  • Earthquake-Induced Ground Fissuring and Spring Formation in Foot-Slope Positions and Valley Floor of the Hillsborough Valley, Ch

The library is available here: https://www.issmge.org/publications/online-library This is an open-access database that archives thousands of papers published under the Auspices of the ISSMGE and maintained by the Innovation and Development Committee of ISSMGE. 6th International Conference on Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering 1-4 November 2015 Christchurch, New Zealand Earthquake-Induced Ground Fissuring and Spring Formation in Foot- Slope Positions and Valley Floor of the Hillsborough Valley, Christchurch, New Zealand C. S. Brownie1, M. Green2 and D. Bell3 ABSTRACT In the Hillsborough Valley of Christchurch, New Zealand, extensive loess soil fissuring and spring formation occurred following a series of local earthquakes in 2010 and 2011. Fissures were up to 800 m in length, contour-parallel and accompanied by lateral compression and spring formation in the valley floor. Soil compression likely led to the development of permeable pathways, allowing the upward migration of water resulting in springs. The spring water originates from volcanic bedrock, and has distinct rainwater contribution. The term “quasi-toppling failure” can describe the soil movement related to the fissuring, while the mechanism is a combination of the “trampoline effect”, the fault movement and bedrock fracturing, and “lateral spreading” which was exacerbated by intra-loess water coursing and tunnel gullying. Infiltration of water into the fissures has potential to cause further ground movement, and as such it is important that the all fissures are infilled to prevent water ingress.

  • From Legislative Machine to Representative Forum? Procedural Change in the New Zealand Parliament in the Twentieth Century
    From legislative machine to representative forum? Procedural change in the New Zealand parliament in the twentieth century John E Martin* This article analyses procedural developments in the New Zealand parliament in the twentieth century to assess the shifting balance between government and parliament. A previous article in this journal documented how the government began to move to centre stage by the late nineteenth century. 1 This shift was consolidated in the first half of the twentieth century. A similar transition was evident in the British House of Commons and in other parliaments as the powers of the central state were extended: ‘A traditionally obstructive [legislative] procedure ... was transformed into a procedure which facilitated constructive criticism of the financial and legislative proposals of politically responsible governments, whilst severely restricting the opportunities of private Members to legislate.’2 This change was associated with a diminishing role for backbench private members and a strengthening of political party organisation in parliament. In New Zealand this came about at the turn of the twentieth century as the decayed factional system of politics was replaced by that of parties. (Previously political leaders assembled loose groups of supporters — factions — which gave them majorities in the House of Representatives. This form of politics broke down during the depression of the 1880s.) Associated with this change there was a gradual tacit recognition that the nature of obstruction of business should change as both governing and opposition parties considered that their work in parliament was orientated more towards the business of governing (and winning elections) than to demonstrating parliamentary independence.

  • A Diachronic Study of Unparliamentary Language in the New Zealand Parliament, 1890-1950
    WITHDRAW AND APOLOGISE: A DIACHRONIC STUDY OF UNPARLIAMENTARY LANGUAGE IN THE NEW ZEALAND PARLIAMENT, 1890-1950 BY RUTH GRAHAM A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Applied Linguistics Victoria University of Wellington 2016 ii “Parliament, after all, is not a Sunday school; it is a talking-shop; a place of debate”. (Barnard, 1943) iii Abstract This study presents a diachronic analysis of the language ruled to be unparliamentary in the New Zealand Parliament from 1890 to 1950. While unparliamentary language is sometimes referred to as ‘parliamentary insults’ (Ilie, 2001), this study has a wider definition: the language used in a legislative chamber is unparliamentary when it is ruled or signalled by the Speaker as out of order or likely to cause disorder. The user is required to articulate a statement of withdrawal and apology or risk further censure. The analysis uses the Communities of Practice theoretical framework, developed by Wenger (1998) and enhanced with linguistic impoliteness, as defined by Mills (2005) in order to contextualise the use of unparliamentary language within a highly regulated institutional setting. The study identifies and categorises the lexis of unparliamentary language, including a focus on examples that use New Zealand English or te reo Māori. Approximately 2600 examples of unparliamentary language, along with bibliographic, lexical, descriptive and contextual information, were entered into a custom designed relational database. The examples were categorised into three: ‘core concepts’, ‘personal reflections’ and the ‘political environment’, with a number of sub-categories. This revealed a previously unknown category of ‘situation dependent’ unparliamentary language and a creative use of ‘animal reflections’.

Villeneuve2 and I. Walsh2 ABSTRACT At 12.51 pm (NZST) on 22 February 2011 a shallow, magnitude MW 6.2 earthquake with an epicentre located just south of Christchurch, New Zealand, caused widespread devastation including building collapse, liquefaction and landslides. Throughout the Port Hills of Banks Peninsula on the southern fringes of Christchurch landslide and ground damage caused by the earthquake included rock-fall (both cliff collapse and boulder roll), incipient loess landslides, and retaining wall and fill failures. Four deaths from rock-fall occurred during the mainshock and one during an aftershock later in the afternoon of the 22nd. Hundreds of houses were damaged by rock-falls and landslide-induced ground cracking. Four distinct landslide or ground failure types have been recognised. Firstly, rocks fell from lava outcrops on the Port Hills and rolled and bounced over hundreds of metres damaging houses located on lower slopes and on valley floors. Secondly, over-steepened present-day and former sea-cliffs collapsed catastrophically. Houses were damaged by tension cracks on the slopes above the cliff faces and by debris inundation at the toe of the slopes.

  • Socio-Economic Mapping of Sub-Catchment Communities in the Heathcote Catchment, Christchurch
    Socio -economic mapping of sub-catchment communities in the Heathcote catchment, Christchurch Nicholas Ensor WCFM Report 2019-006 i REPORT: WCFM Report 2019-006 TITLE: Socio-economic mapping of sub-catchment communities in the Heathcote catchment, Christchurch PREPARED FOR: Christchurch City Council (CCC) PREPARED BY: Nicholas Ensor – BSc REVIEWED BY: Ed Challies, Crile Doscher, Clive Appleton AFFILIATION: Waterways Centre for Freshwater Management University of Canterbury & Lincoln University Private Bag 4800 Christchurch New Zealand DATE: November 2018 – February 2019 ii Executive Summary This report provides an analysis and evaluation of the spatial distribution of a range of socio- economic and demographic indicators aggregated within the sub-catchments of the Ōpāwaho/Heathcote river basin for the Christchurch City Council. The analysis is intended to assist in a targeted approach around local and community waterway health education and engagement. ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Online council services were utilised to process and aggregate publicly available census, council and NGO data employing standard geoprocessing tools. It was discovered that areas of low deprivation overlap with Port Hills sub-catchments, which tend to be wealthier and less populated, and the distribution seemed to have a stronger correlation with elevation within the catchment than with the basin’s hydrological patterns. Areas of high deprivation were mainly distributed throughout southern and eastern sub- catchments of low elevation. These inferences are also supported by income level and tertiary qualification data by sub-catchment. In carrying out this project, some challenges were encountered around limited availability of high-quality data at the level of detail required for the analysis. Public data sites such as canterburymaps.govt.nz and data.linz.govt.nz, while hosting hundreds of sets of high-quality data, did not have data at the level of local sub-catchments that were needed to produce accurate, clean outputs.
