This report summarises the historic and present day extent
of seagrass in Porirua Harbour and provides a preliminary
assessment for seagrass restoration. The assessment
included analysis of seagrass cover and the suitability of
present day environmental conditions within the harbour to
support seagrass growth. These analyses were used to
evaluate the likely causes of seagrass loss in the harbour
and the potential for restoration. The report gives detailed
recommendations regarding future seagrass restoration work.
