  • Description:
    This white paper prepared by the University of Hawaiʻi Sea Grant College Program provides an overview of current conditions and issues related to climate change and sea level rise and their impact on land use in the Primary Urban Center (PUC) area within the City and County of Honolulu. These findings and conclusions will inform the Primary Urban Center Development Plan (PUC DP) update, currently underway. This document is one of a series of topic-specific white papers developed in preparation for the PUC DP update. The intent of this white paper is to provide a summary of key trends, hazards, and vulnerabilities​, and planning considerations related to sea level rise and climate change in Oahu’s Primary Urban Center (PUC). The paper opens with an overview of State and City climate change adaptation and mitigation initiatives relevant to the PUC. This is followed by a discussion of natural hazards, climate change trends, and projections of potential impacts for the area with a particular focus on hazards and vulnerabilities related to sea level rise. The paper concludes by exploring strategies and policy options for building resilience, adapting to climate change and sea level rise, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions through the development and implementation of an updated Primary Urban Center Development Plan (PUC DP).
