Today, #BLAKEAmbassadors Georgia Hrstich and Jenny Ann Sweatman joined NIWA New Zealand's highly-skilled aquaculture team at the Northland Marine Science Centre – home to New Zealand’s largest on-land marine research facility.
They’ll spend the next 2 weeks being part of an operation at the cutting edge of research and production to farm marine finfish and participate in the day to day operations of this vibrant and successful sight.
We look forward to sharing their experience!
Meet Amy Burney – one of our 2020 BLAKE NIWA Ambassadors.
This week Amy joined NIWA New Zealand for the Climate and Atmosphere Ambassador programme where she will become engaged in the day-to-day activities of measurement programmes at the key NIWA measurement sites of Lauder and Wellington.
Amy will be actively involved in NIWA’s Climate and Atmospheric research programmes, learning how the measurements and samples are used and contribute to NIWA, New Zealand and International science programmes. Activities will include conducting field measurements of climate and atmospheric variables and assisting with processing and analysis of measurements.
