▼ Do the backgrounds and experiences of Filipino and Chilean migrants working on dairy farms in Canterbury differ?
Dairy exports are a major earner of the New Zealand economy. With the increase in the number of cows per herd and the amount of land in dairying increasing, there has been an increase in the demand for good labour. For example bigger corporate farms in the South Island compared with smaller family farms in the North Island. Given the ratio of 150-200 cows per full time staff member, there has been a shift in the labour profile from the traditional family owned and operated farm to the owner with manager and employed staff. The employment opportunities created from this have been largely ignored by New Zealanders. The New Zealand dairy industry has met this demand for staff by employing migrant labour from foreign countries, particularly from the Philippines and South America, who see it as an attractive option. These migrants have been described as ‘essential’ to the New Zealand dairy industry.
To compare and contrast the Filipino and Chilean experiences, I conducted ten semi structured interviews split evenly between the two ethnic groups. The participants were found by a snowball sample, basically one interview lead to another. Once interviews were completed I drew out key themes and used examples from participants to illustrate these.

▼ This dissertation provides a close analysis of the use of sententiae and narrative exempla in five of Chaucer's
Canterbury Tales, those of the Nun's Priest, the Wife of Bath, the Pardoner, the SillllrTOner, and the Parson. The handling of these illustrative materials is examined within the frarneYJork of traditional and late medieval sermon theory and practice. Major comrrentators such as St. Paul, St. Augustine, Gregory the
Great, Alain de Lille, and Wycliffe had much to say over the centuries concerning the character of the Christian preacher or "rethor" and the nature of pulpit oratory generally. Chaucer, it is argued, was keenly aware of preachers and their sermons. He knew of both not only in the abstract from the theorists but in a very real sense from irrrrediate experience. Without doubt, preaching was the nost important and pervasive
form of institutionalized oral expression of the fourteenth century. This study shows how Chaucer deliberately evokes the abrosphere of a medieval preaching situation in the five tales named above, doing so especially through the manner in which sententiae and narrative exempla are presented. It is concluded that he thus sheds light on the characters of those who are preaching and that he thereby gives a particularly sharp focus to the satire that is operating in these tales. It is further concluded that the role of The Parson's Prologue and Tale in the moral sphere of The
Canterbury Tales becorres pararrount when viewed in the light of the good priest's attitude tcmcrrd and handling of illustrative sententiae and narratives. Chaucer' s indebtedness to the artes praedicandi and to homiletic materials of various kinds has not hitherto escaped the attention of scholars. Neither has his use of sententiae and narrative exempla. No previous study, however, had made an in-depth analysis of such illustrative materials within the context of traditional and contemporary conceptions of the Christian preacher and the sermon. The purpose of this dissertation is to fill this gap in the scholarship. The value in such an undertaking is two-fold. First of all, it should help to give the reader a renewed appreciation of Chaucer's achievement as a literary artist: by closely scrutinizing the poet's treatment of two major commonplaces of pulpit rhetoric one is able to understand more fully hew he went about the business of his craft. Secondly, the moral thrust of The
Canterbury Tales is more forcefully felt when special attention is paid to the use of sermons illustrations by such outspoken pilgrims as the Wife of Bath, the Pardoner, and the Parson. The latter serves as a moral touchstone on the road to
Canterbury, a fact that has received increasing scholarly attention in the last few years. None of these studies, ho.vever, has recognized sufficiently the dynamic homiletic qualities of the Parson's presentation, especially his lucid and logical treatment of Biblical sententiae. This study shows how, in both the content and rrethod of his discourse, the Parson provides the…

▼ In recent decades, natural disasters appear to be occurring more frequently and be more intensive, exacerbated by growing population and urbanisation. Apart from the loss of life, natural disasters are likely to have chronic adverse impacts on the economy. Public interest in the study of natural disasters has been growing globally. However, progress on mitigation programmes has been slow. Disaster mitigation is usually placed outside of economic development planning; the study of disaster mitigation strategies and the impact of disaster on economic systems are not well resourced (Ibarrarán et al., 2009). Evaluations of disaster impact focusing on small economies, like New Zealand are particularly limited.
Recent events such as the
Canterbury earthquakes have highlighted the fragility of New Zealand’s economy to natural disasters. This study investigates the impact of natural disasters, focusing on the
Canterbury earthquakes on New Zealand’s macroeconomic performance and how it influences the country’s overall economic position. It addresses what lessons New Zealand can learn from the relevant international literature in terms of disaster mitigation strategies, macroeconomic policy implications as well as an evaluation of its institutional arrangements in the face of a disaster such as the role of the private and public insurance along with an examination of the Earthquake Commission (EQC). The international disaster experiences emphasised that pre-disaster strategic plans, in terms of preparedness and response, are particularly valuable and effective in minimising losses, in spite of the large cost in human and economic terms. New Zealand has generally responded to the earthquakes relatively well. However, a number of concerns have been raised, including a reduction in insurance and re-insurance availability, deterioration in the fiscal and debt capacity, increase in bank funding costs, problems in building standard, and deficiencies in the EQC system.

