Abstract:
This report investigates the feasibility and affordability of producing algae-derived biofuel in Hawaii for military aviation. The authors evaluated methods for cultivation of algae, investigated the processes necessary to locally refine bio-oil into bio-kerosene, researched the environmental impacts of cultivation and refinement facilities in Hawaii, and studied the resultant cost per gallon of bio-kerosene production. Based on the current state of technology and the proposed system of systems architecture, this report estimates that bio-kerosene can be produced for $8.00 - 22.87/gal, indicating that although this system is technically feasible, it is unlikely to be affordable at current fuel prices without ongoing subsidy or further technical innovation.

Abstract:
Hawaii has lost significant numbers of native flora and fauna resulting from introduced grazing animals, invasive flora, fire and a loss of habitat due to urbanization and agricultural use. Scientists believe that protecting these plants can be achieved by eliminating or reducing threats to native ecosystems, generating and maintaining genetic back-up and by outplanting. The Endangered Species Act and Acts 73 and 236 (State Law requiring the use of native Hawaiian plants in State funded projects) were created to protect rare and common native plants and increase the populations and public awareness of these plants. Two surveys and case studies were conducted to determine if and why landscape architects in Hawaii use native Hawaiian plants in their planting plans and to compare use in the public and private sectors. The findings show that the majority of landscape architects use native Hawaiian plants in their planting plans as a result of Acts 73 and 236. Unavailable plant material, unestablished maintenance requirements and difficulty selecting plants for a site are constraints faced by landscape architects that may inhibit their use of native plants.

Abstract:
Hawaii has always been characterized by complex geo-political activities. Located between two major modern superpowers, Continental US and Japan, it is home of one of the world’s most influential community of citizens of Japanese descent. Language and culture preservation are pursued through physical and non-physical infrastructures and the degree of involvement that these activities produce stand way beyond that of a minority. They extend to the general population and, on a bigger scale, also influence the cultural and economic relationships with Japan. The purpose of this thesis is to understand if language loyalty towards Japanese in Hawaii can be considered a key factor in the development and sustainment of the islands’ successful educational, cultural and touristic model and its benefits. The importance of this proposal is shown by the fact that it could lead to a series of sociolinguistic challenges that could be useful to understand the relationship between minority status and benefits for society as a whole. For this research I propose a quantitative and qualitative analysis on the Japanese spoken in Hawaii through official data and with emphasis on case studies considered relevant for their language-based activities on the islands. I will then link these language loyalty efforts with what can be considered benefits in order to prove the positive effects that they are producing for the whole Aloha state.

Janssen, Savanah. "Haole Like Me: Identity Construction and Politics in Hawaii." Chapman University Digital Commons, 2019. https://digitalcommons.chapman.edu/english_theses/12.

Full text
Abstract:
Haole is a contested, multi-faceted word in Hawaii. It generally means “foreigner,” or “white person.” It is used to refer to both tourists, and haoles like me, or those who are born and raised in Hawaii. In either case, it is always negative, referring to something “other” and really, colonial. Paraphrasing rhetorician Kenneth Burke, this thesis analyzes how this word “works in the world,” and from there, explores how identity, culture, and belonging are constructed through language. The essential questions become: are culture and identity constructed and performed, through language, tradition, and cultural engagement? Or is some blood content or ethnicity warranted to claim cultural belonging, and in this case, a Hawaiian identity? The method for this research began with seven interviews with people from Hawaii—a mix of haoles, hapa (mixed race) people, and ethnic Hawaiians—followed by the analyzing of these interviews, and ending with my personal engagement with these findings autoethnographically. Writing this thesis has changed how I see my own identity in Hawaii. I have used this autoethnographic method to share this transformation, explore it, and through it, mimic the in-flux nature of identity construction and language at large. I see this thesis as fluid and subject to change; as a jumping off point for future research on an otherwise “silent” topic, silent in that people in Hawaii do not openly discuss this issue; as the beginning of a necessary dialogue on what it means to be haole, what it means to be Hawaiian, and the nature of identity and cultural construction at large.

