Juvenile snappers

NIWA has a number of projects that are allowing us to better understand the interaction between snapper and their environment over their life cycle.

The Southern Ocean has a strong influence on New Zealand and global climate. To understand how the oceans have changed over 1000s of years we use sediment archives from the seafloor.

The ability to properly manage our freshwater resources requires a solid understanding of the flora and fauna which live in and interact with them.

Radio and acoustic tracking of fish (or any animal) allows the movement and activity of animals to be recorded over the life of the transmitter (battery size dependent).

Passive Integrated Transponders (PIT) are used to tag fish (or any animal) for life.
