Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Passive seismic ambient noise interferometry (ANI) has shown potential for lunar seismic exploration, offering the capability to detect near‐surface subsurface structures critical for future lunar mission, such as near‐surface ice deposits and lava tubes, without the need for active seismic sources.

"Pit Craters", lava tubes, and open vertical volcanic conduits in Hawaii: a problem in terminology [PDF]
International Journal of Speleology, 1998 Almost from the 1849 publication of the term pit crater, volcanologists have disagreed about the parameters differentiating these features from other vertical volcanic structures. Kaluaiki is a jameo giving entry to Thurston Lava Tube in Hawaii Volcanoes

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 153-164, February 2026.The abundance of cave beetles increases with depth, with Duvalius hartigi exhibiting maximum densities at greater depths in volcanic systems. Troglomorphic traits become more pronounced with increasing depth exclusively in the alpine species Duvalius carantii.

Cooling of a channeled lava flow with non-Newtonian rheology: crust formation and surface radiance
Annals of Geophysics, 2011 We present here the results from dynamical and thermal models that describe a channeled lava flow as it cools by radiation. In particular, the effects of power-law rheology and of the presence of bends in the flow are considered, as well as the formation

Underground Landscapes: Volcanism, Lava Tubes, and Man
Tunnelling and Underground Space TechnologyLava tubes, or pyroducts, have played a significant role in human history, serving as shelters, storage spaces, and dwellings across diverse cultures, times, and geographies. However, knowledge about their uses remains fragmented across various disciplines and sources. This research consolidates an extensive review of human interactions with lava tubes

Lava Flows and Lava Tubes: What They Are, How They Form (DVD) [PDF]
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2003 This DVD is a treat for volcanologists, Earth scientists, and others who are curious about volcanoes. Beautiful photography of lava flows from the current eruption of Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii is explained by volcanologist Ken Hon, a noted authority on the formation of lava flow fields. Hon and Gansecki are with the Geology Department at the University
