Webcam check at Halema‘uma‘u
HVO geologists made a routine visit to the webcam monitoring Halema‘uma‘u. No changes were observed in the pit, but views were hampered by poor weather and thick fog.

10 frame 3D reconstruction
Digital 3D reconstruction of lake bottom using 10 photo frames taken by the dive camera system. This reconstruction allows us to gain more insight about the lake bottom since elevation has been added to the photographs.

Routine visit to Mauna Loa summit
HVO staff visited the summit of Mauna Loa on foot to repair the webcam. The weather was perfectly clear, and views of the caldera floor showed nothing unusual.

Serapeum, a Roman marketplace in the center of Pozzuoli, near Naples, Italy.Serapeum, a Roman Marketplace in Pozzuoli, Italy, records deformation of Campi Flegrei caldera over two millennia. It was built above sea level about 2000 years ago, but mollusk borings on the large marble columns indicate that it subsided by 7 meters (23 feet) below sea level before being uplifted above sea level once more in the past several hundred years.
