3 PURPOSE? WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO LEARN TODAY? #1 Learn about the Climate Change issues of Hawaii. #2 Specific sectors: water, natural resources, society impacts. #3 Compare the issue-lists: Hawaii vs. the Pacific Northwest.
4 COMPARE HAWAII vs. PNW HOW DOES EACH STATE DIFFER? OREGON: WASHINGTON: IDAHO: HAWAII: Purple (50/50%) Purple (55/45%) Red (35/65%) Blue (60/40%) Valley/mountain Valley/mountain Valley/mountain Valley/mountain Ocean/cont. climate Economy: Agri./fish, Timber/wood, Technology, Tourism/recreation Ocean/cont. climate Economy: Aircraft, software, retail-starb, Costco, REI, Eddie B.; Real Estate; Agriculture & wine; Tourism/recreation Continental climate Economy: Sci.&Tech, Timber/wood/paper, Agriculture-potatoes, Tourism/recreation Trop./arid/temp climate (4-8 zones!) Economy: Tourism/recreation, Military, Agriculture/seeds
5 THE INTERVIEW DR. RYAN PERROY, Associate Professor, University of Hawaii (at Hilo), Department of Geography
6 Q#1: What is the proportion of climate change research at the UH academic/theoretical vs. practical/applied? UH/Manoa more theoretical, UH/Hilo more applied work PI-CSC:
7 Q#2: What climate change issues have the State of Hawaii deemed a priority for UH study? Priority issues: Sea-Level Rise, climate vulnerability, carbon emissions Solutions: green energy (2050 goal), NE Lab work ocean energy, biofuels, solar (active & passive).
8 Q#3: What climate change issues are UH students concerned about? Top issues: Eroding coastlines, sea-level inundation, salt-water intrusions Context: local island specific
9 Q#3: What climate change issues are UH students concerned about? Top issue: Eroding coastlines a big problem for most Pacific islands Plate Tectonic Subsidence local impacts?
10 Q#3: What climate change issues are UH students concerned about? Top issues: Sea-level Rise and coastal flooding specific island impacts?
11 Q#4: What climate change issues and projects are you and your students working on? Top issues: coasts, Sea-Level Rise. Interface with Hawaiian ideas. Projects: Hawaii County Planning Office land permits- beach set-back limits (40-ft). Fish Ponds restore worn-out ones, build new ones, build food security. Agriculture how to deal with drought periods, intense rainfall events. Invasive species potential impacts. Cesspools Sea-Level Rise, water quality, and F&W habitat impacts. Goal: self-sufficiency across all sectors of Hawaii society
12 Q#5: What about Hawaii s fisheries, its management, and climate change? Rebuild Fish Pond culture major aspect of traditional Hawaii. Ocean Acidification HI oyster farm hatcheries helping out WA farms! Prof. Maria Haws: commercial shellfish hatchery research mitigation tool
13 Q#6: Has anyone looked at climate change impacts to Hawaii s streams? New research trends: Lower streamflow (e.g.,usgs retrospective studies). Flashier rainfall events and floods will become more common. Higher flow vulnerability, more water uncertainty agriculture impacts?
14 Q#7: What about basic research on Climate Variability ENSO and PDO? The UH School of Oceanography has been the lead entity: Studies of the basic physics of tropical atmospheric and ocean coupled systems on seasonal and longer timescales, notably the El Niño phenomenon and the Asian monsoon circulations, and predicting future variability through advanced numerical modeling have a long and distinguished history within SOEST.
15 Q#8: Climate change and native Hawaiians their issues? Top: Eroding coastlines, sea-level inundation, salt-water intrusions, King-tides
16 What can be done for Hawaii? Solutions are scientific and political and local
17 HAWAII Climate Change issues: Hawaii vs. PNW? What are your Questions? Thank You ALOHA!
