NIWA, National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research "Enhancing the benefits of New Zealand's natural resources" NIWA - with its global reputation for excellence in water and atmospheric research - is one of New Zealand's seven Crown Research Institutes, organisations tasked with carrying out scientific research for the benefit of New Zealand. Our purpose is to enhance the economic value and sustainable management of New Zealand’s aquatic resources and environments, to provide understanding of climate and the atmosphere, and to increase resilience to weather and climate hazards to improve the safety and wellbeing of New Zealanders. We are the lead Crown Research Institute (CRI) in the following areas: • aquatic resources and environments (with a focus on surface freshwaters and coastal environments) • oceans • freshwater and marine fisheries • aquaculture • climate and atmosphere • climate and weather hazards • aquatic and atmospheric-based energy resources • aquatic biodiversity (including biosystematics) and biosecurity.

The Marine Conservation Society is the UK's leading marine charity working towards a cleaner, better protected and healthier ocean, for everyone 🌊 Today, our ocean is in poor health because of human activity. We’re determined to change this, working with communities, businesses and governments. For more than 30 years, we’ve been the voice of the sea, defending our coastal habitats and species. For a cleaner ocean, we find ways to prevent and clean up marine litter and pollution. And we use science to track the health of our waters. For a better-protected ocean, we secure spaces where species and habitats can recover. Only a sea full of life can absorb carbon and tackle climate change. For a healthier ocean, we promote sustainable fishing and aquaculture to minimise harm caused by harvesting and farming resources. And we educate the public so consumers can make better seafood-buying choices. Together, we can achieve our vision of seas full of life, where nature flourishes and people thrive.
