Inland water

Inland water - groundwater, lakes, rivers, streams and wetlands - is the region's lifeblood. Reduced water availability or degraded water quality can affect our health and economic prosperity.

The indicators below tell us about the quality of our region's Inland water and aquatic biodiversity, and how it changes.

Groundwater Groundwater availability Groundwater well construction Micro-organisms in groundwater Nitrate in groundwater Pesticides in groundwater		Lakes Lake Taupo's water quality Nutrient enrichment of shallow lakes Peat lake water levels
Rivers and streams Nitrogen losses from land River biology River water quality for contact recreation River water quality Sources of nutrients in rivers		Wetlands Extent of wetlands
