Stakeholder factsheet

Ocean data to support adaptation

This data infosheet is for anyone interested in biophysical climate projections of the future ocean around Aotearoa. If, for example, you are interested or involved in marine spatial planning, marine primary industries, or research into the impacts of climate change on the takutai moana, marine species and distributions, this infosheet will help you navigate data produced by the Deep South Challenge. 

These data could also be used by Pacific Island Nations within the model domain. However, for analysis of marine heatwaves under climate change we point, in the first instance, to recently-published research by Neil Holbrook et al., 2022, based on multiple global models. This research includes case studies on impacts for Fiji, Palau and Samoa.
