Fieldguides
32 GSNZ fieldguides have
been converted to pdf format and are posted below for ready
reference. Such guides often contain useful syntheses of
information that may not be published elsewhere. Proper
citation is encouraged and, where appropriate, users should
contact the authors for permission to cite
material.
It is the responsibility
of individuals to familiarise themselves with hazards and
safety requirements on any fieldtrip, and also to obtain
appropriate permission to enter property (possession of a
guide confers no privilege or exemption!).
Maybe one day we'll put up
a whizzy webmap to show the fieldguide locations. But for
now, they are listed by conference.
