Elastic interaction between Mauna Loa and Kīlauea evidenced by independent component analysis [PDF]
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 ...

Hawaiian Volcanic Ash, an Airborne Fomite for Nontuberculous Mycobacteria [PDF]
Nontuberculous 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.

Microstructural constraints on magmatic mushes under Kīlauea Volcano, Hawaiʻi [PDF]
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 ...

Compositional boundary layers trigger liquid unmixing in a basaltic crystal mush [PDF]
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 ...

The cascading origin of the 2018 Kīlauea eruption and implications for future forecasting [PDF]
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 ...

Crystal scavenging from mush piles recorded by melt inclusions [PDF]
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.

ERUPTION OF THE VOLCANO KILAUEA. SEISMICAGRAVITY PROCESSES AND GRAVITOMAGNETIC DISTURBANCES, FIXED AT THE VOLCANO ACTIVATION STAGE [PDF]
An analysis is made of the developing eruption of the shield Kilauea volcano, which significantly influenced the natural environment of the Hawaiian archipelago.

Effect of volcanic emissions on clouds during the 2008 and 2018 Kilauea degassing events [PDF]
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.

Using paleomagnetism to determine the heating effect of lava flows on underlying substrates
The extent to which heat from lava flows passes into underlying and adjacent materials has significant implications for volcanic hazard studies. Here we demonstrate how paleomagnetism can be used as a tool to determine the heating effects of lava flows ...
