Volcano Awareness Month, held every January since 2010, is one way that residents can learn more about the volcanoes that both inspire and concern us all.

Kīlauea Volcano is not erupting and its USGS Volcano Alert level remains at normal. Updates for Kīlauea are now issued monthly.

As a student, it is an invaluable experience to see examples of and interact with successful professionals that look like you.

Over the last two centuries, six lava flows erupted from Mauna Loa’s Northeast Rift Zone and advanced toward Hilo.

HVO recently used a cutting-edge technique to sample the Halema‘uma‘u water lake deep within Kīlauea’s collapsed summit crater.

The goal of the updated website is to provide near real-time statewide air quality data online.

As roads are recut into Kīlauea’s 2018 lava flow field, many have been surprised at how hot the lava remains under the surface, even though it is solidified.

The air is cool and thin at 10,000 feet. Our field crew of six from Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) keep warm unloading gear.

The NOAA Ship Rainier, with a crew of approximately 50, works primarily in Alaska, but special circumstances this year brought it to Hawai‘i.

The USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) detects tens of thousands of earthquakes each year.
