Welcome
This wiki provides information from the NIWA Eutrophication Risk Assessment research programme. The aim of the programme was to conduct experiments and field observations on the response of aquatic plants, stream and river periphtyon, phytoplankton, and estuarine macroalgae to nutrients, and to develop tools to assess risks of eutrophication at catchment scale.
The programme ran from October 2016 to June 2020, and was funded under Ministry for Business and Innovation Strategic Science Investment funding. Some projects components are continuing after this date, so the wiki may be updated in the future.
Key sections of the wiki are:
- Programme description provides an overview of the research programme goals and design
- Eutrophication Primer pages provide a general introduction to eutrophication
- Experiments and field observations in this programme
- Models in this programme
- List of publications lists journal papers produced with funding from this programme
You can navigate through the various pages in the wiki using the Page Tree pane to the left. If you get lost, click the NIWA logo or use the breadcrumbs in blue at top of the page.
