Today we celebrated our graduates, Lichen and Raymond, who are also preparing to attend #AGU2025. We had a walk through of their posters with students and friends of the department. Stop by session V21C on Tuesday morning to see the cool science they’re working on with Kīlauea’s ongoing eruption.

Two of our alumni are the ones who set up the camera earlier this year. RIP V3, you served us well.

⚒️🍎🧪🌋 Every Rock Has A Story is coming back with new episodes from HAWAII starting in December! Episode 83 is about the tephra that erupted in June 2023 from the Kilauea volcano. Share it with kids, parents, and teachers you know! youtube.com/shorts/r33KX...

Members of the department, a few students, and many our collaborators went up to see and/or participate in the episode 37 Kīlauea eruption response. Heather, a postdoc at HVO, shared this photo she took at the public viewing area. #Kilauea
