Volcano Watch — Beyond the lava: Mauna Loa’s deformation story
The most recent Mauna Loa eruptions in 1975, 1984, and 2022 each offer unique insights into this volcano’s eruptive behavior.
Volcano Watch — Another intrusion southwest of Kīlauea’s summit
On Feb. 3, 2024, a team of HVO scientists documented new ground cracks in three areas of the Maunaiki Trail in the Ka‘ū Desert, caused by the intrusion southwest of Kīlauea’s summit caldera.
Magma continues to move just below the surface southwest of Kīlauea caldera
Periods of increased earthquake activity and rates of ground deformation can be expected to continue in this region.
Unrest continues near Kīlauea caldera
There have been roughly 15-20 earthquakes per hour in this region for most of the day. There continue to be a few scattered earthquakes within Kīlauea caldera, but no significant clusters of activity.
Removal of old Hawaiian Volcano Observatory equipment on Uēkahuna Bluff results in partial data outage
HVO staff are currently assessing the problem and working on possible solutions. Restoration of data streams could take hours or days due to the complexity of the problem.
Volcano Watch — Where is magma stored in Kīlauea?
At Kīlauea, there are several storage regions hypothesized from decades of monitoring data.
