  • Insights and Regrets of a Foreign Geoscientist in the Pacific Islands
    geosciences Article O cei na Vulavula? Insights and Regrets of a Foreign Geoscientist in the Pacific Islands Patrick D. Nunn School of Law and Society, Australian Centre for Pacific Islands Research, University of the Sunshine Coast, Maroochydore, QLD 4558, Australia; [email protected] Abstract: From over three decades of close contact with Pacific Islands geoscience, the author reflects on key issues (what he wished he had known earlier) about the nature of islands, their landscapes and their peoples. Experience elsewhere in the world rarely prepares you for the Pacific, from its youthful and often tectonically unstable landscapes to the understandings of its inhabitants, which are sometimes time-consuming and difficult to access yet frequently illuminating. Mysteries abound in Pacific geoscience, often in places as difficult to access as they ever were, yet which have the potential to inform global ideas about earth-surface evolution. Geoscience research and enterprise remain largely foreigner-driven in the Pacific Islands, which is often anathemic to sustainability, privileging ideas that are uncritically assumed to be shared by their peoples. An opportunity exists for Pacific peoples to own the geoscientific knowledge and potential of their islands. Keywords: Pacific; knowledge; island geology; traditions; last interglacial; sea-level change; island flank collapse; lithospheric flexure; radiocarbon dating Citation: Nunn, P.D. O cei na Vulavula?

  • From Vunidogoloa to Kenani: an Insight Into Successful Relocation
    CLOTHILDE TRONQUET From Vunidogoloa to Kenani: An Insight into Successful Relocation “Today, we launch the first project in Fiji to save an entire village from the rise in sea levels caused by climate change. It is real. It is happening now.” (Bainimarama, 2014). ith this forceful introduction, Commodore Josaia Voreqe Bainimarama, Prime Minister of Fiji began his opening speech on the 16th January 2014 for the inauguration of the brand-new village where the residents of Vunidogoloa were about to move, 8 years after their initial request to relocate. This was a day for celebration, with colorful balloons, traditional outfits and ceremonial rituals, the Vunidogoloa people welcomed the Prime Minister, offi- cials and journalists that had come to officially open theirkenani (promised land) (PM WBainimarama opens Vunidogoloa Village Relocation Project - 2014, 2014). A far cry from the negatively connoted representations of environmental migration as being emergency-driven and compelled by humanitarian concerns, the Vunidogoloa relo- cation is the result of a well-thought-out, multilateral and participative process that lasted nearly a decade. Climate change is a crucial issue for the 30 000 Pacific Islands, especially the smallest and low-lying ones. The intrinsic characteristics of small islands make them highly vulnerable to climate change, sea-level rise and extreme events. Floods, land- slides, coastal erosion and storms are expected to increase in frequency and intensity, as a consequence of sea-level rise, thus putting at risk housing, facilities, infrastruc- ture, and also crops and vegetated wetlands. Most of the settlements and infrastruc- ture are located in coastal areas: the IPCC estimates that more than 50% of the popu- lation of the islands in the Pacific lives within 1.5 km of the shore, exacerbating the adverse effects of climate change.

  • Biophysically Special, Unique Marine Areas of FIJI © Stuart Chape
    BIOPHYSICALLY SPECIAL, UNIQUE MARINE AREAS OF FIJI © Stuart Chape BIOPHYSICALLY SPECIAL, UNIQUE MARINE AREAS OF FIJI EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT Marine and coastal ecosystems of the Pacific Ocean provide benefits for all people in and beyond the region. To better understand and improve the effective management of these values on the ground, Pacific Island Countries are increasingly building institutional and personal capacities for Blue Planning. But there is no need to reinvent the wheel, when learning from experiences of centuries of traditional management in Pacific Island Countries. Coupled with scientific approaches these experiences can strengthen effective management of the region’s rich natural capital, if lessons learnt are shared. The MACBIO project collaborates with national and regional stakeholders towards documenting effective approaches to sustainable marine resource management and conservation. The project encourages and supports stakeholders to share tried and tested concepts and instruments more widely throughout partner countries and the Oceania region. This report outlines the process undertaken to define and describe the special, unique marine areas of Fiji. These special, unique marine areas provide an important input to decisions about, for example, permits, licences, EIAs and where to place different types of marine protected areas, Locally-Managed Marine Area and tabu sites in Fiji.

  • Kadavu Group
    © Lonely Planet Publications 211 Kadavu Group Sitting sleepily 100km south of Viti Levu, the ruggedly beautiful Kadavu Group offers a slice of wild and untamed Fiji, with few visitors and even fewer amenities. There is one small town here and next-to-no roads. As your plane from the main island touches down on a KADAVU GROUP tiny airstrip surrounded by luminescent sea, volcanic peaks and intense forest, you’ll feel as if you’re embarking upon something special. Your flight will likely be followed by a long, and sometimes bumpy, boat ride to your resort of choice, but the feeling of seclusion and the stunning, almost-prehistoric landscape make it more than worthwhile. Snaking its way around the islands, the Great Astrolabe Reef is justifiably renowned in diving circles. People come from all over the world to sample its underwater delights. Hand- some stretches of long, sandy beach and sheltered coves ring the islands’ perimeters. In the interior you’ll find all manner of bird life, including the colourful Kadavu musk parrot, thriving in an impossibly green rainforest that’s ripe for scrambling up hillsides, splashing about under waterfalls and kayaking through mangroves. The group is made up of several islands including Kadavu (the country’s fourth-largest island), Ono, Galoa and Yaukuve Levu. Kadavu is irregular in shape and is almost split into three by deep bays along its length. At its southern tip sits its highest peak, the impressive, 838m-high Nabukelevu (Mt Washington). There are some 70 villages in the Kadavu Group, all relying largely on subsistence agri- culture and the export, to the main island, of local produce.
