| Molokini, Hawaii's Island Marine Sanctuary |
| by Mike Severns and Pauline Fiene |
 |
| A marine preserve like no
other, Molokini's richness is apparent to anyone with an interest in the sea and its
creatures. A tiny volcanic cone, it sits a few miles of Maui's leeward shore and enjoys
superior water quality. This book is the results of thousands of dives made by Mike
Severns and Pauline Fiene. Both biologists with a love for the ocean and its inhabitants,
Mike and Pauline have observed and photographed Molokini's varied habitats and made
numerous discoveries about the animals that live within them. Deep water animals and
behaviors rarely seen by divers, giant open ocean animals that visit Molokini
occasionally, coral spawning in astounding synchrony once or twice a year...these are just
a few of the scenes described and photographed in this remarkable book |

| Hawaii's Humpback Whales |
| by Gregory D.
Kaufman and Paul H. Forestell |
 |
| Hawaii's Humpback Whales is
an informative and richly illustrated description of the humpback whale and its behavior.
This book is unique in providing the opportunity to learn about one species of whale in
sufficient degree to recognize its behaviors and displays, and perhaps even to interpret
the significance of many of them. This fine volume includes a behavior "key"
describing activities and contexts in which they occur; detailed information on where and
how to watch for whales; regulations governing human activity in the vicinity of whales;
what to do in the case of stranding; and a discussion of the future management and
conservation of humpback whale populations. |
