  • The Spatial Distribution of Pā in Tōtaranui/Queen Charlotte Sound, New Zealand
    The spatial distribution of pā in Tōtaranui/Queen Charlotte Sound, New Zealand A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Arts, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand Tristan Wadsworth i Abstract The distribution of pā sites in the central New Zealand region of Tōtaranui/Queen Charlotte Sound is investigated to determine the relationship between pā and other Māori archaeological sites, and the influence of maritime and introduced terrestrial resources. Particular aims of research are to investigate the role of visibility as a measure of defensibility in the distribution of Tōtaranui pā, and whether this distribution is influenced by the distribution of garden sites and karaka stands, two important introduced resources often considered to influence pā distribution at national levels. Additionally, evidence for gardening activity is ambiguous in Tōtaranui, for which there is a number of archaeologically recorded garden sites but a noted absence of gardening activity in the earliest historical records. Investigation into the distribution of pā is done by comparing proximity and intervisibility of pā sites to a range of Māori archaeological site types (garden sites, karaka stands, midden sites, oven sites, other pā sites, pit sites, and terrace sites). Proximity of pā to other archaeological sites is quantitatively measured by way of cost distance analysis, and intervisibility of sites measured by way of viewshed analysis within Geographical Information Systems (GIS). Cost distances and frequency of intervisibility of pā to other archaeological sites is recorded and compared against a dataset of random points. Based on the methodology used in the analysis, neither maritime nor introduced terrestrial resources had a significant influence on the distribution of Tōtaranui pā.

The Claim \ The claim (Wai 124) relates to Arapawa Island and was received on 22 February 1990. It was submitted by Neville Karira Watson Tahuaroa for himself and on behalf of the descendants of Rihari Tahuaroa. The claim concerns the Sounds Foreshore Reserve fronting Oamaru 2A3, which is an urupa, and Oamaru part 1B1, both part of the Oamaru Native Reserve on Arapawa Island. It also concerns a reserve adjoining the Oamaru Native Reserve, known as the Watering Place Reserve. The claimant states that he and the descendants of Rihati Tahuaroa are prejudicially affected by: a the Department of Conservation's failure to protect the urupa against erosion; a proposal by DOC to exchange the Watering Place Reserve with land adjacent to the reserve; the need for him to pay rental for the foreshore reserve fronting his property at part 1B1.

  • Sounds Ecological District
    NORTH MARLBOROUGH - Significant Natural Areas Project SOUNDS ECOLOGICAL DISTRICT MAP 4 - SouNdS EcologicAl diStrict OVERVIEW The Sounds Ecological District is one of four forming the Sounds-Wellington Ecological Region. It forms the largest and central district, and includes the entire Marlborough Sounds except the very outer reaches, Croisilles Harbour and western D’Urville Island. It is a wonderfully complex labyrinth of convoluted land and waterways (“drowned valleys”), with a robust but rather benign climate. The topography includes peninsulas, headlands, steep hills, strong ridges, gullies and confined flats and inlets. There are several substantial islands within each of the two main sounds, Pelorus and Queen Charlotte, and some smaller islets. The highest point is Mt Stokes (1203m), high enough to have an alpine character. The geology is complex. In the west is Permian argillite and igneous conglomerate, with some areas of ultramafic “Mineral Belt” rocks and volcanics. In the centre is Carboniferous greywacke and argillite, and in the east is Carboniferous Marlborough schist. These are arranged in belts or strips along a NE-SW axis. D’Urville Island has only been separated from the mainland since the last glacial period. The climate has prevailing west to north-west winds with fairly frequent gales, reliable rainfall, warm summers and mild winters. Soils are steepland soils formed from the parent rocks and include fragmented solifluction debris. They are moderately fertile as a rule, but in the higher rainfall areas are leached and have infertile podzols. In the ultramafic areas, the unusual concentrations of metallic minerals creates soils that inhibit plants such as broadleaved trees and pasture grasses.

    NOVEL PREDATORS AND NAÏVE PREY: HOW INTRODUCED MAMMALS SHAPE BEHAVIOURS AND POPULATIONS OF NEW ZEALAND LIZARDS JOANNE MARIE HOARE 2006 Novel predators and naïve prey: how introduced mammals shape behaviours and populations of New Zealand lizards Joanne Marie Hoare A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ecology and Biodiversity Victoria University of Wellington Te Whare W ānanga o te Ūpoko o te Ika a M āui 2006 for Olive and friends i Abstract Biotas that evolved in isolation from mammalian predators are susceptible to degradation due to recent human-mediated introductions of mammals. However, behavioural, morphological and life historical adaptations of prey to novel mammalian predators can allow prey to persist in mammal-invaded areas. Lizards in New Zealand are an ideal group for exploring the effects of invasive mammals on vertebrate prey because: (1) the ca. 80 endemic species evolved without mammals as a major influence for 80 my, (2) mammalian introductions during the past 2000 y have differentially affected lizard species, and (3) some species coexist with mammals on the mainland as well as occurring on mammal-free offshore islands. I tested three hypotheses: (1) lizard populations that have persisted on New Zealand’s mainland are no longer declining in the presence of introduced mammalian predators, (2) introduced mammals induce behavioural shifts in native lizards, and (3) lizard behavioural patterns and chemosensory predator detection abilities vary according to exposure to introduced mammals. Trends in capture rates of five sympatric native lizard populations over a 23 year (1984-2006) period demonstrate that not all lizard populations that have persisted thus far on New Zealand’s mainland have stabilised in numbers.
