• Iwasawa theory over solvable three-dimensional p-adic Lie extensions 

  Qin, Chao (The University of Waikato, 2018)

  Iwasawa theory is a powerful tool which describes the mysterious relationship between arithmetic objects (motives) and the special values of L-functions. A precise form of this relationship is neatly encoded in the so-called ...

  

• Sheet extrusion and plasticisation of Novatein thermoplastic protein 

  Uitto, Jussi Matias (The University of Waikato, 2018)

  The purpose of this study was to develop a relationship between protein structure, rheological properties and plasticization of Novatein. Novatein is a biomass-based thermoplastic in which the main constituent is blood ...

  

• Thermophilic Methanotrophy in the Taupō Volcanic Zone 

  Houghton, Karen Margaret (The University of Waikato, 2018)

  Methanotrophs are widely distributed in the environment and play an important role in the global methane cycle by oxidising the majority of methane produced each year. Geological sources of methane contribute substantial ...

  Ranmadugala, Dinali Niluka Achala (The University of Waikato, 2018)

  Vitamin K, an anti-haemorrhagic factor discovered by the Danish nutritional biochemist Henrik Carl Peter Dam in 1929, is capable of correcting dietary-induced bleeding disorders in chickens. It is essential for blood ...

  

• Ecological effects of turbidity variations in and around dredging areas in the Port of Tauranga 

  Coppede Cussioli, Mariana (The University of Waikato, 2018)

  Turbidity is the scattering of light in water bodies and is an important measurement for assessing water quality in coastal systems. Suspended particles in the water column can greatly impact on light penetration and ...
