## Abstract Net accumulation measurements from two glaciers located on opposite sides of the New Zealand Southern Alps were used to explore processes controlling spatial variability. The degree of variability, as measured by the spatial variogram, differed in each of the three successive years, but

Snow melt is calculated at 1780 m a.s.l., near the Main Divide of the Southern Alps, using a bulk aerodynamic energy balance approach. Results are related to melt measured directly using a lysimeter and to synoptic weather patterns. Measurements are taken half hourly, over a 38 day period from the s
The end-of-summer snowline (EOSS) on 47 glaciers distributed throughout the Southern Alps of New Zealand is related to changes in Southern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation and sea surface temperature patterns over a 23 year period. The EOSS provides an index of the glacier mass balance, as high (
## Abstract High sedimentation rates in Pleistocene active margin basins can provide a very detailed record of tectonic and climatic controls on sediment preservation. A 500โm thick, Pleistocene rock section exposed in northeastern North Island of New Zealand (Kidnappers Group), provides the opport
