Awarua Plains (original) (raw)
The Awarua Plain is a large area of wetland to the east of Bluff, New Zealand. Covering an area of around 600 km², the plain stretches for 35 kilometres along the coast of Foveaux Strait. This stretch of coast includes the peninsula of Tiwai Point, Awarua Bay, the Waituna Lagoon, and Toetoes Bay. The Mataura River is the major river responsible for the presence of the Awarua Plain; along with the Ōreti River, it is a remnant of the rivers from the Ice Ages that formed the Southland Plains (Murihiku). In addition, several small streams enter Foveaux Strait along this stretch of coast, mainly via Awarua Bay and Waituna Lagoon.

| dbo:abstract | Die Awarua Plain ist ein großes Feuchtgebiet östlich von Bluff mit einer Fläche von etwa 600 km² und eine der Southland Plains. Sie erstreckt sich über 35 km an der Küste der Foveaux Strait im äußersten Süden der Südinsel Neuseelands. Zu diesem Küstenabschnitt gehören die Halbinsel Tiwai Point, Awarua Bay, die Waituna Lagoon und Toetoes Bay. Die Ebene entstand hauptsächlich aus Schwemmland des Mataura River. Zusammen mit dem Ōreti River ist er ein Rest der eiszeitlichen Flüsse, die Ebenen der Südinsel bildeten. Mehrere weitere kleine Flüsse münden an diesem Küstenabschnitt in die Foveaux Strait, vor allem in die Awarua Bay und Waituna Lagoon.
