Kīlauea Volcano – USGS 24 Hour Watch: Monitoring Lava Flow
Kīlauea Volcano – USGS 24 Hour Watch: Monitoring Lava FlowScientists from the U.S. Geological Survey’s Hawaiian Volcano Observatory are part of a 24 hour watch during the ongoing eruption on the lower east rift zone of the Kīlauea Volcano. Working in shifts they keep an eye on where the lava activity is and where it might move to.
