The Hawaiian Archipelago includes 8 major volcanic islands, islets and atolls and spanning over 1500 miles in the Pacific. It is the most isolated land mass in the world. I live and work on two of the eight major islands and fly between them weekly. I am Hawaiian 🌺

A global model compiling seabird surveys finds that 37 seabird species and around 25% of the world’s tropical seabird individuals nest on atolls, where they act as major nutrient pumps within tropical...
