  1. 🌋🌊 Deep-sea researchers from the #Ocean Exploration Trust discovered a unique "yellow brick road" formation on the Liliʻuokalani Ridge.

    Located over 1,000 meters deep, the rectangular patterns are actually fractured hyaloclastite rock. The volcanic formation helps scientists understand the #marine #ecosystems within the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument.

  2. Confabulation Episode 1: Author interview of horror author Lana Casiello

    Here is the first of three episodes where I interviewed horror author @lana_casiello. Originally uploaded in full to YouTube, I’ve decided to bring my writing world interview series, Confabulation, to other places. I’ve also decided I’ll be breaking these interviews into episodes moving forward.

    In this first episode, Lana and I discuss colonialism in Hawaii and her Hawaiian heritage. More to come in the next episodes, so stay tuned. Follow the blog if you like this Confabulation series. I interview authors, publishers, and other writerly types.

  3. #Hawaii is turning #ocean #plastic into roads to fight pollution
    An island #recycling program is designed to solve the islands’ unique exposure to discarded fishing gear, tourist waste and the #GreatPacificGarbagePatch, which engulfs the island chain every few years. To date, 90 metric tons of plastic trash have been removed from the #Pacific Ocean, and more than a metric ton of fishing nets alone have been paved into Hawaiian roads.