The island of Kaho'olawe is a desert island in the Romantic sense: it is unapproachable and unsettleable, yet always an object of desire. Waterless, used for military target practice, cleaned up, and being replanted, the island requires an architecture that acknowledges and aids the continual re-making of the site. This project is an infrastructure--physical and programmatic--for connection and access to Kaho'olawe; in certain locations, the infrastructure manifests itself as architectural gestures, shelters for people who come to the island. The infrastructure is for people and plants, inscribing continual change on different scales of time and space. The architecture consciously makes and records traces, and the traces in turn are remade by subsequent visitors and rearrangements of the architecture.

Abstract:
Hawaii est un nom qui signifie une topophilie. Ce lieu peut être lu comme un géosymbole des archétypes spatiaux que sont le paradis et l'île (tropicale). Il s'agit d'un lieu utopique, un ailleurs idéalisé, actualisé par la pratique du tourisme et les valeurs sociales qu'elle porte. Sous le nom Hawaii a été fabriqué un palimpeste territorial compliqué, devant beaucoup à des réalités pré-touristiques. La mise en tourisme a pris appui au milieu du XIXe siècle sur Honolulu qui était le lieu le plus urbain, pour se diffuser ensuite vers Waikiki, propulsé de manière irréversible vers l'urbanité touristique à partir des années 1920. Malgré la transformation urbanistique du lieu, le hula, le surf, et les sociabilités cosmopolites ont été maintenus, en se diversifiant. Waikiki apparaît alors comme une Cité idéale. C'est une edge city au bord du vide océanique, valorisé symboliquement par et pour sa limite concrète rassemblant la diversité et faisant circuler l'identité

Full text
Abstract:
Studies of the evolution of hotspot swells, mantle plumes, and Hawaiian basalts are presented in three parts in this dissertation. In part 1, the evolution of mid-plate hotspot swells are simulated numerically as an oceanic plate rides over a hot, upwelling mantle plume. The transient heat transfer equations, with time- and space-dependent boundary conditions, are solved in cylindrical coordinates. Geophysical data are used to constrain the models. Formation of the Hawaiian swell requires a mechanism of convective thinning of the lithosphere. The models constrain the Hawaiian heat source to have a maximum anomalous temperature of 250-300°C, and a perturbing heat flux 5-6 times the background value. On the other hand, the Bermuda swell is likely produced by heat conduction due to weakness of the heat source. In part 2, an analytic model of axisymmetric mantle plumes is presented. Plume parameters beneath the lithosphere, which are constrained from the swell models, are used to infer the plume source regions. The Hawaiian plume likely originates near the core-mantle boundary, but other hotspots may have shallower sources. Chemical plumes are much narrower than thermal plumes because of low chemical diffusivity in the mantle. For mantle plumes driven by combined thermal-chemical diffusion, the chemical signature of the source regions may only be observed near plume centers. Finally, melt generation and extraction along the Hawaiian volcanic chain are discussed in part 3. As a part of the plate moves over the heat source, melting largely takes place in the region where the lithospheric material is engulfed and swept away by the flow of the heat source. At least three mantle components must be involved in the melt generation: the plume material, the asthenosphere, and the engulfed lithospheric material. Significant amount of melts may also come from direct melting of the upwelling plume at depths below the initial plate-plume boundary. Melt extracts continuously from an active partial melting zone of 10-20 km thick, which moves outward as heating and compaction proceed. The models explain quantitatively the general characteristics of Hawaiian volcanism as the result of plume-plate interaction.

Abstract:
The thesis examines, first, the juridicial nature of the right to self-determination as a human right, evolving primarily from the nationalist feelings of a group of people. The American and French Revolutions are examples of external and internal self-determination, respectively, developing from the nationalist feelings. Second, an examination has been undertaken of the basic reasons for a claim to the right to self-determination, out of which unequal treaties and forceful annexation have been argued to be the most important. Third, it has been submitted that the rights to self-determination and to resistance are intertwined, and that the right to resistance matures when all peaceful means of restoring the rights of a group of people fail. Fourth, the whole discussion of the right to self-determination and resistance is applied to Hawaii, which was annexed by the United States through a coercive and unequal treaty in the late nineteenth century. Thus, the thesis examines the validity of the Treaty of Annexation and supports the idea that native Hawaiians have a right to self-determination under international law, and never gave up their right to remain independent. Finally, the thesis recommends some measures to be adopted in order for native Hawaiians to regain their lost independence.

