<p>We report on drought frequency, duration, severity, and intensity at three different time scales, short-term (3 months), medium-term (6 months) and long-term (12 months). These different time scales are approximately equivalent to meteorological, agricultural, and hydrological drought, respectively. We do this for 30 sites across Aotearoa New Zealand monitored by NIWA (National Institute for Water and Atmospheric Research) from 1972 to 2022. To measure drought events, this dataset uses the Standardised Precipitation-Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI), which incorporates temperature and precipitation. </p>
<p>Drought frequency is the number of drought events across a specified period of time. Drought duration is the number of months in a drought event. Severity is a measure of how dry a drought event is, and intensity is a measure of drought severity scaled by its duration. Extreme dryness is indicated by SPEI values of less than -2. </p>

<p>This dataset shows the trends of annual growing degree days (GDD) for 30 sites across New Zealand from at least 1972 to 2019. GDD are the total number of degrees Celsius above a base threshold temperature for each day. We use a base threshold of 10 degrees Celsius to report on the annual GDD for each of these sites and trends.<br>
Growing degree days (GDD) indicate the amount of warmth available for plant and insect growth and can be used to predict when flowers will bloom, and crops and insects will mature. Increased GDD means that plants and insects reach maturity faster, provided that other conditions necessary for growth are favourable, such as sufficient moisture and nutrients.</p>

<p>This indicator provides data for the number of warm days (daily maximum temperature above 25 degrees Celsius) for the 30 sites across New Zealand from at least 1972 to 2022. </p>
<p>Global average temperatures have increased by around 1 degree Celsius in the last century, almost certainly a result of high levels of atmospheric greenhouse gases emitted from human activities. While this change may seem small, relatively small changes in our climate can have big effects on our environment (Ministry for the Environment [MfE] & Stats NZ, 2019). </p>
<p>The number of warm days change from year to year in response to variable weather patterns and climate drivers. Climate models project we may experience more warm extremes in the future (IPCC, 2021). According to the WMO (2016) a decrease in cold days and nights and an increase in warm days and nights can have major implications for human health, agricultural production, and ecosystems. </p>

<p>This indicator measures the number of frost days for 30 sites across Aotearoa New Zealand from at least 1972 to 2022. </p>
<p>The number of frost days changes from year to year in response to variable weather patterns, and their occurrence is also influenced by climate change. Climate models project we may experience fewer cold and more warm extremes in the future. Changes in the number and timing of frost days can affect agriculture, horticulture, and viticulture, for example, by damaging and destroying crops at sensitive growth stages.</p>
<p>Variables:<br>

<br /><strong>Updated with new data on 02 Dec 2023</strong><br />
<p>This data set measures the rise in annual mean sea level relative to land referenced to the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 1995 to 2014 baseline period mean sea level at four longer-term sites between 1901 and 2020:<br>
• Auckland<br>
• Wellington<br>
• Lyttelton<br>
• Dunedin<br>
and two additional sites with shorter time series:<br>
• Moturiki, Mount Maunganui (1951 to 2020)<br>
• New Plymouth (1920 to 2020).<br>
Relative sea-level rise includes the vertical land movement of the surrounding area (for example, a sinking landmass increases the relative rise in sea level).</p>
<p>We report on linear trends for sea-level rise for the full period between 1901 and 2020 for the four longer-term sites. We also publish the linear trends for these sites for two time periods: 1901 to 1960 and 1961 to 2020. For Moturiki and New Plymouth, we publish linear trends for the 1961 to 2020 period only.</p>

trend_start_year: The first year in the annual mean sea level time series that the trend relates to.<br>
trend_end_year: The last year in the annual mean sea level time series that the trend relates to.</p>
<p>msl_trend: The estimated annual change in coastal sea level based on the trend assessment (in other words, the slope of the linear trend line). Trends were calculated using weighted linear regression models. The models used annual mean sea level data (relative the baseline) that was weighted to account for years that had less than 12 monthly average mean sea level values. Models also accounted for climatic conditions of temperature and pressure.

<p>"Particulate matter 10 micrometres or less in diameter (PM10) in the air comprises solid particles and liquid droplets from both natural and human-made sources. PM10 can be emitted from the combustion of fuels, such as wood and coal (eg from home heating and industry), and petrol and diesel (from vehicles). Natural PM10 includes sea salt, dust, pollen, smoke (from bush fires), and volcanic ash. Nationally, burning wood or coal for home heating is the main human-made source of PM10. PM10 is of particular concern because it is found in high concentrations in some areas and can damage health. It is associated with effects ranging from respiratory irritation to some forms of cancer.</p>
<p>This dataset shows annual average PM10 concentrations for years 2006 to 2013. Field names are PM10_.<br>

<p></p>
<p>Benthic macroinvertebrates are small animals without backbones (for example, insects and worms). They live on and under submerged logs, rocks, and aquatic plants on the beds of rivers and streams during some part of their life cycle. Macroinvertebrates play a central role in stream ecosystems by feeding on periphyton (algae), macrophytes (aquatic plants), dead leaves and wood, or on each other. In turn, they are an important food source for fish and birds.</p>
<p>The macroinvertebrate community index (MCI) is used as an indicator of water quality and overall stream health. It is one of five parameters that provide an overview of New Zealand’s river water quality and how it is changing over time. This data shows:</p>

<p>Nitrogen in river waters is one of five parameters that provide an overview of New Zealand’s river water quality and how it is changing over time. Nitrogen is an essential nutrient for plants and algae. Some nutrient supply is a natural component of healthy rivers, but agricultural and urban land use, and infrastructure such as wastewater treatment plants, can add more nitrogen to waterways. Too much nitrogen can lead to excessive growth of algae, which can deteriorate river habitats. In very high concentrations, some forms of nitrogen, including nitrate-nitrogen and ammoniacal nitrogen, can be toxic to aquatic life.</p>

<p>"River flow refers to the quantity of water passing a point in the river over a certain amount of time. Different rivers have different flow patterns, such as sharp peak flows following rain with low flows in between, or high spring flows from snow melt. These flow characteristics affect how much water is available for irrigation, drinking water, hydro–electric power generation, and recreational activities such as fishing and boating. River flows are also very important for maintaining the health and form of a waterway.</p>
