Complex Dispersal of Adult Yellowfin Tuna From the Main Hawaiian Islands [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Local availability of yellowfin tuna, Thunnus albacares, is a key economic, dietary and cultural concern for Main Hawaiian Islands (MHI) communities and insular fisheries. Consequently, interactions of inshore vs.

Length-based assessment of coral reef fish populations in the main and northwestern Hawaiian islands. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The coral reef fish community of Hawaii is composed of hundreds of species, supports a multimillion dollar fishing and tourism industry, and is of great cultural importance to the local population. However, a major stock assessment of Hawaiian coral reef

Abiotic and Human Drivers of Reef Habitat Complexity Throughout the Main Hawaiian Islands [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Reef rugosity, a metric of three-dimensional habitat complexity, is a central determinant of reef condition and multi-trophic occupancy including corals, fishes and invertebrates. As a result, spatially explicit information on reef rugosity is needed for

Population‐level impacts of natural and anthropogenic causes‐of‐death for Hawaiian monk seals in the main Hawaiian Islands [PDF]
Marine Mammal Science, 2020 AbstractIdentifying, assessing, and ranking the impact of individual threats is fundamental to the conservation and recovery of rare and endangered species. In this analysis, we quantify not only the frequency of specific causes‐of‐death (CODs) among Main Hawaiian Island (MHI) monk seals, but also assess the impact of individual CODs on the intrinsic ...

Health disparities in chronic liver disease
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract The syndemic of hazardous alcohol consumption, opioid use, and obesity has led to important changes in liver disease epidemiology that have exacerbated health disparities. Health disparities occur when plausibly avoidable health differences are experienced by socially disadvantaged populations.
