Marine Science Investigations at the Hawai‘i Institute of Marine Biology

The program will take place at the Hawai‘i Institute of Marine Biology at Moku o Lo‘e (Coconut Island) in Kāne‘ohe Bay, part of the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology at UH Mānoa. Students will embark on our learning vessel, Ka Noelo Kai, from He‘eia Kea Boat Harbor to Moku o Loʻe (approximately 15 minutes each way, daily).

This week-long summer program provides an engaging, hands-on learning opportunity for students interested in marine science research. Weather permitting activities include a science walking tour of the island, in-water coral reef transects and data analyses, and lab experiments highlighting marine bioacoustics, neuroethology, and coral reef biodiversity.

Delivery mode: Classroom, Laboratory and Field.
