Atmospheric analysis

Long-term datasets that track persistent change in the environment are a critical component of any modern ecosystem-based approach to natural resource management and sustainable growth.

Useful drought links and information from NIWA and MPI

Dr Katja Riedel and Dr Hinrich Schaefer discuss how NIWA's ice coring work on Taylor Glacier in Antarctica is allowing us to find out about the Earth's atmosphere in the distant past.

Much of NIWA's science uses an instrument known as a mass spectrometer. But what is a mass spectrometer, and how to they work?

Farms rely on, and affect, the rivers, streams and estuaries around them. We provide resource management, research and technology services to help you optimise your water use and minimise environmental impacts.

Many of our services are of significant value to the primary sector. They include climate data and statistics, derived information, land use guidance, outlooks,  tools and Advice and information on adapting to regional climate.
