Well thats what the ref says although its a bit vague as to how the experts know. Still its not truth but citation and you have a cite. Enough refs and length is OK. Could you just check the ref that is questioned? Thanks Victuallers (talk) 19:34, 23 December 2011 (UTC)

Two refs are given for the hook fact. The NZ Herald article is brief and vague, yes, but the NIWA one gives details of their study's methods. The questioned ref only supported one of the two figures in the preceding sentence; I've added a citation for the other figure. --Avenue (talk) 01:24, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
