The catastrophic, explosive eruption of Mount St. Helens, Washington, on May 18, 1980, is the most well-known eruption of the volcano. Less well known is the May 18 eruption marked the beginning of a period of eruptive activity that lasted through 1986. Beginning in October 1980, a series of 17 dome-building episodes added millions of cubic meters of lava to the crater floor. Most of the growth oc

A limited suite of samples for the 2020–2023 Kīlauea eruptions within Kaluapele (the summit caldera) were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey’s Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) field teams from within a publicly closed area of Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park in cooperation with the National Park Service. This data release presents sample metadata, whole rock ED-XRF, whole rock WD-XRF, whole

Tiltmeter data from Kīlauea stations (ESC, IKI, JKA, KAE, POC, SDH, SMC, UWE) from January 1 to December 31, 2022. These data were collected in 2022 by Andria P. Ellis of the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory.

Tiltmeter data from Kīlauea stations (ESC, IKI, JKA, KAE, POC, POO, SDH, SMC, UWE) from January 1 to December 31, 2021. These data were collected in 2021 by Andria P. Ellis of the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory. The authors thank Sarah Conway for conducting many of clock resets for these tiltmeters in 2021.

A laser rangefinder was used to record surficial mass movements at Cascades volcanoes and an experimental debris flow flume. Mass movements such as large lahars and smaller seasonal debris flows can occur at volcanoes in the Cascades. A combination of seismic, infrasound, tripwires, and webcams can be used to detect and characterize these flows. A laser rangefinder can be placed on the banks of th

Samples of silicified wood remnants from 8 trees were collected under research permit YELL-SCI-8030 on June 17, 2023, and on September 19, 2023 adjacent to Artemisia Geyser in the Upper Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park. Samples were collected for radiocarbon (14C) dating of the wood to determine when the trees grew. Trees do not grow on active geyser mounds (Hurwitz and others, 2020, 2024

These processed data were created to investigate seismic velocity changes associated with the period of extended unrest and eruption at Mauna Loa, Island of Hawaiʻi. Primary data (i.e., seismic waveforms) are hosted at NSF SAGE Facility (https://service.iris.edu/) and were ingested by the code CWIRE Version 1.0.0 (https://doi.org/10.5066/P13BKSJJ) to produce the data analyzed in Hotovec-Ellis 'Sei

REDPy (short for Repeating Earthquake Detector in Python) is a seismic tool for automatically detecting and grouping earthquakes based on the similarity of their waveforms into "families" of related events. It can be used in near real-time for monitoring or for research. The catalogs in this release bracket the late-2022 eruption of Mauna Loa, Island of Hawaiʻi; two separate catalogs are provided

A database of the geologic map of the Katmai Volcanic Cluster as described in the original abstract: This digital publication contains all the geologic map information used to publish U.S. Geological Survey Geologic Investigations Map Series I-2778 (Hildreth and Fierstein, 2003). This is a geologic map of the Katmai volcanic cluster on the Alaska Peninsula (including Mount Katmai, Trident Volcano,

Tiltmeter data from station Jonika Flow (JKA) used in the publication "Pre-existing ground cracks as lava flow pathways at Kīlauea in 2014" by Tim R. Orr, Edward W. Llewellin, Kyle R. Anderson, and Matthew R. Patrick. These data were collected in 2014 by Asta Miklius of the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory.

In the late evening of November 27, 2022, an effusive eruption began inside Moku'aweoweo caldera at the summit of Mauna Loa volcano. Within a few hours, lava had covered most of the caldera floor, and several fissures just outside caldera sent short lava flows up to 3 kilometers (2 miles) to the southwest. Later in the morning of November 28, summit effusion ceased and the eruption moved into the
