¹⁴C dating of modern marine and estuarine shellfish
(1998)We measured the ¹⁴C content of 36 living marine molluscs from Tairua Harbour and the rocky coast on the Coromandel Peninsula of New Zealand. We identified species suitable for radiocarbon dating and show that the open ... -
¹⁴C marine reservoir variability in herbivores and deposit-feeding gastropods from an open coastline, Papua New Guinea
(University of Arizona, 2012)Herbivorous and deposit-feeding gastropods are a major component of archaeological shell middens worldwide. They provide a wealth of information about subsistence, economy, environment, and climate, but are generally ... -
Cablegate and the continuing U.S. penetration of Brazil (Cablegate e a Penetração continuada dos EEUU do Brasil)
(Universidade Federal do Ceará, 2015)Jan Black outlined the US penetration of Brazilian politics in the 1960s and 1970s, including the linkages with military and business elites, revealing their compromise on national sovereignty. Based on cables released by ... -
Cache Hierarchy Inspired Compression: a Novel Architecture for Data Streams
(2006)We present an architecture for data streams based on structures typically found in web cache hierarchies. The main idea is to build a meta level analyser from a number of levels constructed over time from a data stream. ... -
Cadastral reform of indigenous land information and environmental sustainability in New Zealand
(Bethesda, MD : The Congress, 1990-c2001, 1997)New Zealand’s cadastral system has come under scrutiny in recent years, A sharp rise in the number of land claims by the country’s indigenous Maori, accompanied by historic environmental legislation, have prompted milk for ... -
Cadmium accumulation in agricultural soils
(The University of Waikato, 2017)Cadmium (Cd) has accumulated in New Zealand (NZ) soils as a result of phosphate fertiliser application. Cadmium is a biotoxic heavy metal and can be adsorbed by soil and enter the human food chain. Three objectives were ... -
Cadmium accumulation in three contrasting New Zealand soils with the same phosphate fertilizer history
(Elsevier, 2016)Cadmium (Cd) concentration in New Zealand (NZ) agricultural soils has increased due to phosphate fertilizer application, but it is not clear whether soils with different properties accumulate Cd at similar rates for given ... -
Cadmium mobilisation by dissolved organic matter in contaminated soils amended with compost and peat
(2019)Some organic matter (OM) soil amendments derived from biowaste have been shown to reduce plant uptake of Cd, which presents them as an attractive option for mitigating potential health risks on some contaminated soils. ... -
Caffeine Modifies the Immune and Anti-inflammatory Responses to Short Incremental Cycling Exercise Until Exhaustion in Humans: A Pilot Study
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2023-03-07)Exercise has well-documented effects on immune function with both positive and negative sequelae dependent on intensity, volume, and duration. The immunosuppressive effects of exercise are mediated, in part, by the complex ... -
Calcium carbonate alters the functional response of coastal sediments to eutrophication-induced acidification
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019)Coastal ocean acidification research is dominated by laboratory-based studies that cannot necessarily predict real-world ecosystem response given its complexity. We enriched coastal sediments with increasing quantities of ... -
Calcium dependent plasticity applied to repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation with a neural field model
(Springer, 2016)The calcium dependent plasticity (CaDP) approach to the modeling of synaptic weight change is applied using a neural field approach to realistic repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) protocols. A spatially-symmetric ... -
Calcium phosphate precipitation from whey permeate
(The University of Waikato, 2001)Currently the New Zealand Dairy Industry manufactures a very successful milk calcium product known as ALAMINTM by the precipitation of calcium phosphates (CaP) from various heated whey permeate streams. The main scientific ... -
Calcium-mediated thermostability in the subtilisin superfamily: the crystal structure of Bacillus Ak.1 protease at 1.8 å resolution
(Elsevier, 1999)Proteins of the subtilisin superfamily (subtilases) are widely distributed through many living species, where they perform a variety of processing functions. They are also used extensively in industry. In many of these ... -
Calculated spectroscopy and atmospheric photodissociation of phosphoric acid
(American Chemical Society, 2010)Detection of phosphine (PH₃) gas in the upper troposphere suggests that the biogeochemical P cycle also includes an atmospheric component that consists of volatile phosphorus-containing molecules. A reasonable end product ... -
Calculating for creativity: Maths joins the circus
(University of Waikato, 2020)Following recent increases in the diversity of students, technologies, pedagogies and environments, New Zealand classrooms are sites of growing complexity. Tasked with covering a broad range of disciplines within each ... -
Calculating non-controlling interest in the presence of goodwill impairment
(Emerald, 2010)Purpose – The primary aim of this paper is to illustrate how goodwill impairment loss should be accounted for when measuring non-controlling interest in subsidiaries. Design/methodology/approach – The paper uses two ... -
Calculating the surface melt rate of Antarctic glaciers using satellite-derived temperatures and stream flows
(Springer Nature, 2020)Melt rate models are fundamental for understanding the impacts of climate change on glaciers and the subsequent effects on habitats and sea level rise. Ice melt models have mostly been derived from energy balance or air ... -
A calculator for supporting derivation in constructive type-theory: PICTCalc
(1994-06)PICTCalc is an interactive program written in LPA Prolog which has encoded within it the rules of Martin-Löf's constructive type theory (CTT), a formal system based on the constructive or intuitionistic mathematics of ... -
Caldalkalibacillus thermarum PhoH2: Solving the solubility puzzle
(University of Waikato, 2017)Previous attempts to determine the structure of the protein PhoH2 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium smegmatis and Thermobispora bispora have been unsuccessful producing diffraction data to low resolution. The ... -
Caldolase, a chelator-insensitive extracellular serine proteinase from a Thermus spp.
(1989)An extracellular alkaline serine proteinase from Thermus strain ToK3 was isolated and purified to homogeneity by (NH4)2SO4 precipitation followed by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and QAE-Sephadex, affinity ...
