| dc.description.abstract | Continuous alum dosing of the Waitangi Stream at Lake Rotoehu commenced in 2011 to reduce concentrations of dissolved reactive phosphorus in this inflow to the lake and improve water quality. The Bay of Plenty Regional Council contracted the University of Waikato to undertake monitoring of biota in the Waitangi Stream for potential impacts due to alum dosing. Macroinvertebrate community analysis and tissue aluminium concentrations in kōura (Paranephrops planifrons) and goldfish (Carassius auratus) have been undertaken annually since 2013 to determine the impacts and bioaccumulation of aluminium. | |
