Community Participation as a Pathway to Strengthen National Precipitation Isotope Products in New Zealand.. Accurate environmental and climate modelling depends on the availability of large observational datasets, yet the generation of such data is often costly and logistically challenging for individual research groups. This limitation is particularly acute in New Zealand, where geographic isolation, complex topography, and strong climatic gradients require dense observational networks for robust national and regional scale modelling. Here we present New Zealand's national precipitation isotope database, compiled through a community data-collection effort. The database integrates historica…

Taumata­whakatangihanga­koauau­o­tamatea­turi­pukaka­piki­maunga­horo­nuku­pokai­whenua­ki­tana­tahu is a hill near Pōrangahau, south of Waipukurau, in southern Hawke's Bay, New Zealand.
