Phase I research
During 2014–2019, we increased our knowledge about our coasts and oceans, produced new tools for marine management, built relationships with stakeholders and Māori partners, and developed the concept of EBM for Aotearoa.

We identified ways for people to get involved in making decisions about the management and future of Aotearoa New Zealand's marine estate.
MoreWe developed ways to measure the values New Zealanders have for the marine environment.
MoreWe investigated how human activities and environmental change can affect marine ecosystems.
MoreWe developed and trialled tools to support EBM. These tools help us understand how management decisions can affect marine environments.
MoreWe worked with Māori to capture their needs and aspirations for marine management, and to unlock the potential of mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge), resources and people.
MoreWe looked at how EBM might be implemented and what changes will be needed to implement EBM in the future.
MoreWe collaborated with Māori communities to review scientific information that may support the expression of kaitiakitanga and other kaupapa t…
MoreWe investigated whether a range of different mathematical models accurately reflect seasonal seabird distributions in Aotearoa New Zealand w…
MoreThis research built a foundation for a world-leading indigenous blue economy in Aotearoa New Zealand.
MoreWe trialled two innovative technologies to detect and monitor harmful algal blooms in coastal waters
MoreWe investigated the use of the term ‘social licence’ in Aotearoa New Zealand and what factors influence social licence.
MoreWe investigated the effects that suspended sediment from human activities has on the health and survival of deep water species in the South …
MoreWe investigated whether generating electricity from the strong tidal currents within Cook Strait is viable for Aotearoa New Zealand.
MoreWe investigated how well submarine canyons transport materials from the land into deeper waters surrounding Aotearoa New Zealand.
MoreWe investigated how marine ecosystems respond to change, and identified tipping points, risks and ways of managing them.
