  • Local Reality and the Climate Change Adaptation Dilema
    Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Local reality and the climate change adaptation dilemma: Beyond technical fixes and ‘business as usual’ Dissertation presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Resource and Environmental Planning at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand. Paul Philipp Schneider 2014 I dedicate this dissertation to my daughter Lucia. ii And God blessed them, and God said unto them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth”. —Genesis 1:28 New Zealand begins with the sea and ends with the sea. Understand this and you begin to comprehend New Zealand and the New Zealander. The thundering surf is our frontier. And our only frontier guards, gulls and migratory birds. With justice, then, the Polynesian voyagers called the land Tiritiri o te Moana – the gift of the sea. —Brian Brake and Maurice Shadbolt, New Zealand: Gift of the Sea iii ABSTRACT Climatic changes are being recorded and experienced and coastal communities are already adversely affected with impacts projected to intensify many times over in coming decades. Adaptation is embryonic at best and needs to take place in the face of already diverse and contested interests presenting coastal communities with a dilemma: Well-intentioned approaches dressed in the rhetoric of adaptation (as legislative and guidance imperatives, and case law) are compounding existing problems by fostering unsustainable and maladaptative development.

  • Roamtraveladventures.Com Sat 05 Mar AUCKLAND
    a guided adventure for active women Sat 05 Mar AUCKLAND - THAMES Our adventure starts this morning, with a pickup at Auckland Airport (please arrive by 10.30am) before journeying south across the Bombay Hills and on to Miranda for a spot of bird-watching. The Firth of Thames offers migratory wading birds a massive 8,500 hectares of wide inter-tidal flats and attracts thousands of birds each year. Some fly all the way from the Arctic circle whilst others fly up from the braided rivers of the South Island. There are some easy walking tracks through the mud-flats and an interesting Information Centre where we can eat a picnic lunch whilst learning about this amazing natural occurrence. Our first two nights will be spent in the southwestern end of the Coromandel Peninsula in the town of Thames. Surrounded by impressive bush-clad ranges and the Firth of Thames, a heritage rich in gold and kauri and some interesting shops to poke around in. After dinner we will take a stroll along the foreshore and hopefully witness one of Thames’ legendary sunsets (weather permitting of course!) Sun 06 Mar THAMES Today we will explore the township with a local guide taking in the historic buildings and landscape. There will also be time to enjoy some of the shorter walking tracks near Thames. Native bush, Kauri forests, the singsong of birds, chattering crickets, gold mining history, tunnels and scenery awaits us. Later relax by the pool at our accommodation. Mon 07 Mar HAHEI – WHITIANGA We say haere ra to Thames and begin our circumnavigation of the Coromandel Peninsula.

  • BIRDS of CUVIER ISLAND by P.J. Bellingham*, T.G. Lovegrove**, J
    TANE 27, 1981 BIRDS OF CUVIER ISLAND by P.J. Bellingham*, T.G. Lovegrove**, J. McCallum, S.E. Pitt and I.C. Southey * Department of Botany, University of Auckland, Private Bag, Auckland t Department of Zoology, University of Auckland, Private Bag, Auckland Department of Geology, University of Auckland, Private Bag, Auckland **RD 2, Waiotira, Northland SUMMARY Sixty species of birds have been recorded from Cuvier Island and surrounding waters during a series of expeditions from 1974 to 1980. INTRODUCTION Cuvier lies 40 km east of Cape Colville, the northern tip of the Coromandel Peninsula. The island is approximately 200 ha in area, with 180 ha forming the forested flora and fauna reserve, while the remainder is the grazed pastureland of the lighthouse station (see Fig. 1). Observations were compiled during a number of visits made by T.G.L. from 1974 to 1979,1.C.S. in August 1979, J. McC. in November to December 1979, and by P.J.B., J.McC, S.E.P. and I.C.S. during the Auckland University Field Club scientific trip from 21 to 26 May, 1980. Species nomenclature follows the Ornithological Society of New Zealand (1970). Apart from kiore (Rattus exulans), the island is free of introduced mammalian predators. Since goats and cats were exterminated in the early 1960s, the forest understory has regenerated rapidly making suitable habitat for a number of native birds. By 1968 Cuvier was considered suitable for North Island saddleback, and in January of that year 29 birds were released. In 1974, red-crowned parakeets were introduced. Recent ornithological studies included those of Blackburn (1967), McLean (1975), Jenkins (1976), Reed (1976), Lovegrove (1980), McLean and Jenkins (1980) and O'Callaghan (1980).

  • Dog Control Policy and Bylaw
    Thames-Coromandel District Council Proposed Dog Control Policy and Dog Control Bylaw Statement of Proposal The Thames-Coromandel District Council has reviewed its Dog Control Bylaw (Part 10 of Council's Consolidated Bylaw 2004) and Dog Control Policy and is proposing changes to both documents. This document explains the types of changes proposed and includes the proposed Dog Control Policy and Dog Control Bylaw in full. It also tells you how you can give us feedback. Why a Dog Control Policy and Dog Control Bylaw? Dog control is regulated under the Dog Control Act 1996 (the Act). The intention of the Act is to enable people to enjoy the benefits of dog ownership and provide for the exercise and recreational needs of dogs and their owners, while minimising potential danger, distress and nuisance to the community. The Act requires that Council has a policy on dogs, and gives effect to the policy through bylaws made under the Local Government Act 2002. Some matters in the Act do not need to be repeated in a policy or bylaw, such as the obligations of dog owners and actions Council must or may carry out in response to certain situations. Some matters are at the discretion of Council such as deciding what policy approach to take and the level of regulation appropriate in the district. Council has considered the proposed Dog Control Policy and Dog Control Bylaw included in this Statement of Proposal and has determined: A dog control bylaw is necessary to give effect to Council's policy on dogs and is the most appropriate way to address problems associated with dogs in the district.
