Tectonics, sedimentation and magmatism of the Canterbury Basin, New Zealand.
(University of Canterbury, 2019)This PhD investigates the tectonics, sedimentation and magmatism of the Canterbury Basin. Unlike the emergent part of Zealandia continent, the offshore Canterbury Basin has not been deformed by Cenozoic plate boundary ... -
Induction of the innate immune response by physical trauma and infection : quantification through analysis of biochemical markers.
(University of Canterbury, 2019)Physical trauma and infection have been shown to be significant stimuli for up-regulation of the human innate immune response, which leads to the production of two commonly used biomarkers; 7,8-dihydroneopterin and ... -
The antecedents of out-of-home care among methadone-exposed children.

Tectonic geomorphology and paleoseismology of The Humps Fault Zone, North Culverden Basin.
(University of Canterbury, 2019)The November 2016 MW 7.8 Kaikōura Earthquake initiated beneath the North Culverden basin on The Humps fault and propagated north-eastwards, rupturing at least 17 faults along a cumulative length of ~180 km. The geomorphic ... -
A genomics approach to the conservation of kōwaro (Canterbury mudfish, Neochanna burrowsius).
(University of Canterbury, 2019)Often the most appropriate sampling strategies and genomic approaches to informing the conservation management of threatened taonga species in Aotearoa New Zealand in a culturally responsive manner is unclear. Here I ... -
Macroecology of New Zealand Ephemeroptera.
(University of Canterbury, 2019)The aim of this thesis is to extend our knowledge of the New Zealand Ephemeroptera (mayflies) with particular reference to the latitudinal and altitudinal distribution of species and community assemblages. The study was ... -
Dissecting the simulation: evaluating climate model cloud representation through a machine learning framework.
(University of Canterbury, 2019)Climate models are an essential tool for understanding future climate and preparing for the challenges of climate change. While these models are far from perfect, they are constantly being evaluated and updated. To ensure ... -
Investigating the impact of relocation and homesickness on attention and safety outcomes of high-risk workers.
(University of Canterbury, 2019)Relocating for work is becoming increasingly common, and homesickness often arises as a consequence of relocation. When those relocating are working in high-risk environments, it becomes especially important to investigate ... -
