[Coral-List] Massive Coral Die Off in Kauai, Hawaii

[Don Baker]

Alan:

You hit it on the nail head.  Yes indeed their is a link with regards to human sewage / waste in the same run off.  Recent pubs have well document this correlation and the disease syndromes affecting coral reefs worldwide.

Human development has always gone hand in hand with cutting costs and if a developer can get away with an inadequately sized and poorly designed, cheap waste water treatment system they will go for it.  Sure not all developers will neglect their waste components but then a good many will to cut costs.   You can especially see this blatantly throughout the Philippines when you are walking the sandy beaches in front of so-called 'beach resorts' and have to step over septic tank water draining into shallow water at low tide...with tourists splashing around and snorkeling in the same receiving water.

Caio,
Don

Kauai had record rainfall/runoff during March.  Is there a possible link 
with what is being reported there and low salinity water??