▼ This thesis is concerned with equine attachment as a form of interspecies fictive kinship, in relation to the practices, social relations, and motivations of participant groups within the Canterbury thoroughbred racing industry. Exploring the interconnections between intimacy and investment, as both financial and emotional commitments, the different sectors of the industry are analyzed as actor-network assemblages in which boundaries between professional, economic, and social relations are porous. The thesis argues that the parameters of a distinct equine community are delineated through regulated forms of haptic access. Distinctions regarding those who are and are not permitted to touch horses, articulates with a regime of risk regulation, which is more broadly explored in its physical, social, financial, and emotional dimensions. Also integral to the character of this networked community of practitioners is the symbolism of naming and branding thoroughbreds, as well as the secular rituals of the auction and the race-day. Conceived as a naturalcultural phenomenon, the race is analyzed in terms of the cross-species meanings and experiences of jockeys and apprentices, who are understood as representatives of an occupational sub-culture. Finally, this thesis also explores the preponderance of women in South Island racing; charting the path by which they have successfully adopted traditionally male-dominated roles.

▼ In the Canterbury region, New Zealand, water is a contentious issue when irrigation and dairy farming are involved. The Canterbury region accounts for 70% of the total irrigated land area in New Zealand and is one of the most productive agricultural regions. Traditionally, water has been seen as an abundant resource, but growing water demands are now outstripping the supply of water, hence threatening the sustainability of agricultural productivity. In the long term, this problem may worsen as a result of climate change, which is predicted to increase water demands and reduce supply in many parts of Canterbury.
In the recent and on-going expansion of irrigation systems, modern sprinkler irrigation methods, namely centre pivot and lateral spray irrigation technology, have replaced the old border-dyke systems. This has been due to the need to increase irrigation flexibility and efficiency to guarantee pasture growth for dairy production in dry periods. This conversion has resulted in a reduction of windbreaks to 2 m heights or sometimes led to 100% removal of windbreaks so as to accommodate centre pivot or linear move irrigation systems. Removal of windbreaks or reduction of windbreak height may increase wind speed across a field. Both spray evaporation loss and evapotranspiration are a function of wind speed. Hence, any increase in wind speed may lead to an increase in irrigation requirements. There is little information currently available on outlining how reduction of windbreak height or the complete removal of windbreaks affects efficiency in water application. Thus, this research was done to quantify the effects of windbreaks on water savings under sprinkler irrigation systems in the Canterbury region under various climatic conditions.
The research was done in three major steps: (1) spray evaporation loss (SEL)was measured under various climatic conditions for two typical spray nozzles(Nelson Irrigation Corporation Rotator R3000 and Spinner S3000 nozzles) to develop SEL prediction models; (2) wind speed reduction behind windbreaks was quantified for fields under various wind conditions; and (3) the effects of wind speed reduction by windbreaks was modelled for evapotranspiration, spray evaporation loss and irrigation. The results showed that an increase of wind speed, due to the removal of windbreaks or a reduction of height of windbreaks, leads to an increase in evapotranspiration and spray evaporation losses in irrigated agriculture. For the size of the fields considered in this study which are 80 m by 80 m (Site 1 with medium porosity windbreaks) and 120 m by 120 m (Site 2 with low porosity windbreaks), extra irrigation water of up to 14% is needed in one growing season when windbreaks are reduced to 2 m in height. When windbreaks are completely removed from the field, extra irrigation water of up to 38% and 64% is needed when irrigating using the Rotator R3000 nozzle and the Spinner S3000 nozzle, respectively. Thus, reduction of water resource use can be achieved in irrigated agriculture if irrigation…

The Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Anxiety and Chest Pain Resulting From The Canterbury Earthquakes.

▼ The aim of this thesis was to examine the spatial and the temporal patterns of anxiety and chest pain resulting from the Canterbury, New Zealand earthquaeks. Three research objectives were identified: examine any spatial or termporal clusters of anxiety and chest pain; examine the associations between anxiety, chest pain and damage to neighbourhood; and determine any statistically significant difference in counts of anxiety and chest pain after each earthquake or aftershock which resulted in severe damage. Measures of the extent of liquefaction the location of CERA red-zones were used as proxy measures for earthquake damage. Cases of those who presented to Christchurch Public Hospital Emergency Department with either anxiety or chest pain between May 2010 and April 2012 were aggregated to census area unit (CAU) level for analysis.
This thesis has taken a unique approach to examining the spatial and spatio-temporal variations of anxiety and chest pain after an earthquake and offers unique results. This is the first study of its kind to use a GIS approach when examining Canterbury specific earthquake damage and health variables at a CAU level after the earthquakes.
Through the use of spatio-termporal scan modelling, negative and linear regression modelling and temporal linear modelling with dummy variables this research was able to conclude there are significant spatial and temporal variations in anxiety and chest pain resulting from the earthquakes. The spatio-termporal scan modelling identified a hot cluster of both anxiety and chest pain within Christchurch at the same time the earthquakes occurred. The negative binomial model found liquefaction to be a stronger predictor of anxiety than the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority's (CERA) land zones. The linear regression model foun chest pain to be positively associated with all measures of earthquake damage with the exception of being in the red-zone. The temporal modelling identified a significant increase in anxiety cases one month after a major earthquake, and chest pain cases spiked two weeks after an earthquake and gradually decreased over the following five weeks.
This research was limited by lack of control period data, limited measures of earthquake damage, ethical restrictions, and the need for population tracking data. The findings of this research will be useful in the planning and allocation of mental wellbeing resources should another similar event like the Canterbury Earthquakes occur in New Zealand.

