Latest Trends For Coastal And Estuarine Water Quality

Tuesday, 11 October 2022, 10:25 am
Press Release: Statistics New Zealand

Trends and state for 15 coastal and estuarine water
quality measures were published today, Stats NZ
said.

The quality of coastal and estuarine waters is
complex. The 15 measures were chosen because they are
indicators of ecosystem health, suitability for recreation,
and suitability for shellfish/aquaculture. The number of
sites that we present data for varies between 15–182
depending on which regional councils or unitary authorities
collect it, and the frequency of collection.

Between
2006 and 2020, for the regional councils and unitary
authorities where trends could be assessed:

  • nine
    measures had more sites with improving trends than worsening
    trends
  • three measures had more sites with worsening
    trends than improving trends
  • three measures had more
    sites with increasing trends than decreasing trends (the
    terminology of improving/worsening doesn’t apply to these
    three measures).

“More sites showed improving
trends than worsening trends for nitrogen and phosphorus,
the two main nutrients of concern in coastal and estuarine
ecosystems,” environmental and agricultural statistics
senior manager Michele Lloyd said.

Reportedly, the next Christchurch Call project will be a joint research effort with Twitter and Microsoft to identify the algorithmic triggers for online radicalisation, in order to better understand how some recruits eventually feel motivated to commit violence in line with their new beliefs. No doubt, this research effort is well-intentioned. Yet it isn’t surprising that Twitter and Microsoft, Google and Facebook might be interested in the commercial spinoffs…
