Probing the melt zone of Kilauea Iki Lava Lake, Kilauea Volcano, Hawaii

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 1981
New drilling techniques were recently used to drill and core the melt zone of Kilauea Iki lava lake to a depth of 93 m. A partial melt zone was found to exist at depths between 58 m and 89 m consisting of 40 volume percent melt. Downhole seismic shots detonated in and below the melt zone resulted in the first in situ measurements of seismic velocity ...

Detecting the Source Location of Recent Summit Inflation via Three-Dimensional InSAR Observation of Kīlauea Volcano

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2015
Starting on 21 April 2015, unusual activity on the summit of Kīlauea was detected. Rapid summit inflation and a rising lava lake in Halema‘uma‘u crater were interpreted as early signs of imminent magma intrusion.

New submodel for emissions from Explosive Volcanic ERuptions (EVER v1.1) within the Modular Earth Submodel System (MESSy, version 2.55.1) [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development
This work documents the operation of a new submodel for tracer emissions from Explosive Volcanic ERuptions (EVER v1.1), developed within the Modular Earth Submodel System (MESSy, version 2.55.1).

Ensemble Forecasting of Volcanic Emissions in Hawai’i

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2015
Deterministic model forecasts do not convey to the end users the forecast uncertainty the models possess as a result of physics parameterizations, simplifications in model representation of physical processes, and errors in initial conditions.

Seismic Hazards at Kilauea and Mauna LOA Volcanoes, Hawaii [PDF]

open access: yesOpen-File Report, 1994
A significant seismic hazard exists in south Hawaii from large tectonic earthquakes that can reach magnitude 8 and intensity XII. This paper quantifies the hazard by estimating the horizontal peak ground acceleration (PGA) in south Hawaii which occurs with a 90% probability of not being exceeded during exposure times from 10 to 250 years.

A preliminary survey of the broadband seismic wavefield at Puu Oo, the active vent of Kilauea volcano, Hawaii

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1996
The seismic wavefield near an active volcanic vent consists of superimposed signals in a wide range of frequency bands from sources inside and outside the volcano.

Faulting in the South Flank of Kilauea Volcano, Hawai'i

open access: yesJournal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2001
Abstract Models developed to explain the deformation of Kilauea volcano largely rely on seismic and geodetic data that cover only a short period of activity. Kilauea's active South Flank contains two normal fault systems — the Koa'e and Hilina systems — that must reflect longer-term deformation of the edifice.

Insights on the state of stress in the mantle beneath Pahala, Hawai‘i

open access: yesVolcanica
Magma supply rates from the mantle to Hawaiian volcanoes serve as an important control on eruptive behavior at the surface. The Pa ̄hala Sill Complex, a collection of magma-bearing, seismogenic structures at 40 km depth beneath Hawai‘i, presents an ...

USGS and social media user dialogue and sentiment during the 2018 eruption of Kīlauea Volcano, Hawai‘i

open access: yesFrontiers in Communication
Responsive and empathic communication by scientists is critical for building trust and engagement with communities, which, in turn, promotes receptiveness toward authoritative hazard information during times of crisis.
