Phosphate Scavenging During Lava‐Seawater Interaction Offshore of Kīlauea Volcano, Hawaii
The 2018, subaerial eruption of Kīlauea volcano, Hawaii, resulted in a 5‐km‐long stretch of coastline that actively drained lava into the ocean. Nutrients were added to the surrounding ocean through the dissolution of basaltic rock and thermal upwelling ...

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 ...

Explosive eruptions at basaltic volcanoes remain poorly understood. Kīlauea Volcano is a type locality for basaltic eruptions and is well-known for effusive activity.

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

Erupções do Kilauea e o arquipélago havaiano: a geologia da tectônica de placas e dos pontos quentes
A four-month surge of Mount Kilauea eruptions (May to August 2018) on the Big Island reminds us that the whole chain of Hawaiian islands has been built by volcanic activity.

Abstract Magma and pressure transport between Kīlauea's summit reservoirs and along its East Rift Zone (ERZ) are dynamic even in the absence of surface eruptions. However, these processes do not always produce surface manifestations and may sometimes elude detection by current geological and geodetic monitoring.

Composition and spectroscopy of olivine xenocrysts from the Hawaiian tholeiitic basalts
Tholeiitic basalts of the Hawaiian Mauna Loa and Kīlauea volcanoes (USA) contain olivine xenocrysts with chromespinelide inclusions. Their chemical composition and spectroscopic properties were investigated and compared with olivine of another ...

Recent activity at Nyiragongo and lava-like occurrences [PDF]
The behaviour of Nyiragongo, before and after its outbreak on January 10th, 1977, as compared with the behaviour of the other two volcanoes containing subpermanent lava-lakes nowadays, Erta'Ale and Mount Erebus, suggests that the considerable convection ...

A History of UNAVCO: Four Decades of Advancing Geodesy
Abstract UNAVCO was a university‐governed consortium funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), with support from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the United States Geological Survey (USGS), to support geoscience research and education using geodesy.

Resolution and Error Constraints of Topographic Measurements for Accurate Lava Flow Forecasting
Abstract The main parameters required to forecast lava flows are the eruption effusion rate, the lava viscosity, and the pre‐eruption topography. We focus on how the spatiotemporal resolution and vertical errors of topographic measurements affect lava flow forecasts.
