An interdisciplinary team completed a comprehensive climate change vulnerability assessment for all native Hawaiian plants (1000+ species) to address a critical knowledge gap for resource managers by identifying the change in species’ range under current and projected future climate conditions.

This report provides instructions and a framework to confront issues of climate change.

The climate assessment includes information on the changes that the climate will go through. The rest of the report separates the climate impacts by island and adaption options.

The climate assessment includes information on how water, ecosystems, biodiversity, coastal communities, and indigenous people will be affected by climate change.

This is a very short factsheet about wildfire and climate change in Hawaii.

This website, powered by Data Basin, contains 30 datasets and 2 maps that deal with climate change.

This fact sheet contains information on the causes and effects of climate change in Hawaii. Topics of interest include human health, agriculture, forests, hydrology, and ecosystems.

Warmer oceans are leading to increased coral bleaching and disease outbreaks and changing distribution of tuna fisheries. Freshwater supplies will become more limited on many islands. Coastal flooding and erosion will increase. Mounting threats to food and water security, infrastructure, health, and safety are expected to lead to increasing human migration.

The following is a summary of projected climate change impacts for six diverse yet connected sectors of the Pacific Northwest (PNW) environment: hydrology and water resources, salmon and marine ecosystems, forests, coasts, agriculture, and human health.
