Cesspools as onsite sewage disposal systems (OSDS) are widespread in the Hawaiian
Islands and of concern due to their lack of primary treatment and direct discharge of …

An array of MAPCO 2 buoys, CRIMP-2, Ala Wai, and Kilo Nalu, deployed in the coastal
waters of Hawaii, have produced multi-year high temporal resolution CO 2 records in three …

Ocean carbon monitoring efforts have increased dramatically in the past few decades in
response to the need for better marine carbon cycle characterization. Autonomous pH and …

Spatial and temporal patterns of coastal microbial pollution are not well documented. Our
study examined these patterns through measurements of fecal indicator bacteria (FIB) …

Porewater was collected from highly permeable, carbonate-rich, sandy sediments at two
locations on Oahu, Hawai'i, CRIMP-2 on the Kaneohe Bay barrier reef and Ala Wai on a …

A statistical evaluation of nearly 10 years of high-resolution surface seawater carbon dioxide
partial pressure (p CO2) time-series data collected from coastal moorings around O'ahu …

To better understand the controls on the opportunistic human pathogen Vibrio vulnificus in
warm tropical waters, we conducted a year-long investigation in the Ala Wai Canal, a …

This study examines carbonate chemistry variability from 2008 to 2021 in subtropical coastal
waters adjacent to Honolulu, Hawai'i. We use surface seawater carbon dioxide partial …

Aperiodic discharge from the Ala Wai Canal near Waikiki, Hawaii is often contaminated with
naturally occurring harmful bacteria that may affect nearby beaches. Using a coupled …

Nitrogen (N) enrichment of tropical reefs can result in the dominance of invasive algae. The
invasive alga Acanthophora spicifera and the native alga Laurencia nidifica are part of a …
