- Summary:
- This paper briefly mentions Pleistocene glaciation on Mauna Kea. Daly hypothesizes that the present Hawaiian coral reefs began their growth in post-glacial time. [This is the earliest recognition of glaciation in Hawaii, although W.A. Bryan (1916) and H.E. Gregory (see Bayer, 1925) independently made the same discovery. - Hawaiian Volcano Observatory]
