On November 19th, 2024, 17:00 UTC, CoSV will host the webinar entitled “How Does Your Volcano Grow? Hydroacoustic Recordings of Lava-Water Interactions During the 2018 Eruption of Kīlauea Volcano”. This webinar will be presented by Prof. Jackie Caplan-Auerbach , geophysicist from Western Washington University, WA, USA.
To register for the webinar , click this link.
Abstract:
During the 2018 eruption of Kīlauea volcano, over half the erupted lava was deposited on the seafloor. As the lava entered the sea, it generated sounds that were recorded by a network of hydrophones deployed offshore. We compare hydroacoustic data with transmission loss models and eruption photographs to show that visible activity at the coastline was poorly recorded by the hydrophone network. Instead the acoustic signals were generated by lava flowing up to 100s of meters offshore, with implications for flank growth and edifice stability.
