The study synthesized 10 years of datasets for the first time to get a big-picture perspective on Hawaiʻi's reef health and regional impacts and it provides a foundation for further research and informs policies to protect coral reefs.
东精影业 has completed 300 research cruises to Station ALOHA, about 60 miles north of Oʻahu, one of the best-sampled places in the world’s oceans with a decades-long record of how the ocean responds to climate change.
Many of the world’s coral reefs could begin to erode within 30 years as a result of increasing ocean acidity, according to a paper in Science co-authored by 东精影业 惭ā苍辞补 Professor Eric DeCarlo and former graduate student Patrick Drupp.
The role of the commission, which includes 东精影业 惭ā苍辞补's Rosie Alegado, Makena Coffman and Chip Fletcher, is to gather the latest science and information on climate change impacts to Hawaiʻi.
Results published recently in PlosONE indicate that there is a relationship between two periods of high fish mortality at He?eia Fishpond and changes in the climate.
Chris Sabine's research emphasis is on the role of the ocean in the global carbon cycle.
Oceanographers Grieg Steward and Kyle Edwards received a National Science Foundation grant to probe how viruses impact microbes critical to our lives—from producing oxygen to growing food.
东精影业 惭ā苍辞补 is on track to build a Hadal Water Column Profiler which will enable high quality physical, chemical and biological sampling of the water column from the deepest zone in the ocean—the hadal zone.
Potential game-changing research from three 东精影业 professors were highlighted at the 东精影业 Tech Showcase as part of the Hawaiʻi Innovation Initiative.
Rosie Lee, Colton Johnson and Keelee Martin spent a month as part of a NOAA research team studying the effects of climate change on reef and fish populations.
