In the spring, winter sea ice thaws and moves offshore leaving the coast exposed to increased wave action and relatively warm water temperatures that, when in contact with the bluff, erodes the toe of the bluff.

Water collected from the lake at the bottom of Halema‘uma‘u is prepared for laboratory analyses at the USGS California Volcano Observatory. Results thus far reveal chemistry indicative of complex reactions between the water, magmatic gases, and Kīlauea's basaltic rocks.

Hydrologic Technician Sharon Mulready checks equipment on electrical power tower and site 372750122012701 Coyote Creek near Alviso Slough. The tidal gage is located at the confluence of Coyote Creek and Alviso Slough, and is accessible only by boat. The estuary is fed by the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers, and various tributaries in the Central Valley.

In September of 2019, a 315 ton iceberg known as D28 broke free from the Amery Ice Shelf in Antarctica. The berg has a surface area of more than 600 square miles, roughly comparable to the size of the Hawaiian island of Oahu. It's the largest iceberg to calve from the ice shelf since the 1960s.
