Our Watersheds

The Koʻolau Mountains contain some of the most important and productive watershed forests on Oʻahu.

In addition to sustaining our supply of fresh water, a healthy functioning watershed forest performs valuable ecosystem services such as:

  • retaining soils and nutrients,
  • slowing erosion rates,
  • preventing flooding in lowland areas,
  • maintaining water quality in streams,
  • reducing the sedimentation and pollution of nearshore reef environments, and
  • providing important habitat for other native species.
