This course is designed to present Hawaii as a place where Hawaiian culture was a striving culture before the arrival of Captain James Cook at Waimea, Kauai on January 20, 1778 and the landing at Kealakekua Bay, Hawaii on January 17, 1779. After the first European contact, major changes occurred in the Hawaiian culture. When the Native Hawaiians came in physical contact with Cook’s men, the Hawaiians were introduced to human diseases which they had little or not immunity for and this started a drastic decline in the native Hawaiian population.

References……………………………………………………………………………………10 2 Mission Statement: KA PONO’s mission is to attain EPA fishable and swimmable status for all waters on the Island of Kaua’i by reducing turbidity, total nitrogen and total phosphorus and maintaining a safe and clean environment for recreation. Historical Background: Before Hawai’i was proclaimed the fiftieth state of the United States in 1959, it was a monarchy (Lawrence, 1959). Kaua’i's first settlers are believed to be polynesians like the Marquesans, then Tahitians. Kaua’i is the only island King Kamehameha did not conquer in his quest to unite all of the Hawaiian islands, but in 1810, King Kaumualii, the King of Kaua’i, became the governor after making a peaceful resolution to unite all islands with Kamehameha. All monarchs before and after Kaumualii and Kamehameha ran their political and economic systems based on watersheds (EPAT, 1999). Each king named chiefs to rule these watershed- based political and economic districts; each chief was in charge of all of the flora, fauna, and people within that district. Districts of land, called ahupua’a, were delegated to chiefs and konohiki.

  • Chapter 6 Awiwi! Awiwi! O Pea O`E I Ka Wai “Quick, Quick Or the Waters Will Stop You” Stream Flooding and Mass Wasting
    Chapter 6 Awiwi! Awiwi! O pea o`e I ka wai “Quick, quick or the waters will stop you” Stream Flooding and Mass Wasting I have sometimes sat on the high bank of a streamlet, not more than fifteen to twenty feet wide, conversing with natives in the bright sunshine, when suddenly a portentous roaring, like the sound of many waters, or like the noise of the sea when the waves thereof roar, fell upon my ears, and looking upstream, I have seen a column of turbid waters six feet deep coming down like the flood from a broken milldam. The natives would say to me, 'Awiwi! Awiwi! O pea o`e I ka wai' – “Quick quick, or the waters will stop you.” -Rev. Titus Coan “Life in Hawai„i”1 It‟s no fluke that one can usually predict Hawai„i‟s daily weather forecast: “Today‟s weather will be partly cloudy, with passing showers windward or mauka, and temperature‟s ranging from the mid-70‟s to mid-80‟s.” This balmy climate provides one more reason why Hawai„i‟s moniker is “paradise.” While the warmest daytime temperatures in summer infrequently exceed the mid- 90s, the chilliest nighttime temperatures in winter rarely fall below the mid-50s. The difference in average daytime temperature at sea level throughout the year is only around 11oF, making the Hawaiian Islands home to Earth‟s most temperate climate. But as you have learned by now, weather in paradise has a volatile side. Two seasons dominate the Hawaiian climate: summer (kau wela) and winter (ho„oilo).

Cangialosi National Hurricane Center Derek Wroe Central Pacific Hurricane Center 4 November 2013 NOAA GOES-15 SATELLITE IMAGE OF TROPICAL STORM FLOSSIE AT 0130 UTC 27 JULY 2013. Flossie was a tropical storm that formed in the eastern North Pacific, and then moved into the central Pacific basin where it produced gusty winds and heavy rains over the Hawaiian Islands. Tropical Storm Flossie 2 Tropical Storm Flossie 25 – 30 JULY 2013 SYNOPTIC HISTORY The genesis of Flossie appears to be partly associated with a tropical wave that moved off the west coast of Africa on 9 July. The wave traveled westward across the Atlantic basin at 15 to 20 kt, and moved over Central America on 18 July. Thunderstorm activity gradually increased near the wave axis during the next several days while it moved south of Mexico. On 24 July, when the disturbance was located well to the south-southwest of the Baja California peninsula, the thunderstorm activity consolidated and gained organization; however, data from the European Space Agency’s Advanced Scatterometer (ASCAT) indicated that the system did not have a well-defined center of circulation at that time. Visible satellite imagery and microwave data indicated that the circulation became better defined late on 24 July, and it is estimated that a tropical depression formed by 0000 UTC 25 July, when it was located about 850 n mi west-southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula. The depression strengthened to a tropical storm 6 h later.
