Land-based effects on coastal fisheries, kaimoana, and their habitats occur through a diversity of mechanisms.

Background into concerns and interests held by selected iwi and hapū is provided. A potential new emerging issue is Submarine Groundwater Discharge rate reductions to coastal zones. Fundamental knowledge gaps remain, with research suggestions made.
