10. Mapping Cumulative Human Impacts

13. Global Cumulative Impact Scores 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Millions of km 2 41% of the ocean is orange or red less than 4% is blue How does Hawaii look?

16. 1. Mapping Habitat Ten ‘ecozones’ mapped from NOAA benthic cover satellite data at 100m resolution

18. Survey results: Selkoe et al. 2008 Human Stressors to NWHI Vulnerability Weights Global origin Pacific-wide origin Local (NWHI) origin

19. Threat Rankings: 13 datasets included in NWHI map Human Stressors to NWHI Vulnerability Weights

21. Acidification UV Temperature: Disease Temperature: Bleaching Climate Change Data

22. Bottomfishing Pounds all fish taken summed over 1996-2002 at 0.25 degree resolution, excluding <2 boats per cell. Dataset courtesy of Reggie Kokubun of the DAR

23. Final Map of Cumulative Impact

24. New Rankings

25. Atoll Close-ups Midway Maro Pearl & Hermes French Frigate Shoals 10 Km 10 Km 10 Km 10 Km P&H: Highest mean scores for both SST metrics Midway: Lowest mean impact score of atolls Maro: Highest mean impact score of atolls FFS: highest mean scores for UV, acid, sea level, shipping
