Island-wide field surveys illuminate land-sea connections in Mo'orea A massive, multi-year scientific expedition led by researchers from the University of California, Santa Barbara and collaborating institutions, including the University of Hawai'i (UH) at Mānoa, determined that land use on tropical islands can shape water quality in lagoons and that rainfall can be an important mediator for connections between land and lagoon waters.

Extensive surveys on Mo'orea show that land use and rainfall patterns significantly influence lagoon water quality, highlighting the importance of integrated land-sea management for coral reef health. doi.org/hbcrmg

A generation erased,
dreams gutted,
minds that mapped oceans,
tracked fish fleeing
warming tides.

They knew the sea’s voice,
spoke reef’s tongue,
now silenced.

Who hears the currents now?
Who watches the fish?

We bury tomorrow’s voices,
feeding today’s greed.
