Archaeological excavations at Big Forest Park, West Coast, New Zealand

The machinery of the Big River mine is the most complete historical assemblage of in situ machinery for quartz mining in New Zealand. Excavations were carried out to mitigate the effects of reconstruction of the winding engine house. Comprehensive and extensive drainage of the original working compound between the winding engine, bath house, engineer's workshop and the upper terminal of the aer...

Succession in the Kaimaumau gumland, Northland, New Zealand, following fire

The vegetation recovery at Kaimaumau gumland was monitored in seven permanent plots from 1988 to 1999 following a large fire in 1988 in order to determine rates and patterns of vegetation recovery. A succession profile for the key vegetation types that are currently developing is suggested. Schoenus brevifolius was the first species to colonise from rhizomes after the fire, and has remained the...

Numerical modeling of tides, currents and waves off Maharashtra coast

A two-dimensional finite element numerical model has been developed to simulate tide and wave characteristics for Maharashtra coastal region, India. The region was divided into four zones based on water depth and the Chezy’s friction coefficient values for each zone were determined. It was noticed that as the water depth decreases the values of friction coefficient increases. Results are valida...
