title: Process sedimentology of the Waikato River mouth, Port Waikato, New Zealand: The depositional record of a mixed-energy river mouth

authors: Podrumac, Anya

subjects: process sedimentology

abstract: Interacting fluvial and marine processes at the Waikato River mouth control sedimentation patterns at the sand spit. These interacting processes cause tidal asymmetry between the ebb and flood tide, and produce multidirectional currents, orientated east, west, north, north-west, and south. Depositional processes at the Waikato River mouth are recorded using oceanographic instrumentation, and are linked to their corresponding sedimentary deposits. Sedimentary bedforms on the sand spit include wave- and combined-flow ripples and dunes, and planar bedding, produced from interacting fluvial and wave currents. Despite tides directly controlling sediment deposition, tides manifest as rising and falling water levels, affecting current magnitude and velocity, but are not directly indicated in terms of “tidal” sedimentary structures. Preservation potential of bedforms are low, with the sedimentary recorded dominated by structureless sand, from rarely occurring low flow velocity periods in the early- to mid-ebb tide. The Waikato River mouth is classified as wave-dominated, fluvially influenced and tide affected (Wft).

title: PUCM Practice Development Programme (PDP): February 2005

authors: PUCM: Planning Under Co-operative Mandates

subjects: New Zealand

abstract: The purpose of this report is to identify a Practice Development Programme (PDP) for the presentation of relevant innovative practices and tools arising out of the first two Phases of PUCM (Planning Under Co-operative Mandates). During Phase 3 of the research (2004-2006) the PDP will be extended as new findings come to hand.

title: Claiming spaces: Prioritising Maaori worldview

authors: Penehira, Mera

subjects: Maori

abstract: Ohomairangi Trust was established as a provider of early intervention services in February 2002. It is funded and accredited by the Ministry of Education, and is the first Kaupapa Maaori based early intervention service to be accredited by the Ministry of Education. Essentially Ohomairangi was developed because of a need in the community for a service that could focus on developing and providing early intervention in a uniquely Maaori way, without the constraints of a crown agency. The Ohomairangi early intervention team has a commitment to supporting both the positive developments for Maaori within the Ministry of Education, and the continued independent research and development of Kaupapa Maaori services. The primary purpose of Ohomairangi is to develop and provide a Kaupapa Maaori based early intervention service across Taamaki Makaurau, which meets recommended practice guidelines. This evolves from a starting point of Kaupapa Maaori theory.
