  • Otago Conservancy
    A Directory of Wetlands in New Zealand OTAGO CONSERVANCY Sutton Salt Lake (67) Location: 45o34'S, 170o05'E. 2.7 km from Sutton and 8 km from Middlemarch, Straith-Tari area, Otago Region, South Island. Area: 3.7 ha. Altitude: 250 m. Overview: Sutton Salt Lake is a valuable example of an inland or athalassic saline lake, with a considerable variety of saline habitats around its margin and in adjacent slightly saline boggy depressions. The lake is situated in one of the few areas in New Zealand where conditions favour saline lakes (i.e. where precipitation is lower than evaporation). An endemic aquatic animal, Ephydrella novaezealandiae, is present, and there is an interesting pattern of vegetation zonation. Physical features: Sutton Salt Lake is a natural, inland or athalassic saline lake with an average depth of 30 cm and a salinity of 15%. The lake has no known inflow or outflow. The soils are saline and alkaline at the lake margin (sodium-saturated clays), and surrounded by yellow-grey earths and dry subdygrous Matarae. The parent material is loess. Shallow boggy depressions exist near the lake, and there is a narrow fringe of salt tolerant vegetation at the lake margin. Algal communities are present, and often submerged by lake water. The average annual rainfall is about 480 mm, while annual evaporation is about 710 mm. Ecological features: Sutton Salt Lake is one of only five examples of inland saline habitats of botanical value in Central Otago. This is the only area in New Zealand which is suitable for the existence of this habitat, since in general rainfall is high, evaporation is low, and endorheic drainage systems are absent.

This publication may be reproduced in whole or in part provided the source is fully and clearly acknowledged. ISBN 1-877265-85-3 Published November 2009 Otago lakes’ trophic status i Foreword The high quality of Otago’s lakes and waterways has come to be expected by all who live and visit the region. However, areas are coming under pressure from intensive agriculture, urbanisation and water discharge practices. To help protect water quality, the Otago Regional Council (ORC) carries out long-term water quality monitoring as part of its State of the Environment programme. Short-term monitoring programmes are also carried out in some catchments to provide more detailed information. These programmes assist regional planning and help everyone understand the need to protect water quality. This report provides the results from short-term studies, which monitored the health of five high country lakes (Lakes Hayes, Johnson, Onslow, Wakatipu and Wanaka). With this information the ORC and local community can work together to ensure the future wellbeing of these five important lakes. Otago lakes’ trophic status ii Otago lakes’ trophic status Executive summary Otago Regional Council monitored five high country lakes in the Clutha River/Mata-Au catchment between 2006 and 2009. The monitoring of Lakes Hayes, Johnson, Onslow, Wakatipu and Wanaka was undertaken in order to detect any small changes in the trophic status of the lakes.
