Three undergraduate student research projects were jointly funded by theUniversity of Hawaii Sea Grant College Program, Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources and Aquasearch Inc, during the summer of 1997. The project topics selected were to study the Hawaiian black-lip pearl oyster, Pinctada margaritifera on the effects of overfishing and environmental degradation; the effects that fish feeding has on the coral reef of Kahekili Beach Park north of Lahaina, Maui; and the monitoring of progress of Kealia Beach Dune restoration project on Maui. Each project produced a final written report, and all students presented their results at a concluding symposium.
