Abstract
Since 1995, eruptions of geysers at Orakeikorako have been instrumentally recorded several times a year. The aim is to provide quantitative information about the performance of most active geysers there and to show any variations of activity over successive years. Graphs of data are provided and show results through time. Analyses of recordings show changes through time but without any clear overall trends. To date no meteorological records have been collected at Orakeikorako although such information may indicate factors that could directly relate to variations in geyser performance..
