Moloka‘i has great wetland restoration potential in Hawaiʻi, but most remaining sites are highly degraded. The future of several endangered waterbirds and insects relies on restoring coastal wetland habitat that is resilient under sea-level rise and coastal flooding. Currently, managers lack background data on Molokaʻi to prioritize sites for restoration. In this project, Researchers will develop a comprehensive dataset and create a prioritization plan for coastal wetland restoration. The team will work closely with project partners and stakeholders to develop a well-vetted plan to support endangered species and meeting community needs. Existing maps and spatial data about the Molokaʻi landscape will be compiled...

Fragmentation of climate change management authorities, as well as overlapping mandates between agencies, is common. This poses a particular challenge when it comes to preparing for climate change. Increasing the integration of adaptation strategies across departments will help climate change preparation work as it goes forward. Key opportunities for engagement on climate change preparations in U.S. Affiliated Pacific Islands are recommended below according to sector. For each opportunity, important government offices for engagement are provided in Chapter 8.
