Kia ora koutou
‘Tis the season of in-betweenness: marking exams, finalising grades, and attending examiners’ meetings for Semester 1, while making plans for Semester 2. Thanks to all the teaching and administrative staff involved in wrapping up Semester 1 and planning for Semester 2.
Meanwhile, the process of building our four new ENV stage 1 courses continues. It’s been great to see these taking shape and, over the second half of the year, we’ll see them transition from titles and course prescriptions to veritable, fleshed-out, exciting courses. Thanks to the many staff involved in making that happen.

ENV-stories
My father broke his leg and gave me a career.
Laid off from his job, he was doing under-the-table house-painting work to make ends meet. Lax safety standards might have been to blame, but after falling from a height, he was out of action. We were out of an income.
A month earlier, we were one of those fabled ‘bread winner’ households; now, we were on public benefits.
This is one of my first memories of ‘social risk’; a way of saying that hardly anyone really has control of their life, and lower-income people even less so. Social risk is why we have public assistance programs, like unemployment and sickness benefits. They address the uneven distribution of vulnerability across people, households and communities.
One of the fundamental purposes of government is to reduce peoples’ exposure to social risk, but over the last forty years or so, the overriding direction has been for governments to off-load, avoid and restrict this role. More and more, people manage social risk by relying on charity, family and what they can pay.
My father’s accident might have led to a career in workplace safety. Instead, my research and teaching has been about how public, community and private institutions address—or fail to address, much of the time—the welfare of populations and places. I’ve not yet painted a house.

It’s important to have a smooth system for managing our staff’s needs. That’s why we’re introducing Hono, a new platform at the University of Auckland for handling HR tasks like onboarding, leave requests, payroll, and learning opportunities. It’s replacing several older systems PeopleSoft HR, Cornerstone, Org Chart, and Silkroad.
Hono has a user-friendly interface with simplified navigation making it easier to navigate and is accessible on both computers and mobile devices.
For employees there will be a change to how you apply for leave, manage your personal details, view your pay slip, and access learning. For People Leaders, Hono offers real-time analytics, helping you make quicker, more reliable decisions for your team. You can approve team member requests with ease and receive notifications conveniently in one easy-to-find location.
Hono Go-Live is scheduled for late October to early November, pending critical testing and data migration.

ENV Seminar Series
Staff and postgraduate students are invited to the ENV Seminar Series
What: Research seminar by new staff members, organised by the Rangahau Committee. Lunch is provided
When: 27 June 12 – 1 pm
Where: 302-G20
Who: Prof. Karin Bryan and Dr. Hyesop Shin
Questions and RSVP (for lunch): Emma Ryan e.ryan@auckland.ac.nz
Prof. Karin Bryan – Are mangroves really good nature based solutions to protect against SLR?
Sea level rise is going, and councils are preparing us to adapt or retreat (or of course the environmentally-unpopular: protect). But can we have it both ways, and make better use of nature based solutions? We talk a lot about the amazing capacity of mangroves to remove energy from the ocean. Does it really work? Here I will show some quick examples from studies I have worked on in the last 10 years that show that the devil is inevitably in the detail.
Dr. Hyesop Shin – From Traffic to Playgrounds: The Power of Agent-Based Modelling in Real-World Applications
Agent-based modelling (ABM) is a powerful method for understanding individual movements and interactions, leading to insights into system-wide emergent behaviours. However, one challenge of ABM is its application to real-world scenarios. In this seminar, Hyesop will present his work on using ABM to reduce traffic emissions by evaluating Low Emission Zones and assessing children’s physical activity in playgrounds. His study emphasises the potential of ABM in tackling major urban and environmental concerns, as well as encouraging healthier, more active lifestyles for children.
This is an Award to encourage Māori students to pursue graduate studies in Environmental Science or Mathematics. The value of the Award is up to $4,000. applications are now open and close on 25 July 2024. https://www.auckland.ac.nz/en/study/scholarships-and-awards/find-a-scholarship/craig-memorial-award-415-sci.html
The TAIAO Environmental Datascience Platform is embarking on a book project
Where we dedicate each chapter to an innovation in datascience that is useful for solving an environmental science problem. We would like each chapter to be written by at least one datascientist and at least one environmental scientist, (it is an experiment on communication as well as novel methods). We are hoping that such an approach will break down silos and make the work more useful to a wider range of people. Unfortunately, the team is a bit shy, and we are very short of environmental scientists that would like to collaborate. What will it entail? Providing example data, your domain knowledge, your opinion on whether the technique is useful and how it could be made more useful. Prof Yun Sing Koh in Computer Science is leading the adventure, and the topics are as follows (with the proposed datascience lead).
Chapters
- Introduction
- Data science best practices
- Anomaly Detection / Extreme Events -> Bernhard
- Explainable AI -> Albert
- Time Series -> Yun Sing
- Streaming Machine Learning -> Heitor
- Graph Neural Networks -> Varvara
- Generative AI – Nick
- Downscaling data -> Guilherme (Climate Downscaling)
- Visualization
- Appendix – TAIAO Python Notebooks (All)
Write to Yun Sing if you are keen.

FUNDS FOR ENGAGEMENT WITH HAPORI MAORI
School of Environment has a small budget for enabling engagement with Maori, particularly through koha or contributions that may be needed to initiate research relationships. In disbursing that putea, priority is given to academic staff working on behalf of groups of staff or students, pre/consultation activities for ethics approval and collaborations that are not readily funded through other mechanisms. As it is desirable to utilise the budget before the end of the academic year, however, all well-reasoned proposals will be considered. If interested, email a brief, one paragraph description of a proposed activity and a budget for how funds will be utilised to Brad (b.coombes@auckland.ac.nz). Although there are no prescribed maxima or minima for these grants, the limited scope of the overall budget will likely preclude grants in excess of $1000. Applicants should also be mindful of UoA guidelines or policies for gifting and koha.
Post Graduate Wellbeing ….. where to go
If you are currently coordinating a PG course, could you please post the inforgraphic slide to your Canvas course page so students will know the resources that are available throughout the University.
3k writing grant available for students
These are currently on hold. Rangahau will reopen this fund for requests later in the year, please keep an eye on P-cubed for more details.
Rangahau – Research
Funding for Research Retreats
The Rangahau Committee has a small amount of funding set aside to sponsor Research retreats (e.g grant writing workshops, paper writing). This can be up to 2k per team, with a minimum 2 SoE participants.
If you have an idea that you would like considered, please submit a short paragraph explaining the intention and benefits of the retreat to katarzyna.sila-nowicka@auckland.ac.nz.
Proposal development support
The Rangahau Committee has a small fund set aside to help with proposal development (e.g. writing support, support to scope proposals etc). If you have an idea that fits within this scope please get in touch with Kelly Kilpin to discuss further.

New Horizon Europe Calls |
In mid-April, the European Commission announced a new selection of funding calls covering the remainder of 2024. The funding call details here Horizon Europe Funding Call List on the Horizon Europe Support Materials page on ResearchHub.
New Zealand can participate in these calls on equal terms as our European counterparts. However, the targeted nature of most of these calls means that it is highly likely that it will be more appropriate for us to partner on these projects, joining European-led bids as a collaborator rather than developing a proposal as a lead. Anybody exploring these opportunities should contact International.Research@Auckland.ac.nz to arrange a discussion and explore additional support available. |