Full text
Abstract:
Traditional fecal indicator bacteria such as fecal coliform, E.coli and enterococci have been shown to be unreliable indicators of the hygienic quality of recreational waters under tropical conditions. One of the major reasons for considering these bacteria as ineffective indicators of water quality in warm, tropical regions is that they are consistently found in natural environments (plants, soil, water) in the absence of any significant contamination of these environments. Since preliminary studies conducted in Hawaii had indicated soil as the major environmental source of elevated concentrations of these bacteria in environmental waters, the aim of this study was to focus on the soil environment to specifically address two assumptions made by regulatory agencies in using fecal bacteria as indicators of water quality: first, there should not be an environmental source of these indicator bacteria unrelated to sewage or fecal matter contamination, and second, the indicator bacteria do not multiply in the environment. To determine the validity of these two assumptions under tropical conditions in Hawaii and possibly other tropical locations, various experiments were conducted. The major findings are as follows. 1) Analysis of soil samples collected from various locations representing major soil groups on the island of Oahu showed that fecal indicator bacteria are naturally found in most of the soil environments, indicating that the fecal bacteria have adapted to the soil conditions to become part of soil biota. 2) Evidence was obtained to show that the soil contains adequate nutrients to sustain the populations of these bacteria. 3) Growth and multiplication of fecal indicator bacteria in natural soil was dependent on available nutrients (particularly carbon), moisture and competing microorganisms. In conclusion, tropical soil conditions are suboptimal for the multiplication of fecal indicator bacteria. Consequently, these bacteria in natural soil conditions will probably grow and multiply sporadically when conditions are relatively optimal. Although concentrations of fecal indicator bacteria in soil represent only a small fraction of the microbiota, their counts are significant enough in numbers not only to impact the quality of recreational waters but also to nullify two of the assumptions used in the application of recreational water quality standards. Thus, there is a need for an alternate and more reliable indicator of water quality in Hawaii and other tropical locations.

Full text
Abstract:
Early contact period studies of first intercultural interactions are important for understanding both traditional pre-contact society and the changes brought about by culture contact. Using documentary records kept by early Euroamerican visitors, the sociolinguistic technique of interactional analysis was employed to identify and analyze specific Euroamerican descriptions of intercultural exchange interactions during early contact period Hawai'i (1778-1819). Statistical analyses revealed clear and consistent differences in the reported exchange experiences of high and low status individuals from both cultures. In the majority of the seven hundred and one (701) events, high status individuals from both cultures interacted together or low status individuals from both cultures interacted together. Interactions with mixed high and low status interactants rarely were reported. High status interactions were described in more detail than were low status interactions, and high status interactants were associated much more frequently with the rarer or less common aspects of exchange than were low status interactants. This was true for type of exchange, nature of exchange (whether mediated or direct), complexity of event description, and both Euroamerican and Hawaiian exchange goods. Narrator and voyage characteristics exhibited similarly distinct status associations. The early historic period was not a homogeneous or monolithic period. All major aspects of exchange events demonstrated simple diachronic change, and many were significant under more powerful statistical analysis as well. Some temporal variations were due to changes in narrator characteristics, particularly purpose of voyage. Other changes reflected shifting methods of control by both Euroamerican and Hawaiian high status individuals as well as the consolidation of power by high status Hawaiian ali'i. Mediated events were especially good indicators of these developments. A complementary analysis of thefts revealed clear status distinctions between low status Hawaiian thieves, low status Euroamerican victims, and high status Hawaiian agents of return. These descriptions indicated that thefts were neither numerous nor particularly important. Thus, interactional analysis provided an alternative to anecdotal ethnohistoric analysis. At the same time, it demonstrated the importance of analyzing collections of ethnohistoric documents in order to assess the variation (and the meaning of that variation) both within and between the individual documents.

