Anticipating the future need for New Zealand to report on sources and sinks of carbon (C), which may include erosion-related losses, a preliminary estimate of soil C delivered to oceans was made at the national scale.
Using estimates of C concentrations delivered to rivers by different erosion processes and estimates of sediment yields for New Zealand rivers, the potential transfer of C to the ocean by erosion was estimated to be in the range of 3-11 Mt C y-1.
We therefore investigate the C and N balance of pastoral land on soft-rock landscapes in New Zealand that undergo both infrequent shallow landslides and frequent surface erosion.

Their experience in handling unusual and difficult ideas, communicating their thinking with clarity, being aware of the reasons for their views but also being flexible and adaptive, make them able to cope with new challenges as the needs of their work change.
