  • Albatross Or Mōlī (Phoebastria Immutabilis) Black-Footed Albatross Or Ka’Upu (Phoebastria Nigripes) Short-Tailed Albatross (Phoebastria Albatrus)
    Hawaiian Bird Conservation Action Plan Focal Species: Laysan Albatross or Mōlī (Phoebastria immutabilis) Black-footed Albatross or Ka’upu (Phoebastria nigripes) Short-tailed Albatross (Phoebastria albatrus) Synopsis: These three North Pacific albatrosses are demographically similar, share vast oceanic ranges, and face similar threats. Laysan and Black-footed Albatrosses nest primarily in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands, while the Short-tailed Albatross nests mainly on islands near Japan but forages extensively in U.S. waters. The Short-tailed Albatross was once thought to be extinct but its population has been growing steadily since it was rediscovered in 1951 and now numbers over 3,000 birds. The Laysan is the most numerous albatross species in the world with a population over 1.5 million, but its trend has been hard to determine because of fluctuations in number of breeding pairs. The Black-footed Albatross is one-tenth as numerous as the Laysan and its trend also has been difficult to determine. Fisheries bycatch caused unsustainable mortality of adults in all three species but has been greatly reduced in the past 10-20 years. Climate change and sea level rise are perhaps the greatest long-term threat to Laysan and Black-footed Albatrosses because their largest colonies are on low-lying atolls. Protecting and creating colonies on higher islands and managing non-native predators and human conflicts may become keys to their survival.

    Journal of Coastal Research 00 0 000–000 West Palm Beach, Florida Month 0000 A Summary of Historical Shoreline Changes on Beaches of Kauai, Oahu, and Maui, Hawaii Bradley M. Romine and Charles H. Fletcher* Department of Geology and Geophysics www.cerf-jcr.org School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology University of Hawaii at Manoa POST Building, Suite 701, 1680 East–West Road Honolulu, HI 96822, USA [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT ROMINE, B.M. and FLETCHER, C.H., 2012. A summary of historical shoreline changes on beaches of Kauai, Oahu, and Maui; Hawaii. Journal of Coastal Research, 00(0), 000–000. West Palm Beach (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. Shoreline change was measured along the beaches of Kauai, Oahu, and Maui (Hawaii) using historical shorelines digitized from aerial photographs and survey charts for the U.S. Geological Survey’s National Assessment of Shoreline Change. To our knowledge, this is the most comprehensive report on shoreline change throughout Hawaii and supplements the limited data on beach changes in carbonate reef–dominated systems. Trends in long-term (early 1900s– present) and short-term (mid-1940s–present) shoreline change were calculated at regular intervals (20 m) along the shore using weighted linear regression. Erosion dominated the shoreline change in Hawaii, with 70% of beaches being erosional (long-term), including 9% (21 km) that was completely lost to erosion (e.g., seawalls), and an average shoreline change rate of 20.11 6 0.01 m/y. Short-term results were somewhat less erosional (63% erosional, average change rate of 20.06 6 0.01 m/y).

O' Connell, University of Hawaii Sea Grant College Program, Kauai, HI Dolan Eversole, University of Hawaii Sea Grant College Program, Oahu, HI Zoe Norcross-Nu'u, University of Hawaii Sea Grant College Program, Maui, HI KEYWORDS: shoreline setback, ordinance, erosion, coastal zone management, Kauai County, Hawaii, shoreline change In terms of private property use and coastal resource protection, in January 2008 Kauai County, Hawaii, passed one the most balanced coastal construction setback ordinances in the Country: 'The Shoreline Setback and Coastal Protection Ordinance ¹863.' To protect life, property, and preserve coastal resources the Ordinance sets procedures establishing minimum construction setbacksbased on average lot depth and long-term shoreline erosion rates being generatedby the University of Hawaii. Furthermore, the Ordinance intent is to safely site structures away from hazards, such as coastal erosion, so shoreline hardening will not be required to protect the property during its useful life. Specific listed activities are also permitted or prohibited without a variance within the setback area. The Ordinance applies to all lands that abut or are within 500 feet of the shore. To ensure broad support, variance procedures allow variations in zoning setbacks, minimum allowable buildable footprint, and shoreline setbacks,providing that under no circumstance shall the shoreline setback be less than forty feet for new dwellings, and twenty feet for rebuilding existing dwellings. Any structure approved within the setback area by variance shall not be eligible for protection by shoreline hardening during the life of the structure.

  • 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 Side Path Alternatives Report KAUAI PATH, INC. West Side Path Alternative s Report KAUAI PATH, INC. PREPARED BY: HEALTH & EDUCATION COMMUNICATION CONSULTANTS IN COLLABORATION WITH DESIGN ASSOCIATES KAUAI OCTOBER 2011 MARCH 2012 1 | Page PREPARED BY: HEALTH & EDUCATION COMMUNICATION CONSULTANTS IN COLLABORATION WITH MADE POSSIBLE WITH FUNDING FROM THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION. DESIGN ASSOCIATES KAUAI OCTOBER 2011 1 | Page FORWARD Allow me to extend my deepest mahalo and congratulations to all who worked to produce the West Side Path Alternatives Report. It is a positive step toward creating more walkable, sustainable communities on the west side of our island home. My Holo Holo 2020 vision calls for “all organizations, businesses, residents and visitors on Kauai to be part of creating an island that is sustainable, values our native culture, has a thriving and healthy economy, cares for all – keiki to kapuna, and has a responsible and user- friendly local government.” So many of our Holo Holo 2020 goals can be achieved by creating alternative modes of transportation for all communities on Kaua’i. Developing coastal, multi- modal paths are an important element in that effort. In the end, our people, our environment and our economy will benefit by putting these basic principles to work in our everyday lives. I look forward to a continuing dialogue with interested parties on the west side as we seek to create a community that is better connected, healthier and more sustainable for generations to come. Mahalo nui loa,
