Congrats to our 2024 EPʻIK Summer high school student & teacher cohort! Ten students and one teacher from across the islands of O‘ahu and Hawai‘i came together for a one-week Earth Science summer camp. We learned about Hawaiian volcanoes, the Hawaiian water cycle, geology of Hawaiian beaches, ocean exploration, and the solar system. Field trips to explore the water cycle at Sumida Farms, the NOAA Inouye Research Center, Waikiki beaches, Windward O‘ahu geology, and a tour of the UH/SOEST campus and laboratories, were a highlight of the summer program.
