NZ Glacial shrinkage
BODY:
Kathryn Ryan speaks to Glaciologist Trevor Chinn on the rapid shrinkage of the country's glaciers. The central Southern Alps has lost a quarter of its ice in recent decades and stands to lose another 50 to 60 per cent. The issue has been discussed this week at the Sustainable Summits conference at Mt Cook.
EXTENDED BODY:
Kathryn Ryan speaks to Glaciologist Trevor Chinn on the rapid shrinkage of the country's glaciers. Over four decades Dr Trevor Chinn has photographed all of the South Islands glaciers, of which there are more than 3000 as part of a world glacier inventory project.
The central Southern Alps has lost a quarter of its ice in recent decades and stands to lose another 50 to 60 per cent. The issue has been discussed this week at the Sustainable Summits conference at Mt Cook.
Read an edited excerpt of the interview below:
Explain the behaviour of glaciers. They do, over time, retreat and advance, retreat and advance. Is what you are seeing in the South Island consistent with that or not?
Yes, it is because glaciers are always fluctuating and trying to make a balance of ice they’ve gained from snow and ice they’ve lost to melt.
The best way of approaching this to understand it is to start with the definition of a glacier. The definition of a glacier is the amount of land above the snow line and that collects winter snow that doesn’t melt in the summer. Fortunately it is a kind of semi-fluid flow. If it didn’t flow, all our water would be at the top of the mountains as a huge block of ice. It flows down to where it is warmer and gets melted away, so that is the definition of a glacier. It is the spare snow left over after many years that moves down the valley to be melted away where it is warmer. It is the area of land above the snow line that gives you the size of your glacier and it is the size of the valley below that gives you the shape and length of the glacier.
That said, is this then acting as a canary in the coalmine to other things? When you see the shrinkage happening at this rate, how and why do you explain it?
It is explained by the snow line rising. That is cutting down the area of the land that is available to collect snow and the analogy of this, is look at the coral islands in the Pacific Ocean. The snow line is like sea level. When the snow line goes up on the glacier, it reduces the area of land and when the sea level goes up on the coral islands, it reduces the area of island available, so it’s a very good analogy to compare it with. In that way the question of, when is the last glacier going to disappear, is the same as asking when the last island is going to disappear with the rising sea level. It’s a wee bit ridiculous.
Is it a measurable indicator of climate change?
After measuring all of these glaciers, the volume of ice in the glacier is a measure of everything that the climate has done over that glacier over say 10 or 20 or 100 years. So the glacier is averaging the climate, but not just the temperature. Every single piece of climate parameter that is going on affects the glacier in some way. The world’s best climate change instrument is probably the volume of ice on our Southern Alps. It is the most accurate and reliable measure of climate change.
What do you make of the rates that are cited here? As we said this conference was talking about the Southern Alps losing a quarter of its ice in recent decades and standing to lose another 50 or 60 percent? Would you concur, and if so, what’s going to happen to those 3000 glaciers that you have documented and photographed? Particularly the most famous; Franz Josef and Fox, there’s the Tasman Glacier… What is going to happen Trevor?
In accordance to their response to the same amount of rise in snow line, it is going up the same amount everywhere. When you think of the Greenland ice sheet, when the snow line is very low and down near the sea level, you’ve got one glacier that covers the whole country. In the Ice Age we had a huge, almost one, glacier. As the snow line went up it started going up, separating the mountain peaks, so you get a whole lot of glaciers, lots of small ones, and then as it goes up more, the number of small glaciers starts dropping off. We seem to be pretty close to the maximum number of small glaciers because we’ve got so many of them and they’re all melting away quite happily there. But the response to the climate warming is different on different glaciers.

EXTENDED BODY:
Until now, no-one knew where the subantarctic rockhopper and Snares penguins went, while they were at sea between April and October each year.
But a tagging project has found the penguins travel more than 15,000km in six months.
Dr David Thompson is a seabird ecologist at NIWA, and he led the project.
"The more we scratch away at the surface of what large marine animals do during the course of their cycles, the more astounding these things that we become aware of are. The idea that a penguin from Campbell Island could travel 15,000km is quite fantastic."
Dr Thompson's research also found that the journey of the two penguin species didn't overlap.
"They're completely discrete in how they use the ocean during the winter. That aspect was not as surprising to us as the distances and the locations they went to.
"The Snare penguin, as the name suggests, only breeds on the Snare Islands, which is a tiny group of islands down by Stewart Island. That's in slightly warmer waters than the rockhopper penguin, that breeds slightly further south."

