Damage from Cyclone Gabrielle to Hawke's Bay seabed revealed
When Cyclone Gabrielle hit Hawke's Bay in February, it flooded homes, devastated communities and destroyed farm infrastructure. Less visibly - it also damaged local fisheries. Commercial fishers have been struggling since, as they navigate logs, fruit and sediment that is scattered across the seabed. But now, thanks to government recovery funding, NIWA scientists and local fishers are mapping the extent of damage. Morning Report producer Emma Ricketts reports.