▼ This thesis examines how 18 University of Canterbury students based in Christchurch experienced housing insecurity during the three years after a series of major earthquakes from late 2010 and throughout 2011. I adopted a qualitative exploratory approach to gather students’ accounts and examine their experiences which were analysed using constructivist grounded theory methods.
Three core categories were identified from the data: mobility, recreating security, and loss. Mobility included the effects of relocation and dislocation, as well as how the students searched for stability. Recreating security required a renewed sense of belonging and also addressed the need to feel physically safe. Lastly, loss included the loss of material possessions and also the loss of voice and political representation.
The theory that emerged from these findings is that the extent to which students were able to control their mobility largely explained their experiences of housing insecurity. When students experienced a loss of control over their mobility they effectively addressed this by being resourceful and drawing on existing forms of capital. This resourcefulness generated a new form of capital, here called security capital, which represents a conceptual contribution to existing debates on students’ experiences of homelessness in a disaster context.

▼ This study examines the way in which charitable aid was administered in Otago and Canterbury leading up to, and slightly beyond, the Hospitals and Charitable Institutions Act of 1885. It utilizes a variety of sources, including archives pertaining to local authorities, organisations that administered charitable aid and documents created to establish the two provinces under study.
Otago and Canterbury administered charitable aid sometimes in dissimilar ways. This thesis suggests that this was because the two provinces were founded by different countries (Scotland and England respectively) that had developed their own philosophies surrounding the administration of aid.
Following an explanation of the Poor Laws of England and Scotland, the study will explain how Otago and Canterbury were founded and discuss how aid in these two provinces was influenced by the country of origin. After documenting how Otago and Canterbury administered their charitable relief, two towns ‒ Oamaru and Ashburton ‒ will be used to show how these different methods of administrating and viewing aid affected people in the community.
The thesis concludes that a Scottish influence of community involvement enabled Oamaru to administer its aid effectively and efficiently. Ashburton, however, was hampered by Canterbury’s adherence to civic-led charitable administration, as occurred in England. This saw aid for the majority of the province being administered from Christchurch, with the result for Ashburton that aid was often less effective, impacting on both the community as a whole, but especially the local people who were in need.

▼ The Canterbury Roll is a fifteenth-century genealogical chronicle roll that traces the succession of English kings from Noah until the Wars of the Roses. Created in a period when genealogy and ancestry had practical and ideological meaning in society, the Canterbury Roll is symbolic of the ideas of dynasty, myth and heritage that its original creators and readers valued. This thesis departs from previous historiographical approaches to genealogical rolls by treating the Canterbury Roll as a document that reflects the political culture in which it was produced. By examining the image, text and materiality of the manuscript, the thesis develops on existing scholarship and offers insights into the depiction of political prophecies, political theories of effective kingship, the justification of royal deposition and English perceptions towards foreign kingdoms and dominions. Political prophecies on the roll reveal how genealogy and prophecy contribute to a broader sense of history and prestige that the Lancastrian kings claimed to inherit. By using mythical royal depositions, the roll justifies the removal of Richard II and the Lancastrian dynasty’s legitimacy through not only hereditary right, but also contemporary political theory that validated the ousting of ineffective kings. The thesis also establishes that the roll reveals contemporary English attitudes towards other territories such as Scotland, Wales and France, which reflect the political and diplomatic context of the period. These themes demonstrate the capacity of genealogical manuscripts to present a nuanced view of contemporary political concepts. In doing so, this thesis both provides an in-depth textual analysis of the Canterbury Roll, and contributes to the historiography of medieval genealogical literature and political thought by approaching the manuscript as a source for the political culture of early fifteenth-century England.

▼ Individual responses to natural disasters are highly variable. The psychological and behavioural response trajectories of those who manage to cope well with adverse life events are in need of further investigation. Increased alcohol use is often observed in communities exposed to mass traumas, particularly among those exposed to severe levels of trauma, with males drinking more than females. The current study examined patterns of alcohol use and motivations for drinking among a sample of psychologically resilient individuals with varying levels of exposure to the Canterbury earthquakes (N = 91) using structured and semi-structured interviews and self-report measures. As hypothesised, there was a significant increase in alcohol consumption since the earthquakes began, and males reported significantly higher levels of pre-earthquake and current alcohol consumption than females. Contrary to expectations, there was no association between traumatic exposure severity and alcohol consumption. While participants reported anxiety-based coping motives for drinking at levels comparable to those reported by other studies, depression-based coping motives were significantly lower, providing partial support for the hypothesis that participants would report coping motives for drinking at levels comparable to those found by other researchers. No gender differences in drinking motives were found. As expected, current alcohol consumption was positively correlated with anxiety and depression-based coping motives for drinking. Psychological resilience was not significantly associated with alcohol use, however resilience was negatively associated with depression-based coping motives for drinking. These findings have inter-generational and international implications for post-traumatic intervention.

