For centuries, Molokai was revered as a place where religious rituals were performed by powerful kahuna, or priests. One of the most famous, Lanikaula, is said to be buried in a grove of kukui trees near the island's eastern tip (below right). To make lamp oil, Hawaiians traditionally took nuts from the kukui, now a symbol of Molokai.

  • Ethnohistory of Puna
    Research in Action: Ethnohistory of Puna: Davianna Pōmaikaʻi McGregor Praxis: exercise or practice of an art, science or skill. Praxis distinguishes Ethnic Studies from the long-established disciplines of the social sciences. Ethnic Studies faculty are committed to placing research at the service of the community and challenging students to examine and analyze contemporary issues of concern to Hawaiʻi’s ethnic communities from diverse perspectives. The clash between the beliefs, customs, and practices of Hawaiian descendants of Pele (Hawaiian goddess of the volcano) and the developers of geothermal energy is one of the issues which drew upon the resources of Ethnic Studies faculty and students.1 The issue evolved as the federal and state governments partnered with private corporations to clear the largest remaining lowland rainforest in Hawaiʻi for geothermal wells and power plants. In response, Hawaiians filed several civil suits, organized religious ceremonies in the volcanic rainforest, produced documentary films and joined with environmentalists in public protests. A key turning point in the struggle was a ruling by the US federal court that an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) was required for the project to proceed. Where proposed development projects funded by the federal government affect native peoples, new historic preservation laws mandated the inclusion of a cultural impact study in the EIS. Thus, for the first time since the passage of the new laws, a cultural impact study was conducted for native Hawaiians in Hawaiʻi. The First Cultural Impact Study on Native Hawaiians University of Hawaiʻi faculty from the Ethnic Studies Department, the Department of Urban and Regional Planning and the School of Social Work were contracted to conduct the study.2 The team drew upon the individual skills and experiences of their faculty and developed a multi-method approach for the study.

  • 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.

People who live on or near active volcanoes can benefit greatly from clear, scientific information about the volcanic and seismic hazards of the area. This booklet provides such information for the residents of Hawaii so they may effectively deal with the special geologic hazards of the island. Identifying and evaluating possible geologic hazards is one of the principal roles of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and its Hawaiian Volcano Observatory. When USGS scientists recognize a potential hazard, such as an impend­ ing eruption, they notify the appropriate govern­ ment officials, who in turn are responsible for advising the public to evacuate certain areas or to take other actions to insure their safety.

  • 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.

  • Mechanism of the 1975 Kalapana, Hawaii, Earthquake Inferred from Tsunami Data
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 104, NO. B6, PAGES 13,153-13,167, JUNE 10, 1999 Mechanism of the 1975 Kalapana, Hawaii, earthquake inferred from tsunami data Kuo-Fong Ma Institute of Geophysics, National Central University, Chung-Li, Taiwan Hiroo Kanamori Seismological Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena Kenji Satake Seismotectonics Section, Geological Survey of Japan, Tsukuba, Japan Abstract. We investigated the source mechanism of the 1975 Kalapana, Hawaii, earthquake (Ms= 7.2) by modeling the tsunamis observed at three tide-gauge stations, Hilo, Kahului, and Honolulu. We computed synthetic tsunamis for various fault models. The arrival times and the amplitudes of the synthetic tsunamis computed for Ando's fault model (fault length= 40 km, fault width= 20 km, strike= N70°E, dip= 20°SE, rake= -90°, fault depth= 10 km, and slip= 5.6 m) are - 10 min earlier and 5 times smaller than those of the observed, respectively. We tested fault models with different dip angles and depths. Models with a northwest dip direction yield larger tsunami amplitudes than those with a southeast dip direction. Models with shallower fault depths produce later first arrivals than deeper models. We also considered the effects of the Hilina fault system, but its contribution to tsunami excitation is insignificant. This suggests that another mechanism is required to explain the tsunamis. One plausible model is a propagating slump model with a l m subsidence along the coast and a 1 m uplift offshore. This model can explain the arrival times and the amplitudes of the observed tsunamis satisfactorily. An alternative model is a wider fault model that dips l 0°NW, with its fault plane extending 25 km offshore, well beyond the aftershock area of the Kalapana earthquake.

    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.

  • Northwestern Hawaiian Islands/Kure Atoll Assessment and Monitoring Program
    Northwestern Hawaiian Islands/Kure Atoll Assessment and Monitoring Program Final Report March 2002 Grant Number NA070A0457 William j. Walsh1, Ryan Okano2, Robert Nishimoto1, Brent Carman1. 1 Division of Aquatic Resources 1151 Punchbowl Street Rm. 330 Honolulu, HI 96813 2 Botany Department University of Hawai`i Mānoa Honolulu, HI 96822 2 INTRODUCTION The Northwest Hawaiian Islands (NWHI) consist of 9,124 km2 of land and approximately 13,000 km2 of coral reef habitat. They comprise 70% of all coral reef areas under U.S. jurisdiction. This isolated archipelago of small islands, atolls, reefs and banks represent a unique and largely pristine coral reef ecosystem. The islands support millions of nesting seabirds and are breeding grounds for the critically endangered Hawaiian monk seal and threatened green sea turtle. The reefs include a wide range of habitats and support a diverse assemblage of indigenous and endemic reef species, many of which have yet to be described. Kure Atoll, located at the northwestern end of the NWHI chain (approximately 28º 25’ N latitude and 178º 20’ W longitude) is the northernmost atoll in the world. The atoll is located 91 km northwest of Midway Islands and nearly 1,958 km northwest of Honolulu. It is a nearly circular atoll with a diameter of 10 km (6mi). The outer reef is continuous Figure 1. IKONOS satellite image of Kure Atoll 3 and almost encircles the atoll’s lagoon except for passages to the southwest (Fig. 1). An emergent rock ledge consisting primarily of coralline algae and algally bound and encrusted coral is present along some sections of the reef crest.
