Pond water quality at Tahuna Torea Nature Reserve

I believe this is an inaugural report on pond water quality at Tahuna Torea Nature Reserve. The report summarises water quality monitoring before and after the recent koi carp removal project.

While too few fish were removed to see measurable changes, the work has provided useful baseline data on pond conditions. The findings also highlight the impacts of accumulated sediment and outline likely future pressures from sea level rise.
