Duckling Survival of Mallards in Southland, New Zealand
The southern portion of New Zealand’s South Island is a productive area for mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) despite a notable lack of permanent or semi-permanent wetlands. Most broods are reared in pastures that may or may not be flooded with ephemeral water. In recent years, there has been an increased conversion from continuous to sporadic grazing that has resulted in a functional change in the...
متن کاملFeatural representations of the New Zealand English short front vowels
The realisation of the short front vowels in NZE differs from British or American English (RP/AE) and is well documented (cf. Bauer, 1986). However, two crucial questions arise: (1) Do the acoustically different vowel realisations also involve different underlying representations as compared to RP/AE? (2) What is the precise nature of these representations? Previous investigations either sugges...
متن کاملFormation mechanisms of illite, chlorite and mixed-layer illite-chlorite in Triassic volcanogenic sediments from the Southland Syncline, New Zealand
Clay minerals from the three principal kinds of zeolitic sediments from the type area for zeolite facies alteration, the Triassic Murihiku Supergroup, Southland, New Zealand, have been studied by TEM. Bentonitic tuff consists largely of smectite and heulandite with minor illite; they occur as replacements of glass shards and are inferred to be direct alteration products of tuff alteration. Both...
متن کاملDecadal Variability in ENSO Predictability and Prediction
A simple coupled model is used to examine decadal variations in El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) prediction skill and predictability. Without any external forcing, the coupled model produces regular ENSO-like variability with a 5-yr period. Superimposed on the 5-yr oscillation is a relatively weak decadal amplitude modulation with a 20-yr period. External uncoupled atmospheric ‘‘weather nois...
متن کاملENSO and variability of the Antarctic Peninsula pelagic marine ecosystem
The West Antarctic Peninsula region is an important source of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) in the Southern Ocean. From 1980–2004 abundance and concentration of phytoplankton and zooplankton, krill reproductive and recruitment success and seasonal sea ice extent here were significantly correlated with the atmospheric Southern Oscillation Index and exhibited threeto five-year frequencies c...