▼ Coastal and river environments are exposed to a number of natural hazards that have the potential to negatively affect both human and natural environments. The purpose of this research is to explain that significant vulnerabilities to seismic hazards exist within coastal and river environments and that coasts and rivers, past and present, have played as significant a role as seismic, engineering or socio-economic factors in determining the impacts and recovery patterns of a city following a seismic hazard event. An interdisciplinary approach was used to investigate the vulnerability of coastal and river areas in the city of Christchurch, New Zealand, following the Canterbury Earthquake Sequence, which began on the 4th of September 2010. This information was used to identify the characteristics of coasts and rivers that make them more susceptible to earthquake induced hazards including liquefaction, lateral spreading, flooding, landslides and rock falls. The findings of this research are applicable to similar coastal and river environments elsewhere in the world where seismic hazards are also of significant concern.
An interdisciplinary approach was used to document and analyse the coastal and river related effects of the Canterbury earthquake sequence on Christchurch city in order to derive transferable lessons that can be used to design less vulnerable urban communities and help to predict seismic vulnerabilities in other New Zealand and international urban coastal and river environments for the future. Methods used to document past and present features and earthquake impacts on coasts and rivers in Christchurch included using maps derived from Geographical Information Systems (GIS), photographs, analysis of interviews from coastal, river and engineering experts, and analysis of secondary data on seismicity, liquefaction potential, geology, and planning statutes.
The Canterbury earthquake sequence had a significant effect on Christchurch, particularly around rivers and the coast. This was due to the susceptibility of rivers to lateral spreading and the susceptibility of the eastern Christchurch and estuarine environments to liquefaction. The collapse of river banks and the extensive cracking, tilting and subsidence that accompanied liquefaction, lateral spreading and rock falls caused damage to homes, roads, bridges and lifelines. This consequently blocked transportation routes, interrupted electricity and water lines, and damaged structures built in their path.
This study found that there are a number of physical features of coastal and river environments from the past and the present that have induced vulnerabilities to earthquake hazards. The types of sediments found beneath eastern Christchurch are unconsolidated fine sands, silts, peats and gravels. Together with the high water tables located beneath the city, these deposits made the area particularly susceptible to liquefaction and liquefaction-induced lateral spreading, when an earthquake of sufficient size shook the ground. It was both past and present…

▼ Markmið þessarar ritgerðar er að rannsaka það hlutverk sem áhrifavald leikur í Kantaraborgarsögum Chaucers. Athyglinni er beint að tveimur þáttum, í fyrsta lagi áhrifavaldi Chaucers sjálfs sem rithöfundar, og í öðru lagi birtingarmyndum áhrifavalds hjá konunum þremur í hópi sögumanna, Konunni frá Bath, Príorinnunni og Aðstoðarnunnunni, en framsetning þeirra mótaðist af forréttindum feðraveldisins á seinni hluta fjórtándu aldar á Englandi. Umfjöllunin byggist á skilgreiningu Edmunds Said (1935-2003) á áhrifavaldi, sem hann setti fram í riti sínu Beginnings: Intentions and Method árið 1975. Að auki er fjallað um tvö rit eftir konur frá því snemma á fimmtándu öld til þess að kanna hversu viðeigandi framsetning Chaucers á kvenkyns sögumönnum sínum var. Þessi rit eru The Book of Margery Kempe, eftir Margery Kempe (c.1373-1440), sem talin er elsta sjálfsævisagan sem rituð hefur verið á ensku, og The Book of the City of Ladies eftir Christine de Pizan (c.1364-1431), en hún er talin vera fyrsta konan í Evrópu sem hafði ritstörf að atvinnu.
Greiningin leiðir í ljós hvernig spennan milli áhrifavalds kirkjunnar og vaxandi veraldlegra áhrifa setti mark sitt á umfjöllun kvenna. Athugunin á ritunum tveimum frá byrjun fimmtándu aldar styður við þau viðhorf sem birtast hjá kvenkyns sögumönnunum þremur. Greiningin beinist einnig að formgerð Kantaraborgarsagna, sér í lagi því hvernig Chaucer nýtir sé gamanleikinn og nýbreytni í framsetningu sagna. Svo virðist sem Chaucer hafi verið að færa sig frá þeim hefðum sem fólust í hugtakinu auctoritas til þess að opna fyrir aðkomu fjölbreytilegri sjónarmiða og radda, sér í lagi kvenradda.; The aim of this thesis is to examine the role of authority in relation to Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales. The focus is twofold, firstly on the authority of Chaucer himself as a writer, secondly on the way authority is portrayed in the context of the ‘female’ narrators, the Wife of Bath, the Prioress and the Second Nun, whose representations were shaped by the patriarchal prerogatives of late fourteenth-century England. The discussion is based on the definition of authority proposed by Edmund Said (1935-2003) in his Beginnings: Intentions and Method from 1975. In addition, two early fifteenth century texts written by women are examined in order to consider how apt Chaucer was in his representations of the ‘female’ narrators in The Canterbury Tales. These texts are The Book of Margery Kempe by Margery Kempe (c.1373-1440), considered the earliest extant autobiographical work in English, and The Book of the City of Ladies by Christine de Pizan (c.1364-1431), who is considered to be Europe’s first professional woman writer.
The analysis reveals how tension between ecclesiastical authority and growing secularism affected the development of female discourse. The study of the early fifteenth century texts supports the views brought to the fore in the tales of the ‘female’ narrators. The analysis also draws attention to the structure of The Canterbury Tales, in particular Chaucer’s use of comedy and his…

Nitrate-nitrogen effects on benthic invertebrate communities in streams of the Canterbury Plains.

