Today in #NREMseminar, @AimeeStorms spoke with us on the sediment issue facing the #alawai canal due to poor drainage. She created a #monitoring protocol to help identify sediment load & sources to alleviate input; For it costs $21M to dredge the canal. https://t.co/V8qbqP6oUn

What is Biocultural Management? @kupa_aina of #NREMseminar shares her amazing project of working with #community to gather ecological, cultural, archaeological knowledge of ʻOhikilolo and Keaʻau. Biocultural management can restore #abundance to the land!

'Ōlelo no'eau: Huli ka lau o ka ʻamaʻu i uka, nui ka wai o kahawai.When the leaves of the ʻamaʻu turn toward the upland, it is a sign of a flood.

@earlybirdignite @Vaibhavi_27 So far my favorite!

Droughts impact Hawaiian #ecosystems in many ways! Knowledge of drought conditions are vital for resource managers who deal with #wildfire management in #HI. Melissa Kunz of #NREMseminar shares how drought data can be better communicated.

#estuaries are a crucial functioning part of ecosystems in Hawaii! @ellaenvironment talked in our #NREMseminor how she has a plan to characterize the estuaries on Maui based on previous work done by @uhmanoa grad students! https://t.co/o4Jll62mZD

Non-native #invasive plants are threatening native species and environments. @cldemattos did an excellent job presenting on this issue at Papahana Kuaola during #NREMseminar

[anitanrem @AnitaNREM]

For her NREM capstone project, @cldemattos will work with @papahanakuaola to develop information on the range of #invasivespecies and potential impacts in order to improve management practices and help their goal of restoring native ecosystems #NREMseminar

‘Alae ‘ula is an endangered Hawaiian waterbird - by fostering pilina (relationships) between community members and this endangered bird we may be able to #mālama momona (cultivate abundance)! @FlowerFloating #NREMseminar

'Alae'ula are one of the last remaining native waterbirds in #HI. @FlowerFloating of #NREMseminar explores the important relationships between this #endangered bird and people, in order to help protect this species from extinction. #Conservation

Collective ike is power. Melissa kunz, an MS of @NREM_UH, will be creating materials that will house the collective knowledge of those most familiar with the effects of #drought & #wildfires. Quite important as #ClimateChange dries out portions of #HI.

Names are important. @Vaibhavi_27 explained how defining what a #feral #cat is, proper legislation can be created to manage their populations. For cats are carriers of toxoplasmosis- deadly to the #endangered monk seal.

For her capstone proposal, @ellaenvironment will be mapping out the #estuaries of #Maui. This framework will deepen the knowledge of the cultural and ecological importance of estuaries in Hawai'i.

#Antarctica is a hotspot of #climatechange. Drone imagery from a #UAV can provide land surface imagery, topography data, plant vegetation, and surface temperatures! Read about what might happen to Antarctica if temperatures continue to rise #NREMseminar

[Lansing Y Perng @LYPerng]

Antarctica experienced a record-setting high temperature last summer. Dr. David Beilman and Derek Ford (@Island_UAV) use a UAV (drone) to explore #climatechange by mapping spatial and temporal differences in temperature and vegetation.

What does a research trip to Antarctica look like? Collaboration and teamwork! @geog_uhm professor and graduate student @Island_UAV share about their trip studying plants and soils as the Antarctic quickly "greens" due to climate change #NREMSeminar

At today's #NREMseminar, Dr. David Beilman & Derek Ford took us on a journey to #Antarctica to see how she is responding to the effects of #ClimateChange. The plants are experiencing growing in sunlight conditions similar those in Hawai'i experience.

At today’s #NREMseminar, my awesome labmate, David Lewis, shares an #invasivespecies (Miconia) management simulation. High #resourcemanagement investment leads to the greatest returns and the highest benefit-cost ratio!

[Ella @ellaenvironment]

Today in #NREMseminar David Lewis shared his research on the highly #invasive Miconia in Maui. Adaptive management is needed to combat future #invasions in Maui. Check out more from him and the Oleson lab at https://t.co/d6NZckrrel
