This site was developed by me, Glenn Metzler. The website is a project I am hoping will be helpful for those looking for information on Hawaiʻi’s natural world and biodiversity and getting beyond what can be found with a simple internet search. There is much information not readily found.My intention is to keep improving and update the site as new information becomes available.
I am a biologist/ecologist with a broad range of experience having worked for an environmental consulting firm, state government, and the federal government and now with a few projects under my own business. I have worked in many areas of the U.S. mainland but for the last 15 years it has been primarily in Hawaiʻi.
I am a coordinator for the all-volunteer Manoa Cliff Forest Restoration site. I am also currently the scientific editor for the journal of the Hawaiʻi Audubon Society, https://www.hawaiiaudubon.org/.
If you would like to contact me my email is metzeco@gmail.com. Any feedback on the website including errors please let me know.
Note: Hawaiian diacriticals, which would have required extensive edits, were not used in this website, other than for Hawaiʻi or when they were within a quote from another source.
