest possible causes for these changes.

subjects: human resource management

abstract: Welcome to the first of our set of Special Editions of the New Zealand Journal of Human Resource Management (NZJHRM). The idea behind the current set of Special Issue’s was trying to promote emerging research and researchers from New Zealand and Australasia undertaking research of interest to Human Resource Management professionals, academics, and researchers. A number of these papers were presented at the Australian and New Zealand Academy of Management (ANZAM) Conference in Auckland 2008 and as such, I would like to acknowledge the initial work of reviewers from the conference through the various HRM-related streams. The new focus of the NZJHRM has been broadened to encompass the wider settings of other Australasian countries because often the lessons these studies provide are as applicable to New Zealand as they are to their specific local setting. The present Special Issue covers a wide variety of cultural settings including Australia, Malaysian, and India. Given the growth of globalization and the cultural diversity found in New Zealand, I believe the lessons found here are likely to be at least somewhat transferable to our New Zealand setting and should provide greater understanding of commonalities in HRM within our Australasian region.

title: “Seeing” Kāpō Māori: Making visible the experiences of Kāpō Māori during and after COVID-19

authors: Masters-Awatere, Bridgette

abstract: A scoping project focused on the intersection of Māori and the framing of vision impairments (disability) within the context of a pandemic response (in this instance COVID-19). Specifically, we were interested in the experiences of kāpō Māori during and post COVID-19 in order to centre the cultural and health needs of kāpō Māori in a culturally responsive manner. We highlight the aspirations that kāpō Māori have for themselves and their whānau, and to identify the facilitators and barriers that kāpō Māori and their whānau face in achieving these
