Research by a former Manager Climate Corps student leads to another study that analyzed the levels of pathogens entering Hilo Bay under varying weather conditions. This study was recently published in Water Environmental Research.
Sustained engagement of community groups and organizations resulted in the creation of the Kealakekua Bay Community Action Plan (CAP), a novel path forward toward realignment with long-term community resilience and adaptation mechanisms that have safeguarded the bay’s cultural and natural heritage for centuries.