Full text
Abstract:
Wind patterns in the Pacific Ocean fluctuate seasonally, annually, and decadally, resulting in changes in the dispersal of volcanic smog (vog) across the Hawaiian Islands. A variety of synoptic-scale weather patterns can affect the Islands, creating variability in the direction and intensity of wind patterns. Recent changes in wind profiles were analyzed to identify possible patterns that could influence and increase the dispersion of vog over time on Hawai’i Island and the other Hawaiian Islands to the northwest. Historically, Northeast Trade Winds prevailed for much of the year, shifting vog into the Pacific Ocean southwest of Hawaii and away from the state’s principal population centers, but Northeast Trade Winds have shown a 20+% reduction over the past several decades. An increase in the southerly source of prevailing wind increased the frequency and intensity of vog and its impacts on the environment and health and well-being of people across the Islands.

Abstract:
The purpose of this focused ethnographic study was to describe the patterns of a good death held by elderly Japanese Americans living in Hawaii. Eighteen "healthy active" elderly Japanese Americans were interviewed individually. In addition, supplementary data, such as interviews with experts and field observations were collected for triangulation of the data. Four themes were derived from 1224 keywords, 56 categories, and 13 patterns. These were: being a burden to the family, process of life and death, individual views on death, and Japanese culture in Hawaii. Being a burden to the family was the largest concern in the participants' idea of dying a good death. Having secure financial resources were key for adequate preparation. The elderly Japanese Americans believed that suffering at the end-of-life should be avoided in order to achieve a good death. Their concept of suffering included: unmanageable pain, being ill for a long time, and being bedridden. Several participants preferred a sudden type of death because they would not have to suffer and not be burdens their family. Contentment in life was also an important aspect of a good death. There was a common belief that the way a person lived was connected with the way he/she died. A number of the participants preferred to die in their own home. Hospitals and retirement homes were other alternatives for the place of death. Individual views on death contributed to establish the concept of good death among elderly Japanese American participants. They shared similar attitudes toward death which were a part of life and inevitable. These attitudes were influenced by religious beliefs and past experiences with death. Different generations of elderly Japanese Americans had different views. The Shin-Issei (first generation who immigrated after World War II) and the Nisei (second generation) held more Japanese views compared to the Sansei (third generation) who were more acculturated. Although the Japanese American parents and children might have different views on life and death, the importance of close family relations and family support was passed on to younger generations.

Abstract:
The aim of this work is to explore the printed Hawaii shirt through material investigations in search of new print meetings. A vital step for this investigation was to develop the classic Hawaii- prints and motives in mixed media. Followed by exploring alternative printing techniques such as transfer printing, laser cutting and knitting in different materials to reach new expressions yet keeping a clear reference to the Hawaii shirt. The intention of this work was to investigate how the Hawaii shirt with its classic print could interact with the mind and body of the wearer. Furthermore, to question the informal rules of wearing a Hawaii shirt with a starting point in Umberto Eco’s theories about epidemic self-awareness. The motive of this work is to critically look at the society today, with a focus on consumerism, foreign travel and tourism and the expression of it, with the Hawaii shirt as a symbol of these things. Based on the assumption of the Hawaii shirt being a tacky souvenir that tourists bring back home from their holidays. This work show new expressions of the printed Hawaii shirt through innovative print meetings. This work also proposes alternative ways of wearing a Hawaii Shirt.

