  • Photographing the Islands of Hawaii
    Molokai Sea Cliffs - Molokai, Hawaii Photographing the Islands of Hawaii by E.J. Peiker Introduction to the Hawaiian Islands The Hawaiian Islands are an archipelago of eight primary islands and many atolls that extend for 1600 miles in the central Pacific Ocean. The larger and inhabited islands are what we commonly refer to as Hawaii, the 50 th State of the United States of America. The main islands, from east to west, are comprised of the Island of Hawaii (also known as the Big Island), Maui, Kahoolawe, Molokai, Lanai, Oahu, Kauai, and Niihau. Beyond Niihau to the west lie the atolls beginning with Kaula and extending to Kure Atoll in the west. Kure Atoll is the last place on Earth to change days and the last place on Earth to ring in the new year. The islands of Oahu, Maui, Kauai and Hawaii (Big Island) are the most visited and developed with infrastructure equivalent to much of the civilized world. Molokai and Lanai have very limited accommodation options and infrastructure and have far fewer people. All six of these islands offer an abundance of photographic possibilities. Kahoolawe and Niihau are essentially off-limits. Kahoolawe was a Navy bombing range until recent years and has lots of unexploded ordinance. It is possible to go there as part of a restoration mission but one cannot go there as a photo destination. Niihau is reserved for the very few people of 100% Hawaiian origin and cannot be visited for photography if at all. Neither have any infrastructure. Kahoolawe is photographable from a distance from the southern shores of Maui and Niihau can be seen from the southwestern part of Kauai.

  • Topographic History of the Maui Nui Complex, Hawai'i, and Its Implications for Biogeography1
    Topographic History ofthe Maui Nui Complex, Hawai'i, and Its Implications for Biogeography 1 Jonathan Paul Price 2,4 and Deborah Elliott-Fisk3 Abstract: The Maui Nui complex of the Hawaiian Islands consists of the islands of Maui, Moloka'i, Lana'i, and Kaho'olawe, which were connected as a single landmass in the past. Aspects of volcanic landform construction, island subsi­ dence, and erosion were modeled to reconstruct the physical history of this complex. This model estimates the timing, duration, and topographic attributes of different island configurations by accounting for volcano growth and subsi­ dence, changes in sea level, and geomorphological processes. The model indi­ cates that Maui Nui was a single landmass that reached its maximum areal extent around 1.2 Ma, when it was larger than the current island of Hawai'i. As subsi­ dence ensued, the island divided during high sea stands of interglacial periods starting around 0.6 Ma; however during lower sea stands of glacial periods, islands reunited. The net effect is that the Maui Nui complex was a single large landmass for more than 75% of its history and included a high proportion of lowland area compared with the contemporary landscape. Because the Hawaiian Archipelago is an isolated system where most of the biota is a result of in situ evolution, landscape history is an important detertninant of biogeographic pat­ terns. Maui Nui's historical landscape contrasts sharply with the current land­ scape but is equally relevant to biogeographical analyses. THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS present an ideal logic histories that can be reconstructed more setting in which to weigh the relative influ­ easily and accurately than in most regions.

  • Hawaii's , Kaho`Olawe Island Section 319 Success Story
    Section 319 NONPOINT SOURCE PROGRAM SUCCESS STORY Restoring Native Vegetation Reduces SedimentHawaii Entering Coastal Waters Dry environmental conditions combined with a long history of human Waterbody Improved land use have resulted in severe erosion on Kaho`olawe. Much of the island has been reduced to barren hardpan, and sediment-laden runoff affects nearshore water quality and threatens the coral reef ecosystem. Efforts to minimize erosion and restore native vegetation in two watersheds on Kaho`olawe (Hakioawa and Kaulana) have reduced the amount of sediment entering the stream/gulch systems and coastal waters and have improved the quality of coastal waters, coral reef ecosystems and native wildlife habitat. Problem The island of Kaho`olawe, the smallest of the eight main Hawaiian Islands, is approximately 7 miles southwest of Maui. Kaho`olawe lies within the rain shadow of the volcanic summit of Maui. The island has a unique history. Evidence sug- gests that Hawaiians arrived as early as 1000 A.D. Kaho`olawe served as a navigational center for voyaging, an agricultural center, the site of an adze quarry, and a site for religious and cultural ceremo- nies. More recently, Kaho`olawe was used as a penal colony, a ranch (1858–1941), and a bombing range Figure 1. A lack of vegetation leads to excessive erosion by the U.S. Navy (1938–1990). The island was also on Kaho’olawe, which in turn home to as many as 50,000 goats during a 200-year causes sediment loading into period (1793–1993). Throughout the ranching period, adjacent marine waters. uncontrolled cattle and sheep grazing caused a substantial loss of soil through accelerated erosion.

