Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is a crucial prenatal diagnostic tool, but a declining number of procedures makes training a challenge. Here we describe a transcervical CVS simulator made from ballistic gelatin. Ninety‐three Maternal‐Fetal Medicine providers used the simulators during hands‐on workshops and completed surveys regarding their fidelity ...

Creating Flood Disasters: Environmental Memory and Adaptation in Aotearoa New Zealand
This article explores three questions. First, why does New Zealand have widespread flooding hazards? Second, why are these persistent, with little seemingly learned from the memory of earlier events? And third, beyond reiterating conventional solutions, what examples of alternatives or adaptations are being developed in different places?

Modeling the Intermediate Flow Regime in Flow‐Compensated Intravoxel Incoherent Motion MRI
ABSTRACT Purpose The intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) model is commonly used to separate the effects of motion related to diffusion and blood microcirculation (perfusion) on the MR signal. Depending on the encoding time (T), it is possible to probe the different temporal regimes of blood motion, which resemble a ballistic flow at short T and a ...

Mass Transport of a Two Phase Flow Through a Converging Gap With One Moving Wall
ABSTRACT Mechanical seals are designed to separate two fluid phases from each other, exemplified by the separation of ambient air and hydraulic oil in hydraulic cylinder applications. These seals necessarily include a converging gap, even at a microscopic level.
