Fluctuation in Opossum Populations Along the North Bank of the Taramakau Catchment and Its Effect on the Forest Canopy C
212 Vol. 9 FLUCTUATION IN OPOSSUM POPULATIONS ALONG THE NORTH BANK OF THE TARAMAKAU CATCHMENT AND ITS EFFECT ON THE FOREST CANOPY C. J. PEKELHARING Forest Research Institute, New Zealand Forest Service. Christchurch (Received for publication 10 August 1979) ABSTRACT Fluctuations in density patterns of opossum populations were studied by faecal pellet counts, along the North Bank of the Taramakau catchment from 1970 to 1977. The study area contained two major vegetation associations, rata/kamahi forest and red beech forest. Variations in density patterns over the years indicated that peak population numbers in the beech forests were approxi mately half those in the rata/kamahi forests. The upper transitional forests above both major forest types, however, reached similar peak densities. Canopy defoliation was studied by aerial photography in 1980 and in 1973. Within 13 years over 40% of the canopy in these protection forests was defoliated. This large-scale defoliation coincided with a build-up and peaking of the opossum population. In the winter of 1974 the whole area was poisoned by air with 1080 (sodium monofluoroacetate) impregnated carrot. Approximately 85% of the opossum population was removed by this operation. The greatest decline in pellet densities was recorded in the lower and mid-forest strata. INTRODUCTION A study on the dynamics of opossum populations was initiated by Bamford in 1970 along the north bank of the Taramakau River, Westland (Bamford, 1972). Faecal pellet lines established by Forest Research Institute staff in April 1970 were remeasured in April 1974, 1975 and 1977. The area was aerially poisoned by the Forest Service in June 1974. -

THE FATAL ACCIDENT in OTIRA TUNNEL. . Before 1864 Maori
THE FATAL ACCIDENT IN OTIRA TUNNEL. Stephen WOOD, killed during construction of the Otira Tunnel Before 1864 Maori travelled through the Bealey and Otira valleys on their journeys to Westland in search of greenstone though they chose a less steep route, often through the Harper Pass, for the return journey. Arthur's Pass is 920 metres above sea level, and there is a steep descent to Otira in the west. Arthur's Pass is named after Arthur Dudley Dobson, an explorer/surveyor who discovered the pass in 1864. In 1865 a tent camp was set up for surveyors to prepare for the construction of the road to the West Coast where gold had been discovered in 1864. In 1866 the road was opened for coach traffic, and Cobb and Co coaches began to take passengers and mail over this hazardous road. The coaches set out from Christchurch, crossing the unbridged Waimakariri River, following the Bealey River up to the Arthur's Pass Village, climbing to the top of the Pass, descending through the Otira Gorge to the village of Otira, and then continuing to Hokitika. The journey took thirty six hours with an overnight stop at Bealey. In 1901 the Arthur's Pass National Park was established on the suggestion of Dr Leonard Cockayne. 72,000 hectares around the headwaters of the Waimakariri, Arthur's Pass and Otira were reserved for national park purposes under the provisions of the Land Act 1892. It was New Zealand's third National Park and now encompasses an area of 114.000 hectares. In 1883 a Royal Commission had decided that the Arthur's Pass route was the best for the railway to link the east and west coasts. -

DEVELOPING BEST MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES FOR EFFLUENT APPLICATION IN HIGH RAINFALL REGIONS S. Laurenson1, D.J. Houlbrooke2, R. Monaghan1 T. Wilson3, S. Morgan4 1AgResearch, Invermay Agriculture Centre, Private Bag 50034, Mosgiel, New Zealand 2AgResearch, Ruakura, Private Bag 3123, Hamilton 3240 3DairyNZ, Private Bag 3221, Hamilton 3240 4Westland Milk Products, PO Box 96 Hokitika E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Two- (or more) pond treatment systems discharging to water have traditionally been used for managing farm dairy effluent (FDE) on the West Coast. Many existing systems continue to discharge FDE directly into high volume, short reach rivers. This practice has come under recent scrutiny due to the potential effects of soluble P on the water quality of Lake Brunner. Application of FDE to land at a suitable irrigation depth (mm) and rate (mm/hr) is an alternative option with potential to curtail surface water pollution associated with direct discharge and recycle valuable nutrients for agronomic benefit. However, this approach does present some challenges because high annual rainfall (i.e. approx 4.8m per annum) results in a large volume of water collected from the dairy shed catchment areas while and also limits the development of soil water deficits that are large enough to safely apply FDE to land with high risk soils. The West Coast Regional Council (WCRC) intends to develop regulatory options for the management of FDE in the Lake Brunner Catchment that employ a decision support framework for application to land. Many West Coast soils would be defined as ‘high risk’ due to poor natural drainage or the hump and hollow drainage systems. -