Este estudo centraliza-se no conhecimento da situação sócio-cultural, política, laboral e religiosa das ilhas de Sandwich, ou ilhas havaianas no século XIX, aquando da chegada a este território insular de levas de portugueses destinadas ao trabalho braçal nas plantações de cana-de-açúcar. A evolução política de uma monarquia hereditária, a dinastia Kamehameha, para uma monarquia constitucional, passando pelo derrube da mesma, incluindo uma curta passagem por uma república até à anexação do território pelos Estados Unidos da América, períodos estes pelos quais os imigrantes portugueses tiveram que atravessar. O reinado de Kalakaua, o primeiro monarca reinante a visitar os Estados Unidos da América, foi o primeiro a realizar uma viagem de circum-navegação. Na sua passagem pela Europa, o régulo realiza uma visita oficial a Portugal, onde procede a conversações com o Rei D. Luís para a assinatura de um tratado de comércio e amizade que iria estabelecer as relações diplomáticas entre os dois países, assim como regulamentar a emigração de Portugal para o Hawaii. Analisa-se a importância do consulado português em Honolulu, após a Convenção Provisória de 1882, assim como o trabalho desenvolvido pelo cônsul António de Sousa Canavarro, o qual nos dá uma panorâmica da comunidade portuguesa que na altura se ia fixando nas ilhas havaianas. Caracteriza-se a emigração que desde Portugal continental, a Madeira, os Açores e Cabo Verde partia para aquele território insular, numa longa viagem de vários meses, e aí se instalava, inicialmente com um contrato de trabalho de três anos. A integração da comunidade portuguesa na sociedade havaiana trouxe muitas transformações, quer a nível sócio-cultural quer religioso. Era a maior comunidade europeia e caucasiana; contudo, não considerada branca no Hawaii. O grupo católico maioritário enraizou-se em festas e cultos religiosos muito fortes. A adaptação de parte do grupo ao protestantismo - através de um grupo de exilados da Madeira seguidores do missionário protestante Dr. Kalley, ex-residente no Funchal, perseguido e expulso da Madeira por motivos religiosos -não foi tão pacífica, foram confrontados com insultos e animosidade por parte dos católicos. Os casamentos inter-raciais são uma marca da comunidade portuguesa no Hawaii, assim como um legado na área da música, com a introdução do cavaquinho nas ilhas, conhecido na actualidade por ukulele, na culinária, e nas festas religiosas do Espírito Santo. __ ABSTRACT: This work is a study of the sociopolitical, cultural, labor, and religious situation of the Sandwich lslands, also known as the Hawaii lslands, in the XIX century at the time of the arrival to the archipelago of a great number of Portuguesa immigrants contracted to work in the sugar-cane plantations. Special attention shall be placed on the political evolution of a hereditary monarchy, the Kamehameha Dynasty (1810-1893), into a constitutional monarchy (October 8, 1840) and its eventual demise (January 24, 1895), only to resurface, though short-lived, as a republic (1894-1898). Portuguesa immigration occurred all along Hawaiian history, including the latter period, when the islands were eventually annexed by the United States of America (July 7, 1898), as the U.S. Territory of Hawaii. King Kalakaua (1874-1891) was the first reigning Hawaiian monarch to visit the United States of America, and the first Hawaiian ruler to travel around the world. ln his trip through Europe, Kalakaua made an official visit to Portugal, carrying out talks with the King D. Luís (1861-1889) in order to sign a treaty of commerce and friendship, thus establishing diplomatic relations between the two countries as well as regulating emigration from Portugal to Hawaii. ln this work I shall also analyze the importance of the Portuguesa Consulate in Honolulu after the Provisional Convention of 1882, as well as the work of António de Sousa Canavarro, the first Portuguesa General Consul to the archipelago, thus being able to provide an overview of the Portuguesa community at this time of early settlement. The main core of the study is an analysis of the mass emigration from Continental Portugal, Madeira, the Azores, and Cape Verde (until 1975 under Portuguesa rule), to Hawaii: after a long journey of several months, these Lusophone speakers and, almost all of them, Portuguesa nationals, arrived and settled in Hawaii, initially with a three-year contract. The integration of the Portuguesa community in Hawaiian society has brought many changes to the islands, culturally, socially, and religiously. lt was the biggest European and Caucasian community; yet, in Hawaii the Portuguesa were considered white. Being mostly Catholic, the Portuguesa expressed their religion outwardly, especially when it carne to religious festivals. The adaptation of part of this apparently cohesive Portuguese/Portuguese-speaking community to Protestantism-as in the case of a group of exiles from Madeira (ca. 1846-1854), followers of Dr. Robert Reid Kalley (1809-1888), a Scottish physician and Presbyterian missionary to Madeira who was persecuted and eventually expelled from the Portuguesa archipelago in 1846-was not so peaceful: though not on Portuguesa soil any longer, they were confronted with insults and animosity by some of their Catholic compatriots. The inter-racial marriages are a hallmark of the Portuguesa community in Hawaii, as well as a legacy in music, with the introduction of the cavaquinho or braguinha, a small Portuguesa four string guitar, was introduced in the islands when the Portuguesa labors carne to work in the cane fields in 1878, known nowadays for ukulele. Some cooking specialties and the religious festivals of the (Espírito Santo) Holy Ghost are still a Portuguesa legacy to the Hawaii.