Each louse takes up a different part of albatross real estate, with one species living primarily in the head and neck area, others on the body and the "monster" louse, Harrisoniella hopkinsi which can be up to a centimetre long, shares the wing area with other species.
Nicola Toki, DOC's Threatened Species Ambassador explains why we should care about these parasitic creatures.

Kiwifruit Tingles Fijian Tastebuds
BODY:
Twenty tonnes of kiwifruit has been delivered to schools across the island of Viti Levu, Fiji, this week. Fresh fruit has been in short supply since February when Cyclone Winstone wiped out crops and communities. The kiwifruit exporter Zespri has donated a container load of fruit, with support also coming from T & G, Maersk, SEMCO and Tauranga Fruit Logistics. Most of the children have never seen kiwifruit before, and as well as trying some at school, they're taking a kilo home. The principal of Molumolu Primary School near Nadi, Sailesh Sharma, says they're very grateful for the fruit because while his rural families are now producing enough vegetables, fruit is scarce. Mangos are ripening but there's not much fruit on the trees, and guavas, oranges and mandarins were also ruined. He says it will be two months before bananas are in better supply and the price will drop.

A Sweet Job
BODY:
In a day's work, Maureen Conquer can swallow almost 100 teaspoons of honey. She was recently chief judge at the National Honey Show.
EXTENDED BODY:

After tasting 200 half teaspoons of honey in one day, international honey judge, Maureen Conquer doesn't fancy pudding.
Maureen has been a honey judge for ten years and recently was chief judge at the National Honey Show in Rotorua.
She samples each honey entered in the competition using a glass tasting rod, tasting about half a teaspoon at a time.
The rods ensure only the pure taste of the honey comes through. Wooden iceblock sticks are out of the question.
Water and slices of crisp apple are used to clear the palate between samples. Maureen says unfortunately, there is no spitting involved.
"We actually have to taste the honey...which is a lovely job but I do fear I will end up with diabetes or something at the end of the day."
The honey is tasted at room temperature to reveal subtleties of flavour.
"You look, you smell, you taste. You're getting the sweetness on the front, the bitterness at the back. You're rolling it around and you've got the texture of the honey which can be smooth or sandy...Honey is not just honey."
Maureen says mono-floral honeys, made from one flower type, vary hugely in their taste and sweetness. Some, she says, like thyme, honey dew and manuka lend themselves to cooking with garlic and herbs. "Whereas at the other end of the tasting spectrum with honey we've got things like tawiri and pohutukawa and rata and they are sort of really sweet. They're your sticky dessert wines . They're floral, they're luscious and they blend really well with things like white chocolate."
In tasting competitions honeys are grouped by colour type, not by flower type. Creamed honeys, liquid honeys and granulated honeys are judged separately.
Maureen says one of the most difficult things about being a honey judge is getting to sleep after a day's tasting.
"Because you are on quite a high, but what a wonderful natural high to have,".

Learning on the Land
BODY:
Rangiora High School is one of the few schools in New Zealand to have a working farm. It was started in 1910 and after years as a mixed stock and crop unit it was restructured as a teaching unit with an attached horticulture area.
EXTENDED BODY:
Rangiora High School is one of the few schools in New Zealand with a working farm. The farm was set up in 1910 and, after years running stock and growing crops, it was restructured as a teaching unit.
Today the farm, that's a skip and a jump away from the main school, offers basic farming skills to about 500 students every year and supplements the theoretical teaching of the Land-based Studies department.
Head of department, Gareth West, oversees the running of the farm. "We've found that this meets the needs of those students that don't want to be in the classroom, that aren't that academic and we have programmes from year 9, which is more animal husbandry right through to year 13."
Students can gain Agriculture Industry Training Organisation unit standards, which can count towards the National Certificate in Agriculture and there is also an academic course for students wanting to continue their agricultural studies at university.
This year the farm is wintering a herd of beef cows and is running 150 mixed aged ewes that have started lambing. Most of the feed for the animals is grown on the farm. There is also an area for horticulture.
"It's one of the big advantages of having the farm on the doorstep is that students can be across the road doing English; a bit of Macbeth in the morning, then out lambing a lamb... yeah it's quite different!" he says.
For some students like 16-year-old Mitch Reed, the hands-on farm training is a step in the right direction. When he leaves school he would like to work on a sheep and beef farm.
"I know for me outside is where I belong, I can't really be inside, I feel a bit contained, I just want be outside and keeping active" he says.
