Barriers and enablers to rural landowners engaging in native afforestation
21 November 2022
Native forest establishment is an important mechanism to sequester carbon in the long term, increase biodiversity, prevent erosion, and improve water quality. For Aotearoa New Zealand, large-scale afforestation is a crucial part of our strategy for climate change mitigation. Establishing new forests...

Is my paddock carbon-neutral? How our scientists contribute to understanding global climate change
16 August 2022
Measuring fluxes, the uptake or release of gases from a surface, is a crucial part of climate science. A method known as eddy covariance, first developed in the early 1950s, is today used by scientists worldwide to measure the carbon, water and energy flows between ecosystems and the atmosphere.

Towards local-parallel scenarios for climate change adaptation
16 August 2022
We live in an already complex world, to which climate change is rapidly adding an extra layer of complexity. Communities and societies are increasingly having to adapt to climate change, but the unpredictability of change makes it very difficult to plan for future responses at any scale.
