The initial census of the Pu'u Wa'awa'a bird sanctuary plot was completed in April 2012. We will begin instillation of a climate tower in August 2012.
Spring 2012 - Annual Resurvey of Plots Completed
The HIPPNET team has recently completed their annual resurvey for the Laupahoehoe, Palama Nui, and Mamalahoa plots. The next resurvey is scheduled to start in the Fall of 2012.
In the summer of 2009 we completed our first census of the Laupahoehoe and Palamanui plots and are working on data analysis and publications.
Support for the project has been provided by NSF EPSCoR (Grant No.
0554657) as well as the USDA Forest Service, the University of
Hawaii, and the University of California, Los Angeles (NSF Grant No. 0546784).
