Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.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.

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.Mordenite is a naturally occurring zeolite mineral that is the seventh most common zeolite mineral globally, forming at low temperatures (≥100°C) in hydrothermal systems. In New Zealand, extensive deposits of mordenite are commonly associated with areas of hydrothermal alteration, particularly in the Coromandel and Taupo Volcanic Zones.

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.Detrital platinum group minerals (PGM) are rare and distinctive in Pleistocene–Holocene sedimentary systems of the southern South Island, thereby enabling tracking of their long‐distance transport for ∼200 km. The first ∼100 km of transport involved Pleistocene glaciofluvial processes southwards down the Waiau River, where PGM (principally Pt–Fe and Ru–

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.The Torlesse Composite Terrane (TCT) forms many of the mountain ranges in Aotearoa New Zealand and has provided enormous quantities of coarse‐grained sediment to Te Riu‐a‐Maui/Zealandia's basins since the mid‐Cretaceous. Tracing the provenance of these sediments to certain regions of the TCT can indirectly reconstruct exhumation patterns associated ...

Historical Records of Tumours in New Zealand Marine Fishes
New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 2, June 2026.Tumours were first described in New Zealand marine fishes in 1982 but those early records have been difficult to access and subsequently few tumours have been collected and little has been published. This review updates records of identified tumours from teleosts in the New Zealand marine environment and may encourage more work to identify background ...

Stratigraphy and development of the Late Miocene-Early Pleistocene Hawke’s Bay forearc basin
, 2004 A Late Miocene-Early Pleistocene mixed carbonate-siliciclastic sedimentary succession about 2 500 m thick in the Hawke’s Bay forearc basin is the focus of a basin analysis. The area under investigation covers 3 500 km2 of western and central Hawke’s Bay.

Iron Fertilization of the North Pacific Did Not Drive Long‐Term Pliocene to Quaternary Cooling
AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract While several hypotheses exist to explain the development of large‐scale perennial Northern Hemisphere ice sheets in the late Pliocene and early Pleistocene, the prevailing view is that a decline in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) drove this substantial change in late Neogene climate.
