Gully erosion and sediment load: Waipaoa, Waiapu and Uawa rivers, eastern North Island, New Zealand MICHAEL MARDEN1, HARLEY BETTS2, GREGORY ARNOLD2 & RANDOLPH HAMBLING3 1 Landcare Research, PO Box 445, Gisborne 4040, New Zealand [email protected] 2 Landcare Research, Private Bag 11-052, Palmerston North 4442, New Zealand 3 Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, PO Box 2122, Gisborne 4040, New Zealand Abstract The onset of gully erosion following deforestation was mapped for the three largest and heaviest sediment-laden rivers within the East Coast Region, North Island, New Zealand. Gullies were then re- mapped after a ~40-year reforestation period (~1957–1997) and sediment production from gullies was calculated from these data bases using a degradation rate based on DEMs of gullies at differing stages of development in each of two different geologic/tectonic terrains. At the end of the measurement period the total composite gully area for the Waipaoa, Waiapu and Uawa catchments was 5%, 33% and 39% greater than before reforestation, and for the study period, gullies in both terrains collectively contributed the equivalent of 43%, 49% and 54% of the average annual suspended sediment yield from just 0.8%, 2.4% and 1.7% of hill country areas in these respective river systems. A potentially significant reduction in sediment production and yield at catchment-scale could be achieved through a more targeted approach to reforesta- tion, particularly of gullies in the most highly erodible and unstable pastoral hill country areas of Waiapu catchment.

  • Raising Anxiety to Construct the Nation: Heartland – a Case Study
    1 Raising Anxiety to Construct the Nation: Heartland – A Case Study Philippa K Smith Centre for Communication Research AUT University Abstract Television is recognised as one of the best mediums to effectively access a great number of people within a nation and unite them by communicating stories which help them understand and feel they belong to a country. Shared meanings of nationhood are constructed in narrative form (Barker, 1999) and it is television's use of images that adds character and places it in a superior position to radio and print in eliciting a direct response from the audience (Corner, 1995). This paper uses critical discourse analysis to examine the narrative structure of an episode of the New Zealand television series Heartland, titled “East Coast – Towards the Light” to investigate the way it constructs a national identity for New Zealanders. It is argued that the programme uses a narrative structure similar to that described by French structuralist Tzevetan Todorov (1971) of equilibrium-disequilibrium-equilibrium whereby anxieties are raised within the audience psyche and then resolved in order to convey a positive message for New Zealanders - that in spite of differences whether ethnic, cultural or socio-economic - they can all be part of a united nation. Seeking a National Identity The television programme Heartland first broadcast in 1992 enabled other New Zealanders to visit and experience places they may have never been to before and see the other kinds of people who shared their country’s citizenship. It was a documentary series hosted by a popular New Zealand celebrity Gary McCormick who, in each episode, travelled to a different place in New Zealand, visiting mostly rural locations and connecting with the locals who lived there to show other New Zealanders the life that existed beyond the suburbs.
