The discourses on women’s empowerment, leadership and development in the contemporary Pacific, and Melanesia suggest that local women in these regions are discriminated against and denied gender equality with men. The ... -
Modelling Time Dependent Transient Deformation in New Zealand
Most organisations who maintain regional terrestrial reference frames base their realisations on the global International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRS) that uses space based positioning techniques (e.g. GNSS, ITRF, ... -
Consequence of 2012 Mw 8.6 Northern Sumatra Earthquakes towards Sundaland Plate
The impact of postseismic decay has been concerned mostly with the edge of plate boundaries. But great earthquakes (larger than M8.0) can cause widespread postseismic decay in areas well beyond any recognised plate boundaries. ... -
Towards a Modernized Geodetic Datum for Nepal: Options for Developing an Accurate Terrestrial Reference Frame Following the April 25, 2015 Mw7.8 Gorkha Earthquake
Along with the damage to buildings and infrastructure, the April 25, 2015 Mw7.8 Gorkha earthquake caused significant deformation over a large area of eastern Nepal with displacements of over 2 m recorded in the vicinity ... -
Positioning in Active Deformation Zones Implications for NetworkRTK and GNSS Processing Engines
New Zealand’s actively deforming landscape results in both gradual and imperceptible deformation to instantaneous block shifts. The geophysical processes that cause the deformation include the tectonic plate motion (slow, ...
