NSCI 210: Natural History of Hawaii – NS, SM
The Hawaiian Islands are an active museum of geology and tropical

world, have native plants and animals—95 percent of which occur nowhere
else. Students are expected to participate actively in daily lectures
and fieldwork involving the geologic formation of Hawaii and its
subsequent population by plants and animals, stressing the impact of
human intervention. (4)