▼ Aquatic ecosystems are especially vulnerable to human impacts associated with agricultural land-use, which provide multiple stressors altering community composition, important ecosystem functions and human valued properties of freshwaters. However, the increased occurrence of excessive levels of nitrate-nitrogen has raised major concerns about toxicity and stress on aquatic life, especially in regions such as the Canterbury Plains, New Zealand. The aims of this thesis were to identify nitrate-nitrogen effects on stream communities, and additionally provide field data to inform proposed national bottom lines for nutrients in New Zealand streams. A field survey was conducted on 41 small streams on the Canterbury Plains spanning a nitrate-nitrogen gradient (mean 0.4 – 11.3 mg/L). Spot nitrate-nitrogen was collected during and after the field survey to measure temporal variation in stream nitrate-nitrogen concentration for six months. This showed nitrate-nitrogen concentration varied between season and sub-region, where concentrations increased in winter and Ashburton had higher nitrate-nitrogen than Rangiora and Lincoln, respectively. These regimes of nitrate-nitrogen showed similar patterns in mean, median and maximum concentrations. To be confident my spot nitrate-nitrogen provided a true representation of long-term water chemistry, I compared Environment Canterbury 12 monthly data with my six monthly data in a sub-set of 15 sites. This comparison showed similar nitrate-nitrogen patterns and range of values between the two datasets. I then compared 12 common benthic invertebrate biotic metrics with my nitrate-nitrogen data and found none were correlated with this contaminant. For example, the Macroinvertebrate Community Index and quantitative variant (QMCI) derived to measure the response to organic pollution provided inconsistent results when applied to my streams. Nevertheless, gut content stoichiometry of the common mayfly grazer Deleatidium spp. indicated improvement in food quality (lower C:N ratio) with higher nitrate-nitrogen concentrations. These results indicated either nitrate-nitrogen does not alter invertebrate structural metrics across this nitrate-nitrogen gradient, or that these biotic metrics measure community structure aspects not affected by nitrate-nitrogen. I then investigated possible community composition patterns across the nitrate-nitrogen gradient. Unconstrained ordination (on presence/absence data) showed invertebrate communities at my sites were influenced primarily by discharge and shade, with the next most important driver being nitrate-nitrogen. A constrained ordination (on the same data) testing the singular effect of nitrate-nitrogen showed a marginally non-significant change in composition, with higher variability in community composition at higher nitrate-nitrogen concentrations. A further aim of my study was to test the draft nitrate-nitrogen bands proposed by Hickey (2013). These nitrate-nitrogen bands may advise guidelines to protect aquatic organisms as required by the National…

▼ As a consequence of the 2010 – 2011 Canterbury earthquake sequence, Christchurch experienced widespread
liquefaction, vertical settlement and lateral spreading. These geological processes caused extensive damage to
both housing and infrastructure, and increased the need for geotechnical investigation substantially. Cone
Penetration Testing (CPT) has become the most common method for liquefaction assessment in Christchurch,
and issues have been identified with the soil behaviour type, liquefaction potential and vertical settlement
estimates, particularly in the north-western suburbs of Christchurch where soils consist mostly of silts, clayey
silts and silty clays. The CPT soil behaviour type often appears to over-estimate the fines content within a soil,
while the liquefaction potential and vertical settlement are often calculated higher than those measured after
the Canterbury earthquake sequence.
To investigate these issues, laboratory work was carried out on three adjacent CPT/borehole pairs from the
Groynes Park subdivision in northern Christchurch. Boreholes were logged according to NZGS standards,
separated into stratigraphic layers, and laboratory tests were conducted on representative samples.
Comparison of these results with the CPT soil behaviour types provided valuable information, where 62% of
soils on average were specified by the CPT at the Groynes Park subdivision as finer than what was actually
present, 20% of soils on average were specified as coarser than what was actually present, and only 18% of
soils on average were correctly classified by the CPT. Hence the CPT soil behaviour type is not accurately
describing the stratigraphic profile at the Groynes Park subdivision, and it is understood that this is also the
case in much of northwest Christchurch where similar soils are found.
The computer software CLiq, by GeoLogismiki, uses assessment parameter constants which are able to be
adjusted with each CPT file, in an attempt to make each more accurate. These parameter changes can in some
cases substantially alter the results for liquefaction analysis. The sensitivity of the overall assessment method,
raising and lowering the water table, lowering the soil behaviour type index, Ic, liquefaction cutoff value, the
layer detection option, and the weighting factor option, were analysed by comparison with a set of ‘base
settings’. The investigation confirmed that liquefaction analysis results can be very sensitive to the parameters
selected, and demonstrated the dependency of the soil behaviour type on the soil behaviour type index, as the
tested assessment parameters made very little to no changes to the soil behaviour type plots.
The soil behaviour type index, Ic, developed by Robertson and Wride (1998) has been used to define a soil’s
behaviour type, which is defined according to a set of numerical boundaries. In addition to this, the
liquefaction cutoff point is defined as Ic > 2.6, whereby it is assumed that any soils with an Ic value above this
will not liquefy due to…

