Abstract
The present isohyetal (equal rainfall) pattern of Oahu, Hawaii is related mathematically to the topographic surface. By raising or lowering sea level in accordance with geologic evidence, paleo-isohyetal patterns can be calculated from a reconstructed topographic surface. Lowering of sea level 350 feet would increase rainfall by as much as 100 percent, whereas raising sea level by 100 feet would decrease rainfall as much as 50 percent. These changes in rainfall would have substantially affected the zonality of soils.
