The Natural and Unnatural Histories of Johnston and Palmyra Atolls

October 16, 5:30pm - 7:30pm
Mānoa Campus, AgriSci Building Room 214,

Some of the least visited sites on Earth, these islands, reefs, and pelagic waters aren’t suitable for sustained human habitation, which has insulated wildlife there but also invited people to propose them as sites for activities that would be inappropriate closer to human population centers. Seabird ecologist Beth Flint and marine journalist Susan Scott, who both have extensive experience at these remote outposts, describe some of the exploitative, destructive, wacky, and scientifically important uses suggested, and sometimes executed, there… and how wildlife has held on and thrived.
