S.U.R.F. Presentations

 Our students are stepping up to help make O‘ahu more resilient to climate change impacts and future disaster scenarios through resilience research which spans across multiple disciplines from environmental engineering, to ethnobotany, from ecology, to community-based participatory approaches and more! CERENE supports undergraduate student research in both the social sciences and biophysical sciences and our students can be found at Kapiʻolani Community College as well as the University of Hawaii at Mānoa.