▼ The Canterbury Tales and Chaucer’s Corrective FormbyChad Gregory CrossonDoctor of Philosophy in EnglishUniversity of California, BerkeleyProfessor Steven Justice, ChairThe long and sharp debate over Geoffrey Chaucer’s moral aims for the Canterbury Tales has been shelved in recent years, not resolved. The question of his moral aims is unavoidable by design, but it is also irresolvable by design. At least that is my claim: I show that Chaucer’s fictional narrative devises a corrective process based on grammatical emendation that was tied, by a long-standing analogy, to moral reform. Through his narrative, Chaucer pushes his reader to retrace the corrective structure in the Tales, yet the sort of corrective process he recreates is so closely akin to moral practice as to make any distinction between the two difficult. The resulting form is a defining characteristic of the Tales and answers why his moral aims have been irresolvable: in this literary form, the literary and moral are inseparable; they become versions of each other. Medieval grammatical and textual practice inherited this analogy of correction from traditions of classical grammar. Grammatical theory, pedagogy, and practice all developed around the correction of error in several related areas – grammar, pronunciation, style, and (eventually) scribal reproduction. Grammarians and scribes understood correction as a task requiring chronic vigilance and recursive reform, and they treated these various arenas of fault and correction as analogous to each other. But they further used language that suggested an analogy with moral reform, so that evocations of textual emendation could allude to moral correction; in turn, moral error could as easily allude to textual and scribal error. Medieval grammarians and thinkers recognized that errors persist not only despite emendation, but even as a result of emendation. Roger Bacon insisted that correction perpetuated error, and handbooks like the correctoria, which listed textual variants to help correct copies of the Bible, themselves fostered errors; they perpetuated what they were designed to eliminate. And just as grammarians and scribes recognized error as inevitable, they understood emendation as recursive: since authors and scribes need chronically to re-correct their work, they could never consider emendation complete. The dissertation’s first chapter traces this history of correction: its theory in antique and medieval grammatical arts, its practice in scribal emendation, and the development of the analogy between these unending processes of verbal correction and the process, also unending, of moral correction. The remaining three chapters treat the Canterbury Tales. Chaucer, more than his predecessors, explicitly notes the recursive logic of error, as famous passages in the Troilus and his “Adam Scriveyn” show. At the same time, he bases his narrative poetics on this recursive logic, developing from it a structure and theme for his Tales. The discussion of Chaucer begins in chapter two, perhaps…

▼ This MA thesis will examine Geoffrey Chaucer’s
Canterbury Tales and its existing Dutch
translations, as well as the possibilities of a poetry-to-prose translation of this work. After a
short introduction to the author and his work, an in-depth analysis of the two existing
translations will determine the translation problems specific to the
Canterbury Tales. Poetry
to-prose translation problems will be discussed using two similar works that have already
been translated into Dutch prose, and translation theory that deals with translation of poetry
into prose will be examined. Lastly, part of the General Prologue of the
Canterbury Tales will
be translated into Dutch prose as a case study, and its specific translation problems and
solutions will be discussed.

▼ Among the sundry pilgrims traveling to Becket’s shrine in <i>The
Canterbury Tales</i>, the Pardoner is one of Chaucer’s more memorable and fraught creations. Critics have attempted to make sense of his aggressive self-contradiction ─ with respect to both his slippery morals and effeminate, incoherent physical body ─ as allegory for a spiritual condition or as a set of sexual and humoral symptoms. I propose that, like the relics he carries, the Pardoner exists at the nexus of secular and spiritual meaning. Like the cat in Schrödinger’s thought experiment, he embodies seemingly irreconcilable conditions, giving physical substance to the text’s questions about the relationship between one’s intent and the material efficacy of one’s actions in the world.

▼ Kantaraborgarsögur eftir enska skáldið Geoffrey Chaucer voru skrifaðar undir lok fjórtándu aldar. Verkið segir frá pílagrímum sem eru á leiðinni að gröf Tómasar Beckett. Til að stytta sér stundir ákveða þeir að halda keppni um hver getur sagt bestu söguna. Í þessari ritgerð verður fjallað um fjórar sögur úr verkinu en þær eru Saga konunnar frá Bath, Saga skólamannsins, Saga kaupmannsins og Saga bóndans en einnig verður Formáli konunnar frá Bath tekin fyrir. Þessar sögur eiga það sameiginlegt að fjalla um hjónabönd en megináhersla verður lögð á að finna út hver hinn raunverulegi valdhafi hjónabandsins er í þessum sögum. Ásamt því verður skoðað hvernig birtingarmyndir kúgunar og valds koma fram. Í sögunum má finna margskonar tegundir valds af hálfu karla og kvenna en þar má nefna líkamlegt vald, vitsmunalegt vald og sálfræðilegt vald. Sögumennirnir fjórir eru allir með sínar eigin persónulegu skoðanir á hjónabandi en þeim er öllum gefið fullt vald innan textans óháð kyni og samfélagslegri stöðu. Sögurnar fjórar kanna því allar hliðar hjónabanda, þær jákvæðu, neikvæðu, ónærgætnu og jafnvel þær siðlausu.

▼ Here we investigate fault-propagation fold kinematics in North
Canterbury, New Zealand, addressing questions of how kinematic model parameters can be constrained and different models distinguished and how marine terrace uplift rates reflect fold kinematics. Kinematic models are powerful tools in the study of fault-related folding, but they are
subject to problems of non-uniqueness and uncertainty. The North
Canterbury fold and thrust belt provides a location where actively growing basement-involved fault-propagation folds can be studied, where uplifted marine terraces provide critical information on fold growth rates, and where the results of kinematic models can inform understanding of deformation in a seismically active and tectonically complex region. We begin by developing methods to fit trishear kinematic models to data and to estimate model uncertainty using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. We then use amino acid racemization, infrared stimulated luminescence, and radiocarbon dating to provide new age dates for marine terraces uplifted by folding and faulting in North
Canterbury, where ages were poorly known before. Using the new ages, we calculate uplift rates for the marine terraces, which reveal significant temporal and spatial variations. We use two anticlines along the North
Canterbury coast as examples to show that marine terraces can be used to constrain fault-propagation fold kinematic models, both by serving as originally horizontal surfaces to be restored and by facilitating comparison of uplift rates at different structural positions. These approaches allow us to distinguish between trishear and kink-band kinematic models and to constrain the values of trishear parameters, eliminating models that are consistent with the geologic evidence but not the terrace uplift. By incorporating terrace uplift into MCMC simulations, we are also able to provide estimates of fault slip rate and age of folding. Ages are consistent with previous estimates, while fault slip rates are likely somewhat higher than previously thought. Finally, we test models for fault-propagation folding in North
Canterbury that incorporate listric faults, we consider the implications of recent earthquake sequences and of the reactivation of inherited normal faults for understanding fault geometry at depth, and we construct a regional cross section to estimate shortening across the North
Canterbury fold and thrust belt. We find that models of rigid basement block rotation on listric faults, although often used to explain basement-involved folding, are not consistent with the style of faulting and folding seen in North
Canterbury. Instead, we develop a model combining trishear with simple shear on steep listric faults, which serves to explain the regional characteristics of faulting and folding in North
Canterbury. We also compare this model to the simpler fault geometries tested previously and consider the possibility that not all faults in North
Canterbury fit the same model. Depth to detachment is poorly constrained by our…

