1 Kāhuna Nānā Uli Climatology & Meteorology Kālaianiau (climatology) were kahu with important roles in Hawaiian society. Using their observational skills, detailed moon calendars predicting weather, tides, ocean conditions and weather phenomena were created. These observations and predictions were used in understanding farming and fishing cycles. Names for climate zones, rains and winds were recorded in writing and used to describe patterns and places. The practice of Kālaianiau is also extremely important in sailing and ocean activities. Climatologists (Kanaka Kālaianiau) study the atmosphere s physical characteristics, motions, and processes. The best known application of this knowledge is forecasting the weather or meteorology (Kilo `ōuli i ke au o ka manawa). Climatologists attempt to identify and interpret climate trends, understand past weather, and predict today s weather. As our planet continues to change, these scientists learn from the past to help us prepare for the future.
2 Meteorologist (Weather) Manage the marine, aviation, and fire weather programs, and serve as the Region's Warning coordination Meteorologist. Implements plans and procedures to improve community preparedness for high impact events including management of verification, StormReady and TsunamiReady programs, and outreach, as well as possible participation in regional storm assessment teams. Promotes warning, watch, and forecast collaboration with NWS field offices and National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP). Leads the development and management of the science program within the Region. Ensures the effective integration of scientific research into operations. Bachelor's or higher degree with major study in Meteorology, atmospheric science, or other natural science major that included at least 24 semester (36 quarter) hours of credit in meteorology/ atmospheric science.

3 Meteorologists (Climate & Human Health) Prepare air quality forecasts using climatological data, historical data trend analysis, and current weather data (e.g., meteorological data, weather service observations, weather discussions; surface and upper air analysis and charts; satellite image interpretation; county and regional air quality and meteorological data, and atmospheric structure analysis). Gathers and analyzes data to identify meteorological situations and models that represent air pollution situations. BS in Meteorology or associated degree.