  • Lei Pūpū 'O Ni'ihau
    FEATURING lei pūpū ‘o ni’ihau This Valentine’s Day, gift your special someone their very own piece of Hawai’i from the island of Ni’ihau. Known as “The Forbidden Island,” Ni’ihau is home to a particular group of precious shells that have been used in the customs and traditions of native artisans. Ni’ihau’s highly skilled artisans have developed a shell lei due to the fact that the drier climate of the island is not suit- able for fresh flower leis, unlike the other islands. The art of making these highly intricate leis,lei pūpū o’ Ni’ihau, over generations, has created a fine art so valuable that its craft is protected by law. Producing specialty jewelry that sells as a luxury, a Ni’ihau Shell Lei can be worth as much as $40,000 USD. Various factors determine the price of one of these leis, such as the style of the lei (casual or dressy), color, size and type of individual shells, and of course, the quality of the stringing and length of the lei as a whole. Stringing is one of the major factors, as it is the most tedious and time consuming; each small, precious shell is individually sewn to create these intri- cate Ni’ihau Shell Leis, requiring a high level of skill, technique and patience from an artisan. Retailers working directly with Ni’ihau artisans: Oahu Nā Mea Hawai’i (Ward Warehouse in Honolulu) Bishop Museum Shop Pacifica (Honolulu) Honolulu Academy of Arts Gift Shop (Honolulu) Kauai Waimea Canyon General Store/Forever Kauai (Kekaha) Ni’ihau Helicopters (Kaumakani) Mariko (Hanapēpē) JJ Ohana (Hanapēpē) Kauai Fine Arts (Hanapēpē) Hawaiian Trading Post (Lāwa’i) Kaua’i Museum Gift Shop (Līhu’e) Kauai Gold (Coconut Marketplace) Maui Maui Ocean Center (Ma`alaea) Big Island Harbor Gallery (Kawaihae) A $25,000 multi-strand lei, made of momi and kahelelani shells.

  • The Hawaiian Islands –Tectonic Plate Movement
    Plate Tectonics Worksheet 2 L3 MiSP Plate Tectonics Worksheet #2 L3 Name _____________________________ Date_____________ THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS – TECTONIC PLATE MOVEMENT Introduction: (excerpts from Wikipedia and http://pubs.usgs.gov/publications/text/Hawaiian.html) The Hawaiian Islands represent the last and youngest part of a long chain of volcanoes extending some 6000 km across the Pacific Ocean and ending in the Aleutian Trench off the coast of Alaska. This volcanic chain consists of the small section Hawaiian archipelago (Windward Isles, and the U.S. State of Hawaii), the much longer Northwestern Hawaiian Islands (Leeward Isles), and finally the long Emperor Seamounts. The Leeward Isles consist mostly of atolls, atoll islands and extinct islands, while the Emperor Seamounts are extinct volcanoes that have been eroded well beneath sea level. This long volcanic chain was created over some 70 million years by a hot spot that supplied magma, formed deep in the earth’s interior (mantle), that pushed its way through the earth’s surface and ocean cover forming volcanic islands. As the Pacific Plate was moved by tectonic forces within the Earth, the hot spot continually formed new volcanoes on the Pacific Plate, producing the volcanic chain. The direction and rate of movement for the Pacific Plate will be determined with the help of the approximate age of some of the Hawaiian volcanoes and distances between them. Procedure 1: 1. Using the data provided in Table 1 , plot a graph on the next page that compares the age of the Hawaiian Islands and reefs to their longitude. 2. Label the island (reef) name next to each plotted point.

  • West Maui Region (Lahaina Aquifer Sector)
    WEST MAUI REGION (LAHAINA AQUIFER SECTOR) This is a synopsis of work in progress for the Lahaina aquifer sector for further public input. Analysis is ongoing and the information below has not been reviewed by the Board of Water Supply, County Council or the State Commission on Water Resource Management. Preliminary findings are subject to change based on input and further analysis. PLANNING BOUNDARIES The Water Use and Development Plan (WUDP) allocates water to land uses and water users consistent with the Maui Island Plan. The WUDP uses hydrologic units for presentation and analysis consistent with state requirements for updating the plan. Unlike other areas of Maui, the West Maui Community Plan and Lahaina aquifer sector boundaries are the same, and the various public water systems are contained within their boundaries. The region also encompasses the Lahaina and Ka‘anapali moku and underlying ahupua‘a as discussed later. WATER RESOURCES IN THE LAHAINA AQUIFER Climate, hydrology, geology and human activities affect the water cycle and the surface and ground water systems which are interconnected. The fresh ground water system contains dike-impounded water in the mountainous interior part of the aquifer and a freshwater lens floating on saltwater; fresh water generally moves from the dike- impounded water body to the freshwater-lens system in volcanic rock and then to the ocean. Most of the public water supply in west Maui is pumped from this freshwater lens. Most streams on West Maui Volcano receive groundwater discharge from the dike-impounded water body, but much of this water is diverted for offstream uses.

Introduction PURPOSE OF THE PLAN In 2019, the Hawaiian Islands received a record high of 10.4 million visitors. While this brought in $17.75 billion in total visitor spending to Hawai‘i’s businesses, generated $2.07 billion in taxes, and supported 216,000 jobs statewide, it also put pressure on some of our destinations and communities. This situa- tion is not unique to Hawai‘i. Other popular destinations—from Venice, Italy to Machu Picchu, Peru, to Kyoto, Japan—have also felt the negative efects of tourism, which not only impacts residents’ quality of life but also the quality of the visitor experience. 2 MAUI NUI DESTINATION MANAGEMENT ACTION PLAN 2021–2023 In recognition of these challenges, the Hawai‘i Tour- The idea of “regenerative tourism” gained momentum ism Authority (HTA), in partnership with the coun- in 2020, as the global COVID-19 pandemic increased ties and the respective visitor bureaus, initiated the awareness of tourism’s opportunities and vulnerabili- process of developing community-based Destination ties.
