    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.

    Spiders of the Hawaiian Islands: Catalog and Bibliography1

    Pacific Insects 6 (4) : 665-687 December 30, 1964 SPIDERS OF THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS: CATALOG AND BIBLIOGRAPHY1 By Theodore W. Suman BISHOP MUSEUM, HONOLULU, HAWAII Abstract: This paper contains a systematic list of species, and the literature references, of the spiders occurring in the Hawaiian Islands. The species total 149 of which 17 are record­ ed here for the first time. This paper lists the records and literature of the spiders in the Hawaiian Islands. The islands included are Kure, Midway, Laysan, French Frigate Shoal, Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, Lanai, Maui and Hawaii. The only major work dealing with the spiders in the Hawaiian Is. was published 60 years ago in " Fauna Hawaiiensis " by Simon (1900 & 1904). All of the endemic spiders known today, except Pseudanapis aloha Forster, are described in that work which also in­ cludes a listing of several introduced species. The spider collection available to Simon re­ presented only a small part of the entire Hawaiian fauna. In all probability, the endemic species are only partly known. Since the appearance of Simon's work, there have been many new records and lists of introduced spiders. The known Hawaiian spider fauna now totals 149 species and 4 subspecies belonging to 21 families and 66 genera. Of this total, 82 species (5596) are believed to be endemic and belong to 10 families and 27 genera including 7 endemic genera. The introduced spe­ cies total 65 (44^). Two unidentified species placed in indigenous genera comprise the remaining \%. Seventeen species are recorded here for the first time. In the catalog section of this paper, families, genera and species are listed alphabetical­ ly for convenience.

For centuries, Molokai was revered as a place where religious rituals were performed by powerful kahuna, or priests.

To make lamp oil, Hawaiians traditionally took nuts from the kukui, now a symbol of Molokai.

    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.

    USGS Geologic Investigations Series I-2761, Molokai and Lanai

    Molokai and Lanai Molokai and Lanai are the least populated and smallest of the main Hawaiian Islands. Both are relatively arid, except for the central mountains of each island and northeast corner of Molokai, so flooding are not as common hazards as on other islands. Lying in the center of the main Hawaiian Islands, Molokai and Lanai are largely sheltered from high annual north and northwest swell and much of south-central Molokai is further sheltered from south swell by Lanai. On the islands of Molokai and Lanai, seismicity is a concern due to their proximity to the Molokai 71 Seismic Zone and the active volcano on the Big Island. Storms and high waves associated with storms pose a threat to the low-lying coastal terraces of south Molokai and northeast Lanai. Molokai and Lanai Index to Technical Hazard Maps 72 Tsunamis tsunami is a series of great waves most commonly caused by violent Amovement of the sea floor. It is characterized by speed (up to 590 mph), long wave length (up to 120 mi), long period between successive crests (varying from 5 min to a few hours,generally 10 to 60 min),and low height in the open ocean. However, on the coast, a tsunami can flood inland 100’s of feet or more and cause much damage and loss of life.Their impact is governed by the magnitude of seafloor displacement related to faulting, landslides, and/or volcanism. Other important factors influenc- ing tsunami behavior are the distance over which they travel, the depth, topography, and morphology of the offshore region, and the aspect, slope, geology, and morphology of the shoreline they inundate.

    Vol. XXII, No. 1, August, 1975 109 Introductions for Biological Control in Hawaii, 1973 H. K. Nakao, G. Y. Funasaki and C. J. Davis STATE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE HONOLULU, HAWAII The Entomology Branch of the Hawaii Department of Agriculture has maintained a continuous program of beneficial organism introductions for many years. This paper includes a list of beneficial insects introduced for biological control during 1973, and gives notes on the status of some pests and their purposely introduced enemies. Snail Pest Control Achatina fulica Bowdich (giant African snail). Giant African snail populations remained at low levels in former high density localities on Oahu and Maui. Efforts to eradicate or contain the snail continued on the islands of Kauai and Hawaii. On Kauai, metal- dehyde bait applications were made throughout the year in localized infestations at Poipu and Wahiawa. On Hawaii, a shipment of Gonaxis quadrilateralis (Preston) from Oahu was released along the perimeter of the snail infestation in Kahaluu (Kona) in January, and an aerial bait application was made covering 65 to 70 acres, in August. Galba viridis (Quoy & Gaimard) (liverfluke snail). No recoveries have been made of Sepedon plumbella Wiedemann, S. senex Wiedemann and S. n. sp., sciomyzids introduced from Southeast Asia in 1971 to aid in the control of Galba viridis, the intermediate host of cattle liverfluke. Populations of G. viridis, however, were reported at low levels on Oahu, Maui and Hawaii and this may, in part, be attributed to the predation of Sepedon sauteri Hendel and S. macropus Walker. Weed Pest Control Lantana camara var. aculeata L.

  • 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.
