SedNetNZ mean annual sediment yields for Wairoa catchment under contemporary and projected future climate change at mid (2040) and late (2090) century for the best-efforts mitigation scenario

Description

Mean annual suspended sediment yields modelled using SedNetNZ for all RECv2.4 segments for the best-efforts mitigation scenario in the Wairoa catchment. Sediment yields are modelled under contemporary climate and future climate change projections using 6 regional climate change models (RCMs) reported as min, med, and max across 4 representative concentration pathways (RCPs), RCP2.6, RCP4.5, RCP6.0 and RCP8.5.
