Lakes380 - Our Lakes' Health: past, present, future is a New Zealand limnology research project focussed on determining the health, wellness and history of about 10 per cent of New Zealand's 3800 lakes, by collecting surface water, sediment samples and sediment cores and using many different techniques including environmental DNA (eDNA), and other core scanning methods to analyze them. By drawing on both traditional Māori knowledge and biophysical science, it was intended to provide a public resource to assist the development of restoration and management plans for these lakes. The project is jointly led by GNS Science and the Cawthron Institute and works with a wide range of New Zealand and international participants and partners. It was initially a five-year (2017-2022) programme, funded by an Endeavour Fund grant from the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment.
