基于与土地及其资源的长期密切联系，Māori对当地自然灾害有了详细的了解。这包括记录过去灾难性灾害事件的口述历史和传统，指定高灾害风险地区的地名，以及告知与环境变化有关的活动的安全性和可行性的环境指标。Māori环境知识是关于自然灾害的一个宝贵但被忽视的信息领域，它提供了一个独特的专门知识来源，可以为新西兰当代的自然灾害管理和减轻作出贡献。
Abstract Based on a long and close association with the land and its resources, Māori have developed a detailed knowledge of local natural hazards. This includes oral histories and traditions that record past catastrophic hazard events, place names that designate areas that are high hazard risk, and environmental indicators that inform about the safety and viability of activities linked to changes in the environment. Māori Environmental Knowledge is a valuable and neglected area of information on natural hazards and provides a unique source of expertise that can contribute to contemporary natural hazards management and mitigation in New Zealand.
