Recently, a PhD thesis entitled "Airborne gravity across NZ - for an improved vertical datum" was written by Jack McCubbine of Victoria University, Wellington. The thesis was supervised by Dr Euan Smith, Dr Fabio Caratori and Dr Matt Amos, and submitted to the School of Geography, Environment and Earth Science. McCubbine obtained MMath from Exeter in 2012.
