The University of Hawai’i Sea Grant College Program’s Hawai’i and Pacific Islands King Tides Project is asking the public to help document the King Tides, to better understand tomorrow’s impacts from sea-level rise and other coastal hazards.
King Tides provide a window into our future because today’s high tides are tomorrow’s average sea levels. Photos, observations, date, time, and location can be submitted to kingtide@hawaii.edu.