▼ Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) are progressive autoimmune liver diseases (AiLD) that can lead to liver cirrhosis, hepatic failure, the need for liver transplantation and death. Although it is believed that there is an autoimmune basis to their pathogenesis, the precise aetiologies of AiLD remain unknown. The epidemiology of AiLD has remained poorly defined, as population-based epidemiological data concerning AiLD are scarce. This thesis details the descriptive epidemiology, survival and cancer incidence in population-based AIH, PBC, and PSC cohorts in
Canterbury. In addition, this work also investigates genetic risk loci and environmental risk factors, as well as identifies prognostic factors that determine outcomes in the population-based cohorts of AIH. The major findings of this work are:
1. The incidence and prevalence of AIH and PSC in
Canterbury are among the highest reported worldwide. This could mean that Cantabrians are predisposed to inflammatory autoimmune diseases and/or that case recruitment methodology in these epidemiological studies is thorough.
2. The incidence and prevalence of PBC is surprisingly low in
Canterbury when compared with studies performed in northern Europe and northern America. As the majority of our population are of Anglo-Celtic background with shared genetic background with some of these countries, this work provided support to the hypothesis that there may be a protective effect or lack of a risk factor for PBC in
Canterbury.
3. This is the first population-based AIH study to confirm that AIH presents predominantly in older women, contrary to the classical description of the disease. Nearly three quarters of patients presented after the age of 40 years with a single peak age of presentation in the sixth decade of life. This finding indicates that AIH should therefore be considered more frequently in clinical practice as a treatable cause of hepatitis in the older age group.
4. PSC associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has a worse outcome than PSC without IBD. This is the first study to show that there are striking differences between PSC with and without IBD with regard to serious complications such as cancer, death and requirement for liver transplantation. These findings demonstrate that IBD is at least a major modifying factor in the disease manifestation of PSC.
5. The mortality for AIH, PBC and PSC is significantly increased compared to the
Canterbury population. The excess mortality is due to liver related death, indicating the inadequacy of current management strategies, and the need for new effective treatments for these conditions.
6. Risks of both hepatic and extra-hepatic malignancy are significantly increased in AIH and PSC patients. Although an association between PSC and hepatic malignancy and CRC is well established, this work has demonstrated for the first time that non-melanoma skin cancer risk is also significantly increased in these patients. The current study is also only…

▼ Background: One therapeutic strategy to alleviate irritable bowel syndrome [IBS] symptoms may be to reduce the intake of dietary fructose and lactose. The majority of patients with IBS believe that diet contributes to their symptoms. They may limit their intake of certain food groups or specific foods that are vital in the diet to provide essential nutrients in attempt to self-manage their symptoms. The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the relationship between fructose and lactose consumption and IBS symptoms in 50-year old adults residing in
Canterbury.
Methods: The
Canterbury Health Ageing and Life Course [CHALICE] study is a longitudinal study consisting of 50-year old (n = 300) Cantabrians. Participants attended a 4 – 6 hour assessment and underwent multiple interviews and procedures. Data used in this thesis include the Birmingham IBS symptom questionnaire and a four-day estimated food and beverage diary [FBD]. Participants who reported any IBS symptoms were categorised into the IBS symptom group and those who reported no symptoms were categorised into the no symptoms group. Using the Birmingham IBS symptom questionnaire, individual participant scores for constipation, diarrhoea, pain score, and total symptom score were calculated. FBD data were converted to nutrients using the food and nutrient analysis programme; Kai-culator.
Results: Two hundred and twenty seven (75.7%) participants completed the Birmingham IBS symptom questionnaire and a four-day estimated FBD and were included in the analyses. The IBS dimensions constipation, diarrhoea, and total IBS score were not associated with fructose or lactose intake. A lower prevalence of IBS pain symptoms was associated with higher mean daily intakes of fructose (P = 0.055) and lactose (P = 0.041).
Conclusions: The findings suggest that participants with IBS symptoms may have reduced their intake of fructose and lactose. People with IBS could benefit from guidance from a Dietitian to achieve a well balanced diet while excluding foods they have identified that contribute to their particular IBS symptoms.

