Examining emergency department inequities in Aotearoa New Zealand: Findings from a national retrospective observational study examining Indigenous emergency care outcomes. [PDF]
This retrospective observational study used a Kaupapa Māori framework to investigate ED admissions into 18/20 District Health Boards in Aotearoa New Zealand (2006–2012). Despite some ED process measures being positive for Māori, for example arrival to assessment time and access block, others showed no difference, for example self‐discharge.

Abstract Despite the urgency of decarbonising, the shipping sector has demonstrated a slow‐paced response to climate change challenges. Some frontrunner firms are engaged in sustainability‐oriented innovation processes. However, there is limited knowledge of how such processes emerge and contribute to societal sustainability transitions and what the ...

The paper presents a node localization optimization scheme using a hybrid bio‐inspired algorithm called Harris Hawks Optimization Algorithm based on differential evolution (HHODE). It is shown that the proposed paradigm is capable of increasing the localization rate, as well as minimizing the computing cost.

Modification of the EEDI for Ro-ro Passenger Ships [PDF]
In the 3rd IMO GHG study the new data on the ships emissions indicate a clear need for improvements in ship energy efficiency in order to preserve the environment. Although the majority of the pollution originates from the international shipping, the environmental impact of the short-sea shipping, primarily from ro-ro passenger ships, should not be ...
