Olenocamptus

BUGS Database

The BUGS database contains information about all wood and bark boring insects intercepted at New Zealand's border. This database covers the period between 1948 and 1999. A supplementary database contains information about fungi and egg masses intercepted between 1996 and 2000. This valuable data is used for risk analysis purposes to determine likely pathways of incursion.

Puruki Forest

Puruki Experimental Forest

Puruki Experimental Forest has been continously studied for over 50 years. Key research includes land use comparison with pasture and native forests for water yield and quality, soil carbon and nutrients and targeted forestry research on forest health, nutrition and disease, biomass allocation, solar radiation impacts on growth, leaf area and carbon stocks, and spatial variability of rainfall and water yield. This data has gone on to provide invaluable information for the development of New Zealand’s key forestry models including the forest carbon predictor, and nutrient balance model.

Mahuika Extension

Mahuika HPC Cluster (Milan nodes, Large-memory nodes, GPUs)

In 2022, the Mahuika HPC cluster was extended to allow a wider range of research communities to adopt HPC approaches and build digital skills within their research teams. With CPU capacity based on the AMD Milan architecture, its NVIDIA HGX 80GB A100 GPU cards support more analysis at scale, and expanded high-memory capabilities allow rapid simultaneous processing for faster results and insights.

Technical components:
- 64 dual socket HPE Apollo 2000 XL225n nodes (AMD EPYC Milan 7713, 64 core / 128 threads, 2.0GHz base clock, 3.675GHz max boost clock, 256MB L3 cache, 225W TDP). Of these, 56 have 512GB RAM and the remaining 8 have 1TB RAM. All have 1.92TB NVMe for swap and/or local scratch/temp, connected via HDR100 InfiniBand.
- Two Quantum 200Gb HDR InfiniBand managed switches
- 4 HPE Apollo 6500 XL645d 4-way NVLink 80GB A100 HGX nodes with single socket AMD Milan 7713, 512GB RAM, 2 6.4TB NVMe drives, HDR200 InfiniBand
