New Zealand lakes are found
among all sorts of spectacular scenery from deserts to rainforests. Apart
from their natural beauty, these lakes are popular for their
recreational fishing, boating, skiing and swimming.
Studies:
KANES study
groups
investigate
the processes that formed
lakes. They
learn to recognise
the various types and see how lakes support local communities (hydro electric power, irrigation,
tourism transport, recreation, ecological management etc).
