Река Эрети (бывшая река Орети ) - одна из главных рек Саутленда, Новая Зеландия , ее длина составляет 170 километров (110 миль). Река была определена как Important Bird Area по BirdLife International , потому что, на протяжении большей части своей длины, он поддерживает разведение колонии из черных клюва чайка . [1] [ не удалось проверить ] [2]
Министерство культуры и наследия Новой Зеландии переводит Эрети как «место ловушки» . [3] В ноябре 2019 года название реки было официально изменено на река Шрети. [4]
The Ōreti has its headwaters close to the Mavora Lakes between Lake Te Anau and Lake Wakatipu, and flows south across the Southland Plains to its outflow into Foveaux Strait at the southeastern end of Oreti Beach. En route, it runs through the towns of Lumsden and Winton, before passing through the city of Invercargill, close to the river's estuary.
На последней части реки, вокруг города Инверкаргилл и устья реки к югу от города, она известна как Новая река , название, которое иногда встречается для обозначения всей реки. Он разделяет это устье с несколькими реками меньшего размера, в первую очередь с рекой Вайхопай .
The New River Estuary, which meets the end of the Ōreti River before it reaches the sea, is in decline. Recent science reports show that regions of the upper estuary are under stress and showing eutrophication. There is excessive macroalgal growth including sediment quality decline and high concentrations of chlorophyll-a in the water column. Chlorophyll-a was used as an indicator of eutrophic conditions in the water column, and is a colour pigment present in many types of algae that can give an indication of how much algae is present in the water column.[5]
The Invercargill Rowing Club relocated to the river in 1958.[6][7]
