Building Resilience to Coastal Hazards and Climate Change in Hawaii

May 5, 12:00pm - 1:00pm
Waikiki Aquarium, 2777 Kalakaua Ave Honolulu, HI 96815

Hawaii is highly vulnerable to coastal hazards including impacts related to climate change and sea-level rise. These hazards include coastal erosion and flooding from high waves and storms. As sea-level rise accelerates and climate and ocean conditions change, it is becoming increasingly important for island communities to implement strategies that increase resilience to natural and human-induced hazards. The seminar will highlight how the University of Hawaii Sea Grant College Program is working to improve community resilience to coastal hazards and climate change.
