title: Editorial: Coping with stress: A challenge for theory, research and practice

authors: O’Driscoll, Michael P.

abstract: One of the major issues in research on human stress is how people deal with or manage the stressors which they confront in their daily lives, and how well they deal with these stressors. This is normally referred to as ‘coping’, which has been a topic of significant interest to stress researchers for many years. Various articles published in Stress and Health have examined coping behaviours, in respect of many types of stressful situation, including physical illness, interpersonal relations at home, work stressors and traumatic events such as earthquakes and floods. These papers have illustrated the range of coping strategies which humans engage in.

title: Anisotropic viscous dissipation in transient reconnecting plasmas

authors: Craig, Ian J.D.

subjects: magnetohydrodynamics (MHD)

abstract: Aims. We examine the global energy losses associated with reconnecting coronal plasmas.
Methods. Using planar magnetic reconnection simulations we compute resistive and bulk viscous losses in transient coronal plasmas. Resistive scalings are computed for the case of incompressible reconnection powered by large scale vortical flows. These results are contrasted with an example of magnetic merging driven by the coalescence instability.
Results. We demonstrate that the large scale advective flows, required to sustain resistive current sheets, may be associated with viscous losses approaching flare-like rates of 10²⁹ erg s⁻¹ . More generally, bulk viscous dissipation appears likely to dominate resistive dissipation for a wide variety of magnetic merging models. We emphasize that these results have potentially important implications for understanding the flare energy budget.

title: Māori, census 2018 and data sovereignty

authors: Kukutai, Tahu

abstract: This webinar explores the issues with the 2018 Census data collection and examines what the implications could be for communities and funding.  See below to read some relevant articles prior to the webinar.

Our presenters also discuss iwi data sovereignty and data bias and the reasons why we should all pay more attention to the quality of the data we provide, use and collect.
