Hawai'i Social Network Analysis

Consult these social network maps of climate change stakeholders to find collaborators or experts in different fields of study or locations in Hawai'i and the U.S.-Affiliated Pacific Islands region.

This site reports on a multi-year social network analysis project that examined communication patterns and how climate information spreads across different sectors and places in the Pacific Islands region. By tracking information flows, key hubs, and isolated groups using network analysis and statistical methods, the researchers mapped strengths and gaps in the delivery of climate information.

This website features maps visualizing the networks, from large network maps revealing broad trends of centrality and connectedness to region-specific maps reflecting dense international and interdisciplinary networks.
