CAIT Country greenhouse gas emissions trends, 1990–2013
Ministry for the EnvironmentData compiled are obtained from government reporting and complemented by a variety of non-governmental data sources. The trend was assessed using the Theil-Sen estimator and the Two One-Sided Test (TOST) for equivalence at the 95% confidence level.

Trends in ozone concentrations, 1978–2017
Ministry for the EnvironmentNIWA supplied ozone data in two forms, with different starting dates: - measurements made using a Dobson spectrophotometer (number 72), from 1987 - data assimilated from satellite measurements recalibrated against the global Dobson network, from 1978. NIWA takes measurements using the Dobson spectrophotometer 72 under clear-sky, direct sunlight conditions...Created 2 February 2020 • Updated 3 March 2025 -
Particulate matter 2.5 seasonal trends, 2011-2020
Ministry for the EnvironmentParticulate matter (PM) comprises solid and liquid particles in the air. PM2.5 particles have a diameter less than 2.5 micrometres. They can be inhaled and deposited deep in the lungs where air-gas exchange occurs. Short- and long-term exposure to PM2.5, even at low levels, is linked to respiratory and cardiovascular disease, and increased risk of...Created 1 December 2021 • Updated 3 March 2025 -

Sulphur dioxide concentrations, 2008–17
Ministry for the EnvironmentSulphur dioxide (SO2) is a highly reactive gas formed when fuels containing sulphur, such as coal or petrochemical products (including high-sulphur ship fuel), are burned. It is also produced from industrial processes such as superphosphate fertiliser production and smelting sulphur-containing metal ores. Geothermal and volcanic gases are the main natural...Created 2 February 2020 • Updated 3 March 2025 -
Trends in global production of ozone depleting substances, 1986–2015
Ministry for the EnvironmentOzone in the stratosphere is destroyed in a catalytic reaction with a range of chemical species (mainly CFCs) that are emitted through human activities. The emission of these chemicals is closely related to the amount of the chemicals that are produced. The Montreal protocol helps the UNEP collect information on the production of ozone depleting...Created 2 February 2020 • Updated 3 March 2025 -
Trends in greenhouse gas concentrations at Baring Head, 1972–2016
Ministry for the EnvironmentWe report on GHG concentrations in ‘clean air’ measured at Baring Head, near Wellington. These measurements give us a good idea of global concentrations and help us infer long-term impacts on ocean acidity, temperature, sea level and glaciers.

Ground-level ozone concentrations, Auckland, 2001–16
Ministry for the EnvironmentGround-level (tropospheric) ozone (O3) exists at a natural background level but is also produced when nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds from vehicle emissions, petrol fumes, industrial processes solvents, and other human-made sources react in the presence of sunlight. It is the primary component of photochemical smog. Ozone also occurs...Created 2 February 2020 • Updated 3 March 2025 -

Forest carbon stocks trends, 1990–2015
Ministry for the EnvironmentNew Zealand’s indigenous and exotic forests absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere through photosynthesis and store the carbon as biomass and in the soil. On average, more than twice as much carbon per hectare is stored in New Zealand’s mature indigenous forests than in exotic forests planted for wood production. Regenerating indigenous forests...Created 2 February 2020 • Updated 3 March 2025
