Land Environments of New Zealand

J. Leathwick, G. Wilson, D. Rutledge, P. Wardle, F. Morgan, K. Johnston, M. McLeod & R. Kirkpatrick

LENZ gives an insight into the rich diversity of New Zealand’s ecosystems by merging traditional approaches to ecology with powerful modern spatial analysis tools. Its classification of New Zealand’s landscapes provides a powerful tool that will profoundly change the way we manage biodiversity and land-related issues.

A technical guide is available for download, and LENZ data layers can be accessed via the Koordinates and LRIS websites.   The hardcover book is not currently available.
