Abstract:
This thesis describes a systemic approach to the study of shell remains, using material from the site of Shag Point (J43/11), in North Otago. This approach analyses the relationship between sampling, identification, quantification, and site formation processes. An historical and methodological framework is used to assess the analysis of shell-bearing deposits in New Zealand, and provide innovative solutions to bias. Historical research outlines the common research methods in New Zealand, which are relevant to Shag Point. Methodological research outlines the range of potential research methods

Abstract:
The fundamental dosimetric quantity used to measure the level of exposure due to cellular phones is the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The compliance of a device to the exposure limit is determined by following the guidelines described in IEEE measurement standards. The compliance assessment process can be quite complicated and time consuming, due to the many different test conditions that have to be considered and the slow speed of the measurement equipment. Depending on the frequency, use configuration of the device and form factor the SAR values can vary significantly from test case to tes

Abstract:
As part of a large interdisciplinary study, particulate fluxes in the Waipaoa River sedimentary system in New Zealand have been studied from the terrestrial headlands of the catchment to the oceanic basin over timescales spanning storm events, seasons, and the Holocene. Here, we complement prior efforts by evaluating the formation and reworking of riverine deposits during episodic flood and wave events, and considering their role in accumulation patterns created over longer timescales on the Waipaoa shelf. Using a numerical hydrodynamic and sediment transport model, sediment fluxes and deposit

The thesis follows the natural geological evolution of the marine placer deposit from primary source, through alluvial and/or glacial transportation, concentration along the coastline by wave, aeolian and alluvial/sheet-wash processes and finally marine diamond placer preservation. All of these processes are reviewed as they are important in understanding o

This project aims to provide a better understanding of the deposition of Quaternary and Holocene sediments along the west coast of Southern Africa between Wreck Point at approximately 28º50.00′S and the Kamma River at approximately 29º20.00′S, based primarily on seismic stratigraphy. The high resolution airgun seismic survey performed by De Beers Marine during 1998 was interpreted based on seismic stratigraphic principles and the chronology of the seismic profiles was based on correlation to radiocarbon-dated gravity cores from offshore the Holgat River determined by Herbert (2009).

Les récentes études sur la composition des thèques ont conduit à émettre l’hypothèse que les amibes xénosomiques (constituées de particules exogènes), peuvent constituer des bio-indicateurs pertinents de la diversité particulaire de l’environnement minéral, organique et biologique dans lequel elles évoluent.L’objectif principal des recherch

Abstract:
Shell middens are a significant component of the Australian coastal archaeological record, however, they are notoriously difficult to research. Shell matrix sites are often large and structurally heterogeneous with complex formation histories. For large stratified shell matrix sites, the majority of the deposits are buried making the design of appropriate and representative sampling regimes challenging, as short of total excavation the population from which the sample was taken will never be fully understood. This study aims to address these sampling issues through the application of geophysic

Lower and Middle Devonian strata crop out on the former stable carbonate platform that existed in the Quinn Canyon Range, through the carbonate shelf edge in the Pancake Range, to the carbonate slope and outer-shelf basin in the Reveille Range. The strata of the Reveille Range record a transition from deposition on the carbonate platform in the Lower Devonian, to deposition at the carbonate platform margin, to deposition in the outer-shelf basin in the Middle Devonian.

Abstract:
Currently 60% of the global population is concentrated in the coastal zone and 75% of the coast is dominated by sandy beaches, thus, the susceptibility of these environments to anthropogenic impact as coastal erosion increases is unquestionable. One common and effective measure for minimizing beach erosion, which has global appeal, is artificial sand nourishment. However, locating a good sediment borrow area especially inland, has become very difficult. Offshore sediments are identified as a good solution. Hence, this study had the objective to do the characterization and definition of sedimen

Abstract:
At present, knowledge about tsunami event deposits in outer shelf environments with water depths > 60 m is limited, although understanding of the involved processes as tsunami induced erosion of seafloor sediments and induced backwash currents are critical for tsunami hazard assessment. Both, incoming tsunami waves and generated backwash currents can leave signatures in the offshore sedimentary record. Preservation of tsunami imprints seems more likely in offshore deposits as in onshore deposits, which are in contrary more regarded. Thus, a multidisciplinary approach was conducted to detect pr
