Book Description
Excerpt from Stream Channel Modification in Hawaii: Part D, Summary Report The Hawaiian stream environment is like nothing in mainland America. The inhabited islands are all of recent volcanic origin, with small land area, dominated by steep slopes of porous, igneous rock, and lacking extensive coastal plains. Climate is dominated by prevailing oceanic trade winds that shed rainfall mostly between elevations of a few hundred and about 2500 meters on the windward sides of the high islands. This results in great local variability in climate and stream locations, with a strong concentration of streams on windward slopes. Streams tend to have steep gradients, rocky channels, heavy vegetative canopy cover, and great temporal variability in discharge. A natural result is frequent and considerable flooding of the narrow plains in the lower reaches. These plains are the locations of extremely rapid recent residential and commercial development brought about by the State's explosive growth in population and tourism. Extensive stream channelization has resulted over a very short period of time (most has been performed within the last 2 decades).
