The Te Puninga Fault, Hauraki Plains: a new seismic source in the low seismicity northern region of New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 609-627, December 2025.
ABSTRACT In this study, we provide the first field‐based assessment of the seismic potential of the Te Puninga Fault, Hauraki Plains, Waikato region. Initially considered to be part of the nearby Kerepehi Fault, our new mapping and field data suggest the Te Puninga Fault is independent.

New Zealand Active Faults Database: the high‐resolution dataset v2.0

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 955-970, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The New Zealand Active Faults Database (NZAFD) contains underpinning data to help mitigate the impacts of future surface‐rupturing earthquakes in Aotearoa New Zealand. However, defining the associated hazards and risks must be undertaken at relevant scales and as such, the NZAFD contains two scale‐based datasets each serving complementary, but

Understanding energy cultures of space heating in Aotearoa New Zealand: a desktop review of slow ground source heat pump uptake

Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 20, Issue 4, Page 850-880, December 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the slow adoption of geothermal Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) technology in New Zealand amid the urgent need for sustainable energy solutions in the face of the climate crisis. Internationally, GSHPs offer many environmental, social and economic benefits across residential and commercial sectors.

Beaver wetlands create a buzz and a flutter for pollinators

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 12, Page 3288-3299, December 2025.
Our results show that beaver wetlands boost hoverfly richness/abundance, butterfly abundance and diversify foraging resources for pollinators while comparing favourably with human‐created ponds for other pollinators. Support for beaver wetlands, in tandem with riparian buffers and pond margins, should therefore be advocated in agri‐environment schemes ...

On the degenerate negative λ-binomial and Poisson random variables from degenerate special polynomials

Mathematical and Computer Modelling of Dynamical Systems
In this paper, we investigate the theory and applications of negative λ-binomial random variable with parameter [Formula: see text] and Poisson random variable with parameter [Formula: see text].

Individual variation in animal communication: from species averages to unique voices

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2625-2640, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The comparative study of communicative behaviour in non‐human animals, especially primates, has yielded crucial insights into the evolution of human language. This research, mostly focused on the species and population level, has improved our understanding of the various socio‐ecological factors that shape communication systems.

Nonverbal Rationality? 2‐Year‐Old Children, Dogs, and Pigs Show Unselective Responses to Unreliability but to Different Degrees

Child Development, Volume 96, Issue 6, Page 2047-2061, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Some philosophers argue that reflection is key to rational thinking. By tying reflective thinking to language, they struggle to account for minimally verbal infants and exclude nonhuman animals. This study assessed processing of undermining defeaters—a basic form of reflective thinking—in 36 two‐year‐old British children (13 female; Mage = 30 ...

Three closed forms for convolved Fibonacci numbers

Results in Nonlinear Analysis, 2020
In the paper, by virtue of the Faà di Bruno formula and several properties of the Bell polynomials of the second kind, the author computes higher order derivatives of the generating function of convolved Fibonacci numbers and, consequently, derives three

Growth problems in diagram categories

Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 57, Issue 11, Page 3454-3469, November 2025.
Abstract In the semisimple case, we derive (asymptotic) formulas for the growth rate of the number of summands in tensor powers of the generating object in diagram/interpolation categories.
