Environmentally Sustainable Aquaculture: An Eco-Physical Perspective
(The University of Waikato, 2008)The New Zealand aquaculture industry during the late 1990s and early 2000s experienced a significant and sustained period of growth. Greenshell mussels (Perna canaliculus) are proving to be a popular and valuable cultured ... -
An integrated GIS approach for sustainable aquaculture management area site selection
(Elsevier, 2008)Within New Zealand, growth in the aquaculture industry has led to the diversification of aquaculture sites from more sheltered bays and harbours toward open coast locations. Coastal zone managers, along with the aquaculture ... -
Integrated sediment habitat mapping for aquaculture zoning
(Coastal Education & Research Foundation, 2007)The benthic environment of the nearshore to inner-shelf within the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, was sampled and surveyed to classify sedimentary environments and benthic habitats. Reef and soft sediment habitats are ... -
Sediment dynamics surrounding a flood tidal delta adjacent to reclamation and a dredged turning basin
(Coastal Education & Research Foundation, 2007)Field measurements of tidal current velocities are used to infer sediment transport characteristics in the lower section of a large, tidally dominated estuarine system at Whangarei Harbour, New Zealand. Recent (2002) ... -
Transient wind-driven coastal upwelling on a shelf with varying width and orientation
(R S N Z Publishing, 2008)Cross-correlations between along-shelf wind stress and both along- and cross-shelf currents within the central Bay of Plenty, New Zealand show the circulation during spring–summer to be highly responsive to wind events. ...
