MiraCalc: the Miranda Calculator, the Unix version
(1994-04)Those of you who already have some experience of programming, or experience of simply using a computer, will know that computers can be very unforgiving. They are fussy, and unless you get things exactly right they will ... -
The MIREX Grand Challenge: A Framework of Holistic User-Experience Evaluation in Music Information Retrieval
(Wiley, 2017)Music Information Retrieval (MIR) evaluation has traditionally focused on system‐centered approaches where components of MIR systems are evaluated against predefined data sets and golden answers (i.e., ground truth). There ... -
Mirrors, windows and sliding glass doors – “This is our house”
(2017-07-29)Mini-keynote Oral presentation about a vignette from my doctoral study at Children in the Early Years: Pedagogy, Policy and Community Connectedness -
Misconceptions arising from the Infinite Solenoid Magnetic Field Formula
(American Association of Physics Teachers, 2021)Many high school and first-year university courses include discussion of the magnetic effect of currents. Frequently discussed textbook examples include long, straight wires, circular current loops, and solenoids, partly ... -
Missing in translation: Maori language and oral tradition in scientific analyses of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK)
(Royal Society of New Zealand, 2009)Recent conceptual shifts in ecology towards integration of humans into ecosystems requires all possible sources of ecological knowledge available (Berkes 2004, 2009 this issue). Māori traditional ecological knowledge of ... -
Missing men and unacknowledged women: Explaining gender disparities in New Zealand’s prime adult age groups 1986 – 2006
(Population Association of New Zealand, 2010)Questions concerning the widening disparity in numbers of males and females in the prime working age groups in New Zealand’s population have attracted attention from researchers and the media in recent years. This paper ... -
Mitigating flood risks: analysis of different types and quantity of green infrastructure
(2021)Climate change is likely to intensify the effects of extreme weather events and increase their impacts on urban areas. A major emerging challenge for urban areas is how to address these uncertainties without neglecting the ... -
Mitochondrial DNA (COI) analyses reveal that amphipod diversity is associated with environmental heterogeneity in deep-sea habitats
(Wiley, 2012)The relationship between species diversity and environmental parameters is poorly understood for the mobile macrofauna of deep-sea habitats due to under-sampling and subsequent lack of accurate taxonomic information. To ... -
Mitochondrial DNA indicates different North American east coast origins for New Zealand and German invasions of Skistodiaptomus pallidus (Copepoda: Calanoida)
(Regional Euro-Asian Biological Invasions Centre - REABIC, 2017)The freshwater calanoid copepod Skistodiaptomus pallidus (Herrick, 1879), native to the Mississippi basin of North America, has recently established non-indigenous populations in New Zealand, Germany and Mexico. We used ... -
Mixed basis matrix elements for the subgroup reductions of SO(2,1)
(1973-05)By using the irreducible decomposition on the two-dimensional light cone, the mixed basis matrix elements for the three subgroup reductions of SO(2,1) are calculated. These matrix elements are calculated for the principal ... -
A mixed digital / physical snapshot of early internet / web usage in New Zealand
(ACM, 2009)We are in the early stages of developing a unique physical and digital record of New Zealand's early experience of the Internet. -
Mixed glauconitic-carbonate-siliciclastic surficial sediments on the north Kaipara continental margin, northwestern North Island, New Zealand
(Taylor & Francis, 2010)A mosaic of siliciclastic and mixed carbonate-siliciclastic sediments and authigenic minerals occurs at shelf and slope depths (30-1015 m water depth) on the open, wave-dominated north Kaipara continental margin (NKCM) off ... -
Mixed pixel return separation for a full-field ranger
(2008)Full-field amplitude modulated continuous wave range imagers commonly suffer from the mixed pixel problem. This problem is caused by the integration of light from multiple sources by a single pixel, particularly around the ... -
Mixed signal approach for rapid prototyping of a compact smart pebble for sediment transport monitoring in river beds
(IEEE, 2005)Low-cost accelerometers and gyro ICs were used to develop a smart sediment particle to study the sediment transport in rivers. With strap-down MEMS, battery, a processing subsystem and memory, this self contained unit ... -
MLearning in a New Zealand secondary school: A case study
(Common Ground, 2011)Four classroom teachers (geography, food technology, ESOL, Japanese) experimented with a range of mobile devices (digital cameras, proprietary hardware/software, phones and mp3 players) during 2010. In conjunction both ... -
Mo(ve)ments in the academic supervision relationship: Ethics in practice
(Routledge, 2013)The context of the article is a supervisory relationship between an academic supervisor and a student-researcher and an ethic of risk within the research and supervision. Focus: The challenges for supervisor and student, ... -
Moa's Ark or volant ghosts of Gondwana? Insights from nineteen years of ancient DNA research on the extinct moa (Aves: Dinornithiformes) of New Zealand
(Elsevier, 2012-01)The moa (Aves: Dinornithiformes) of New Zealand represent one of the extinct iconic taxa that define the field of ancient DNA (aDNA), and after almost two decades of genetic scrutiny of bones, feathers, coprolites, mummified ... -
