Elastic interaction between Mauna Loa and Kīlauea evidenced by independent component analysis [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 The contrasting dynamics between Mauna Loa and Kīlauea have been studied over the last 100 years from multiple viewpoints. The fact that dynamic changes of one volcano trigger a dynamic response of the other volcano indicates a connection may exist ...

The cascading origin of the 2018 Kīlauea eruption and implications for future forecasting [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 The 2018 summit and flank eruption of Kīlauea Volcano was one of the largest volcanic events in Hawaiʻi in 200 years. Data suggest that a backup in the magma plumbing system at the long-lived Puʻu ʻŌʻō eruption site caused widespread pressurization in ...

Microstructural constraints on magmatic mushes under Kīlauea Volcano, Hawaiʻi [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 Olivine crystals with prominent intracrystalline distortions have previously been used to quantify deformational processes within the mantle. Here, the authors show that similar techniques can be applied to deformed volcanic olivine crystals, providing ...

Mapping pollution exposure and chemistry during an extreme air quality event (the 2018 Kīlauea eruption) using a low-cost sensor network [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2021 Significance Poor air quality is a global public health issue, contributing to millions of premature deaths per year worldwide. Low-cost air quality sensors are a promising tool to improve monitoring capabilities.

Effect of volcanic emissions on clouds during the 2008 and 2018 Kilauea degassing events [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021 Volcanic eruptions in otherwise clean environments are “natural experiments” wherein the effects of aerosol emissions on clouds and climate can be partitioned from meteorological variability and anthropogenic activities.

Hawaiian Volcanic Ash, an Airborne Fomite for Nontuberculous Mycobacteria [PDF]
GeoHealthNontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are environmentally acquired opportunistic pathogens that can cause chronic lung disease. Within the U.S., Hawai'i shows the highest prevalence rates of NTM lung infections.

Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Long‐period (LP), hybrid, and volcano‐tectonic (VT) seismicity are important indicators for tracking the evolution of volcanic processes. Here, we propose an unsupervised learning method to classify 5,949 seismic events in Kilauea volcano, Hawai'i ...

Compositional boundary layers trigger liquid unmixing in a basaltic crystal mush [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2019 This study seeks to tackle the question of why intermediate magmatic rock compositions are poorly represented on the Earth’s surface. The authors do so by tracking the evolution of the physical behaviour of immiscible Fe-rich liquids within a sample ...

Crystal scavenging from mush piles recorded by melt inclusions [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2019 The increasingly prevalent view of magmatic systems as mush-dominated challenges the common assumption that melt inclusions record the pre-eruptive storage and processing of the melts they were erupted with.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 Among the hazards posed by volcanoes are the emissions of gases and particles that can affect air quality and damage agriculture and infrastructure. A recent intense episode of volcanic degassing associated with severe impacts on air quality accompanied ...
