    This core-funded research project aimed to map river reaches that gain and lose water to, and from, the groundwater system from two regions of New Zealand (Southland and Otago). A survey of river reaches that lose and gain flow in these regions of New Zealand was conducted at Environment Southland (ES), and Otago Regional Council (ORC) with key hydrologists, groundwater scientists and ecologists to record their knowledge of the locations of flow losing and gaining reaches on rivers and streams in their region. Following these interviews, the information was then transferred to a GIS layer to enable mapping of losing and gaining reaches in Southland and Otago. This work could serve as a platform for groundwater related research or engineering by NIWA in New Zealand.
