This dataset provides daily WRF output for the Hawaiian Islands region for the following variables: daily rainfall (RAINNC), daily 2m temperature (TMEAN), max 2m temperature (TMAX), and min 2m temperature (TMIN) These quantities are provided for 20 WRF simulations over the time periods (1996-2005) and (2026-2035). Files are labeled based on the WRF simulation and year. (WRF 1-5 and 11-15: negative PDO phase, WRF 6-10 and 16-20: positive PDO phase). Data are also available from a federal repository upon request. Contact: casc@usgs.gov.

Hawaiʻi is home to a rich diversity of native plants, about 90 percent of which are found nowhere else in the world. However, changing climate conditions may reduce the amount of suitable habitat for native plants and contribute to the spread of invasive plant species. The goal of this project was to better understand how Hawaiian native and invasive plants will respond to climate change. Scientists focused on 10 important native and five important invasive plant species, using over 35 years of data from thousands of locations in Hawai‘i to assess the plants’ preferred climate conditions and model their likely best future habitat based on climate change projections. The resulting maps and findings provide an initial...

The Republic of Palau, a Freely Associated State of the U.S. and a global leader in ocean conservation, recently implemented the Palau National Marine Sanctuary, which closed 80% of its ocean to fishing. As offshore fish become scarcer in the domestic market, managers have begun to worry about increased harvesting pressure on already overfished nearshore environments. This pressure, in addition to stressors from land-use change, sea-level rise, and warming oceans, could threaten the food and economic security of many Palauans. However, adaptively managing stressors in an integrated way can mitigate declines and even promote recovery, while still being cost-effective, resulting in direct benefits to coastal communities....
