In 2006 a survey was conducted of Regional Council and other government freswater scientists in order to determine the current use and types of physical habitat assessments being undertaken. The results indicated that considerable variability existed among the parameters measured and how this data was used. The purpose of this book is provide a set of practical, cost effective and standardised protocols for the assessment of physical habitat in New Zealand waterways. These protocols were produced in response to a request by Regional Councils to provide guidelines and preferred methods for the assessment of physical habitat conditions within stream and river systems.
