fast flowing streams run down the hillsides and then widen and begin to meander as the topography of the land flattens out. Across the FMU, much of the landscape is sheltered in native or exotic forest, or utilised for dry stock farming (Figure 2). The hill country area is underlain by erodible geology such as papa, silts and clays. The hills are prone to landslides and the slower moving rivers regularly deposit sediment and wood along their length. During
undertaken in a private or company vehicle; 6.3% by walking or cycling; and less than 1% by public bus. At 17.4% of the census population, nearly three times as many people worked from home as used shared and active travel modes to a place of employment. This matters because motor vehicles make a significant contribution to Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2), which are driving climate change. There are also issues of traffic congestion
concentration of chlorophyll-a per square metre (a pigment that plants use for photosynthesis). Periphyton is also measured visually so that it can be compared to guidelines for ecological health or aesthetic values. Weighted composite cover measures the combined cover of some of the less desirable forms of periphyton, such as long filaments and thick mats. Monitoring is carried out where periphyton is likely to grow. This includes sites with rocky or sandy streambeds where periphyton can

Native Condition Index, an Invasive Impact Index and an overall LakeSPI Index. A higher LakeSPI and Native Condition Index denotes better lake ecological condition and higher Invasive Impact Index denotes poorer Lake Condition. Theoretically, a pristine lake with diverse native submerged vegetation, unimpacted by human activities or invasive species, would score a LakeSPI Index of 100%, a Native Condition Index of 100% and an Invasive Impact Index of 0% (de Winton et al., 2022).
Essential Freshwater, covering a range of initiatives including synthetic nitrogen caps and freshwater farm plans. The NPS-FM sets out requirements for freshwater management to: manage activities that impact freshwater in a way that ‘gives effect’ to Te Mana o te Wai; maintain and/or improve freshwater and address any degradation; implement the National Objectives Framework (NOF); avoid any further loss or degradation of wetland extents and to encourage their

Despite the assimilating qualities of the Tasman Sea, the quality of freshwater in the Volcanic Ring Plain FMU does have an impact on inshore coastal water quality, particularly near the mouths of rivers and streams where people may be swimming, surfing or fishing.