Abstract:
Travel and tourism are concepts that date back to 3000 B.C. with globalization extending possibilities of travel to people across the world. Addressing stakeholder concerns is especially important in promoting the development of sustainable tourism contributing to the protection of Earth's natural resources and long-term sustainability of tourism businesses through collaboration and participation. This qualitative case study incorporated a strategic stakeholder management framework, focusing on exploring strategies that Hawaii tourism industry leaders use for increasing stakeholder participation in sustainable tourism development. The population consisted of individuals across 6 categories of Hawaii tourism industry stakeholders identified as visitors, residents, government or public servants, representatives of academic institutions, tourism business owners, and special interest groups. Data triangulation occurred through semistructured interviews of 10 participants, comprehensive review of archival data and government statistical data, and organizational documents. Data analysis included both manual and multiple systemic coding for each sources of data. Three thematic strategies emerged: establishing relationship management, consistent and effective communication, and partnership programs with a variety of stakeholders. Within establishing relationship management, participants articulated conflict resolution as the most critical and challenging aspect to successful stakeholder collaboration strategies. This research has implications for social change by offering enhancement to relationships necessary to develop sustainable tourism options, ultimately bolstering the local economy while fostering protection of natural and cultural resources.

Abstract:
Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Hawaii at Manoa, 2008.
Data was gathered by using semi-structured interviews, attending meetings and analyzing documents and other artifacts. The analysis was informed by the Social Actor Model of Lamb and Kling (2003), the Actor-Network Model developed by Latour (2005) and Callon (1986) and, to a lesser extent, the Social Movement literature (McAdam, McCarthy & Zald, 1996). Based on the evidence gathered, this study advances the concept of the emerging Hawaii Marine Stakeholder, and offers a description of how marine resource management has accommodated stakeholders. SAM was used to understand the actor, ANT to explain the network, and SM to analyze large-scale changes and mobilizations. The results offer practical implications for the development and implementation of co-management arrangements. Theoretical implications include the analytical integration of diverse approaches to understanding social action situated in the context of environmental management.
The management of marine resources is undergoing a paradigm shift, away from top-down governance by a central power interacting with an stable, limited and relatively homogeneous and isolated set of ocean users, to a field populated by dynamic, abundant, networked and heterogeneous stakeholder groups. These marine stakeholders are playing an increasingly active role in the management and regulation of the ocean resources. This shift has been partly assisted by the increased availability of information about marine resources and by the new communication and information technologies. Together, these developments allow users to become active players, giving rise to a new trend in co-management of marine resources. This research presents evidence that the term of "ocean user" is conceptually limiting and no longer viable to describe ocean stakeholders' ability to participate in co-management arrangements.
This study employed a qualitative approach across three research sites in Hawaii (Waianae, Hanauma Bay, and West Hawaii) to understand the dynamics of selected marine stakeholders' gathering and use of information, formation of groups and alliances, framing of issues, and affecting regulatory changes. The West Hawaii case study, via the West Hawaii Fisheries Council, yielded the richest data for the research. The Council exemplifies a successful integration of the local community in the management of local marine resources.
