Report on damage at Seddon, Blenheim, and Wellington after the Seddon earthquake, 1966 Abstract of first paper: An earthquake of magnitude 6.1 occurred in Cook Strait, between the North and South Islands of New Zealand, on 23 April 1966, causing damage to a large number of chimneys in the town of Seddon, and minor damage at Blenheim and Wellington. The epicentre was determined using the values of 8.1 and 4.7 km/s for Pn and Sn wave velocities that have recently been established for New Zealand, but it could not be located with great accuracy because of the limited ranges of azimuth subtended by New Zealand seismograph stations. The best estimate places the epicentre 35 km from Seddon and the focus in the lower crust. A sequence of about 40 aftershocks was recorded during the week following the earthquake. There are indications that the epicentres of the aftershocks spread over a larger area than has been the case for some other New Zealand sequences. (auth.) DSIR Bulletin 199.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Plato is one of the key ancient authors studied by both classicists and philosophers. This volume contains the first eight of Plato's works in the traditional order which appears in most of the manuscripts. The first four, Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, ahd Phaedo are grouped by their dramatic settings concerned with the death of Socrates. The Apology and Crito display Socrates' philosophical mission. The Euthyphro discusses piety; the Phaedo proves the immortality of the soul by appeal to Plato's Theory of Forms. The second group of dialogues represent Plato's later work and are grouped according to his own indications; The Cratylus discusses language, the Thaetetus knowledge, the Sophist being and negation, and the Politicus statesmanship.This new edition offers much additional information on the preservation of Plato's text. All primary manuscripts have been checked and in most casesx freshly cololated. Papyrus fragments recently made available that were unknown to previous editors have been in several cases re-examined and their evidence reported, whilst no less important has been the search for previously unreported quotations of Plato in later Greek writers, facilitated by new editions of Neoplatonic writers. All textual problems have been thought through afresh.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. xvi, 816 pages : illustrations (chiefly color), color maps ; 25 cm. This volume is a tribute to the career of J. Brendan Murphy and features papers by over 100 authors from countries all over the world: a testament to the high-profile and far-reaching influence of Brendan's work. The topics covered fall into three broad categories that encompass Brendan's main fields of influence: (1) supercontinents and the supercontinent cycle, including reconstructions and modelling; (2) orogenesis and terranes, with a focus on the AppalachianVariscan and Central Asian orogenic belts and the oceans with which they are associated; and (2) magmatism and magmatic processes, centring on the geochemistry and isotopic compositions of magmas in arc and rift setting. Like Brendan's own research, the scope of the papers spans the globe and ranges from strongly field-based studies to conceptual analyses. All of the articles, however, are focused on unravelling some critical aspect of geology or aimed at clarifying some crucial geological process. Hence, they also share a theme common to Brendan's many contributions in emphasizing the importance of process-oriented research.…
