  • COCKLES (COC 3) Otago Peninsula (Austrovenus Stutchburyi) Tuaki
    COCKLES (COC 3) COCKLES (COC 3) Otago Peninsula (Austrovenus stutchburyi) Tuaki Waitati Inlet Purakunui Otago Harbour Papanui Inlet 1. FISHERY SUMMARY COC 3 was introduced into the Quota Management System in October 2002 with a TAC of 1500 t; comprising of a customary allowance of 10 t, a recreational allowance of 10 t, an allowance for other fishing related mortality of 10 t, and a TACC of 1470 t. Historical catch limits can be seen in Table 1. 1.1 Commercial fisheries Cockles are present at various locations around the Otago Peninsula but are only commercially fished from Papanui Inlet, Waitati Inlet, and Otago Harbour (under a current special permit). Commercial fishing in Papanui and Waitati Inlets began in 1983. A limit of 104 t was in effect for Papanui and Waitati Inlets combined from 1986–87 until 1991–92. From 1992–93 to 1998–99, the catch limits were 90 t for Papanui Inlet and 252 t for Waitati Inlet. In April 2000, the catch limits were increased to 427 t for Papanui Inlet and 746 t for Waitati Inlet. In 2002 when cockles entered the QMS spatial restrictions upon harvest within COC 3 were removed. Commercial landings from Papanui and Waitati Inlets are shown in Table 1. Since August 2009 cockles have been taken from Otago Harbour under a special permit in order to investigate the ecosystem effects of commercial cockle harvesting in this location. This permit states no explicit limit to the tonnage able to be taken but does delimit the area where harvest will be taken and currently expires on the 31st of December 2015.

  • New Zealand National Climate Summary 2011: a Year of Extremes
    NIWA MEDIA RELEASE: 12 JANUARY 2012 New Zealand national climate summary 2011: A year of extremes The year 2011 will be remembered as one of extremes. Sub-tropical lows during January produced record-breaking rainfalls. The country melted under exceptional heat for the first half of February. Winter arrived extremely late – May was the warmest on record, and June was the 3 rd -warmest experienced. In contrast, two significant snowfall events in late July and mid-August affected large areas of the country. A polar blast during 24-26 July delivered a bitterly cold air mass over the country. Snowfall was heavy and to low levels over Canterbury, the Kaikoura Ranges, the Richmond, Tararua and Rimutaka Ranges, the Central Plateau, and around Mt Egmont. Brief dustings of snow were also reported in the ranges of Motueka and Northland. In mid-August, a second polar outbreak brought heavy snow to unusually low levels across eastern and alpine areas of the South Island, as well as to suburban Wellington. Snow also fell across the lower North Island, with flurries in unusual locations further north, such as Auckland and Northland. Numerous August (as well as all-time) low temperature records were broken between 14 – 17 August. And torrential rain caused a State of Emergency to be declared in Nelson on 14 December, following record- breaking rainfall, widespread flooding and land slips. Annual mean sea level pressures were much higher than usual well to the east of the North Island in 2011, producing more northeasterly winds than usual over northern and central New Zealand.