▼ Since, 2010, New Zealand, Japan and Haiti have suffered from large scale damages as the result of earthquakes. Along with the devastating immediate losses associated with such disasters, particularly the loss of lives, those exposed to such events may in addition suffer from prolonged negative effects on the wider economy.
This thesis examines the economic effects of the
Canterbury earthquakes, with a focus on the impacts on the tourism and trade sectors. Specifically, the synthetic control methodology pioneered by Abadie and Gardeazabal (2003) is used to estimate the effects of the earthquakes on regional GDP and its derivatives, tourism and international trade. The effect of the earthquake on tourism is investigated by looking at regional guest nights and regional international flight arrivals, while the effect of the event on trade is investigated through regional gross imports and regional gross exports. The synthetic control methodology is a data driven procedure that uses regions throughout New Zealand to generate a counter-factual which represents the
Canterbury region if it were relatively unaffected by the earthquake. The difference between
Canterbury and its counter-factual estimates the causal effect of the earthquake events for the region.
The effect of the earthquake on Canterbury’s tourism is significant, while the effects on regional GDP, international arrivals and exports are inconclusive with regards to statistical significance. As at 2012Q4, the average effect of the earthquakes on
Canterbury (the difference between Synthetic
Canterbury and Treated
Canterbury) indicate that regional GDP fell by 4.9% and regional regional guest nights fell by 22.9%. International arrivals fell by 17.7% reductions in imports were seen to be negligible and exports fell by 13.3%. Placebo tests and regression based techniques are used to verify the robustness of these results.

▼ This thesis comprises a study of all the records of the archbishop and chapter of Canterbury that purport to belong to the period before the Norman Conquest. The original plan had been to include a full diplomatic analysis of each document; but partly for reasons of space and partly because such a register makes heavy reading, it was decided that it could more usefully accompany the critical edition of the texts to which I hope to turn next. Instead the thesis is an attempt to throw light both on the charters and on the history of the church of Canterbury by studying them together. For in a period when our knowledge is severely restricted by lack of evidence, the study of diplomatic and of wider historical issues should not be divorced. Whilst it is true that diplomatic, like any academic discipline, can be self-defeating if its range of vision is too narrow, there is also a need if we are to understand our earliest English historical records for basic studies of Anglo-Saxon diplomatic using the principles and methods that have long been practised on the Continent.

▼ This dissertation analyzes the theology and politics of Michael Ramsey between his ordination in 1928 and his retirement in 1974. Ramsey entered the priesthood after a burgeoning career in law and Liberal politics. I argue that Ramsey's later political activism as Archbishop of
Canterbury was a continuation of his early political engagement at Cambridge. However, the Anglican Incarnational theological tradition exemplified in the writings of F. D. Maurice, Charles Gore, and William Temple exerted a powerful influence on Ramsey's politics after he entered the priesthood. This dissertation locates Ramsey within that Incarnational tradition, and I argue that the Incarnation was the locus not only of his theological writings and his historical writings on Anglican theology, but also of his political activism in the 1960s and early 1970s. I draw heavily on unpublished letters and autobiographical essays from the Ramsey Papers at Lambeth Palace, as well as on his speeches to ordinands and in House of Lords. Two chapters contain analyses of nearly all of Ramsey's published corpus, with one devoted to his historical writings and the other to his social theological writings. A third chapter analyzes three examples of Ramsey's activism at
Canterbury (on legal reform for homosexual acts, the Rhodesian crisis of 1965, and Commonwealth immigration) within the context of his Incarnational social theology. I argue that the primary issue for Ramsey in each example was the affirmation of human dignity and conscience, regardless of race, religion, or sexual orientation, and that his belief in the post-Incarnational sanctification of humankind led him to emphasize the social values that he did.

▼ The Paleocene interval within the
Canterbury Basin has been relatively understudied with respect to the Neogene and Cretaceous intervals. Within the Paleocene interval is the Tartan Formation and the Charteris Bay Sandstone, which are potential source and reservoir rocks respectively. These two formations have not been previously mapped in the offshore
Canterbury Basin and their limits have not been defined. This study utilises a database of nearly 12,000km of 2D seismic data together with data from four open–file wells and sidewall core samples from three wells and newly availiable biostratigraphic information to better constrain the chronostratigraphical interpretation of seismic data. Seismic mapping together with corroboration from well correlation and core lithofacies analysis revealed new insights into the development of the offshore
Canterbury Basin through the Paleocene. These include the delineation of the lateral extents and thicknesses of the Tartan Formation and Charteris Bay Sandstone and location of the palaeo shelf–slope break and also the development of a new well correlation panel that incorporates the Tartan Formation for the first time.
This study presents four new paleogeographic maps for the offshore
Canterbury Basin that significantly improves our understanding of the development of the basin during the Paleocene. These maps show that during the Earliest Paleocene, the mudstones of the Katiki Formation were being deposited in the south of the study area, with the siltier sediments of the Conway Formation being deposited in the north. The coarser grained Charteris Bay Sandstone was deposited from Early to possibly Middle Paleocene in the northeast. The mudstones of the Moeraki Formation were being deposited in the south at this time. From Middle to Late Paleocene, the mudstones of the Moeraki Formation were deposited in the south and these mudstones onlapped against the Charteris Bay Sandstone which remained as a high in the north. The Tartan Formation was deposited during the Late Paleocene in the central and southern areas of the offshore
Canterbury Basin, during a relative fall in sea–level. Deposition had ceased in the north of the study area or erosion possibly removed Late Paleocene sediments from there. During the Latest Paleocene, the mudstones of the Moeraki Formation were deposited over the Tartan Formation in the central and southern parts of the offshore
Canterbury Basin with the northern area undergoing erosion, sediment bypass or both.
