Impacts of surface fault rupture on residential structures during the 2016 Mw 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake, New Zealand
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2018)Areas that experience permanent ground deformation in earthquakes (e.g., surface fault rupture, slope failure, and/or liquefaction) typically sustain greater damage and loss compared to areas that experience strong ground ... -
Building strong relationships between conservation genetics and primary industry leads to mutually beneficial genomic advances.
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2016)Several reviews in the past decade have heralded the benefits of embracing high-throughput sequencing technologies to inform conservation policy and the management of threatened species, but few have offered practical ... -
Reference genomes from distantly related species can be used for discovery of single nucleotide polymorphisms to inform conservation management
(MDPI AG, 2019)© 2018 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Threatened species recovery programmes benefit from incorporating genomic data into conservation management strategies to enhance species recovery. However, a lack ... -
Drug-, dose- and sex-dependent effects of chronic fluoxetine, reboxetine and venlafaxine on open-field behavior and spatial memory in rats
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2015)© 2014 Elsevier B.V. In an effort to address the need to include both sexes in studies of effects of the SSRI fluoxetine, the NRI reboxetine and the SNRI venlafaxine on anxiety-related behavior and memory along with the ... -
Minimal model of calcium dynamics in two heterogeneous coupled cells
(Elsevier BV, 2019)© 2018 Elsevier B.V. Intercellular calcium (Ca2+) waves are an important signalling mechanism in a wide variety of cells within the body, crucial for cellular coordination and control. In order to investigate calcium ... -
Towards more realistic values of elastic moduli for volcano modelling
(Elsevier BV, 2019)The accuracy of elastic analytical solutions and numerical models, widely used in volcanology to interpret surface ground deformation, depends heavily on the Young’s modulus chosen to represent the medium. The paucity ... -
Comparative field study of shallow rhyolite intrusions in Iceland: emplacement mechanisms and impact on country rocks
(Elsevier BV, 2019)Shallow silicic intrusions are known to exist in many active volcanoes and can fuel both eruptions and hydrothermal fields. However, our knowledge of magma intrusions remains far from complete, and processes occurring ... -
Phreatic eruption dynamics derived from deposit analysis: a case study from a small, phreatic eruption from Whakāri/White Island, New Zealand
(Springer Nature, 2019)© 2019, The Author(s). On 27 April 2016, White Island erupted in a multi-pulse, phreatic event that lasted for ~ 40 min. Six, variably sized pulses generated three ballistic ejections and at least one pyroclastic surge out ... -

Design of two series of 1:1 cocrystals involving 4-amino-5-chloro-2,6-dimethylpyrimidine and carboxylic acids
(International Union of Crystallography (IUCr), 2018)© 2018 International Union of Crystallography. Two series of a total of ten cocrystals involving 4-amino-5-chloro-2,6-dimethyl-pyrimidine with various carboxylic acids have been prepared and characterized by single-crystal ... -
Living in groups: spatial-moment dynamics with neighbour-biased movements
(Elsevier BV, 2020)Herd formation in animal populations, for example to escape a predator or coordinate feeding, is a widespread phenomenon. Understanding which interactions between individual animals are important for generating such emergent ... -
Balanced harvest: concept, policies, evidence, and management implications
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019)© 2019, The Author(s). Balanced harvest has been proposed to reduce fishing impact on ecosystems while simultaneously maintaining or even increasing fishery yield. The concept has attracted broad interest, but also received ... -
Communities and Attachment Networks Associated with Primary, Secondary and Alternative Foundation Species; A Case Study of Stressed and Disturbed Stands of Southern Bull Kelp
(MDPI AG, 2019)Southern bull kelps (Durvillaea spp., Fucales) are ‘primary’ foundation species that control community structures and ecosystem functions on temperate wave-exposed rocky reefs. However, these large foundation species are ... -
A reflected feature space for CART
(Wiley, 2019)This paper presents an algorithm for learning oblique decision trees, called HHCART(G). Our decision tree combines learning concepts from two classification trees, HHCART and Geometric Decision Tree (GDT). HHCART(G) is ... -
Inter-model comparison of global hydroxyl radical (OH) distributions and their impact on atmospheric methane over the 2000-2016 period
(Copernicus GmbH, 2019)Abstract. The modeling study presented here aims to estimate how uncertainties in global hydroxyl radical (OH) distributions, variability, and trends may contribute to resolving discrepancies between simulated and observed ... -
Tri-modal Speech: Audio-visual-tactile Integration in Speech Perception
(2019)Speech perception is a multi-sensory experience. Visual information enhances [Sumby and Pollack (1954). J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 25, 212–215] and interferes [McGurk and MacDonald (1976). Nature 264, 746–748] with speech perception. ... -
Balanced harvesting could reduce fisheries-induced evolution
(Wiley, 2018)© 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd Current fisheries management pays little attention to fisheries-induced evolution. Methods of exploitation that have benefits in the short term while ameliorating selection in the longer term ... -
Visual-Tactile Speech Perception and the Autism Quotient
(Frontiers Media SA, 2019)Multisensory information is integrated asymmetrically in speech perception: An audio signal can follow video by 240ms, but can precede video by only 60ms, without disrupting the sense of synchronicity (Munhall et al., ... -
Visual-tactile integration in speech perception : evidence for modality neutral speech primitives.
(Acoustical Society of America (ASA), 2016)© 2016 Acoustical Society of America. Audio-visual [McGurk and MacDonald (1976). Nature 264, 746-748] and audio-tactile [Gick and Derrick (2009). Nature 462(7272), 502-504] speech stimuli enhance speech perception over ...
