  • 15 Kilauea Volcano's November 1979 Eruption
    15 KILAUEA VOLCANO'S NOVEMBER 1979 ERUPTION* Norman G. Banks and Staff Hawaiian Volcano Observatory Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Hawaii 96718 KIlauea Volcano erupted November 16-17, 1979, on its upper east rift zone. The eruption was preceded by a seismic swarm that started at 0900 he, March 15. Summit deflation and infla­ tion at the eventual eruption site began simultaneously but one-half hour after the onset of the seismic swarm. Copious emission of steam began east of Pauahi Crater at 0805 hr, November 16, but no lava was erupted from these cracks. At 1818 hr, the sounds of fountaining and falling spatter was heard from vents east of the steaming cracks. At 0821 hr, lava welled up in a new fissure in northwestern Pauahi and soon established low fountains. Seven minutes later, observers arrived at the eastern vents and observed a curtain of fire 5-10 m high and 100 m long. These eastern fountairts mlgrated eastward and ceased activity at 0915 hr. At 1130 hr, two mOre vents opened in Pauahi Crater, followed shortly by opening of a fourth vent in the crater and cessation of activity of the one that opened at 0821 hr. Over the next 1-1/2 hours, five more vents opened progressively west­ ward of the crater. Slightly before 1600 hr, activity at the western vents· began to wane and ceased within the next hour. Lava production at the three still-active vents in Pauahi Crater 'remained relatively constant until 0100 hr, November 17, followed by gradual waning and cessation of activity at 0730 hr.

    2 This field trip guide borrows from similar guides written by George P.L. Walker, Jack Lockwood, Rick Hazlett, Peter Lipman, and Norm Banks Map of Hawai‘i showing post-western-contact (i.e., since 1778) lava flows, and indicating geographic locations covered in this fieldguide. (adapted from Rowland & Walker 1990). 3 HILO Hilo is built on pre- and post-contact lava flows of Mauna Loa. Most of the city is underlain by the ~1350 year-old Pana‘ewa flow, which is a large-volume, mostly tube-fed pāhoehoe oceanite picrite (Lipman & Moore 1996). The Pana‘ewa flow underlies the whole of the nearly flat land south and east of the airport. It is well-exposed in an industrial area just off HWY 11 a little past the Pana‘ewa zoo while heading south from Hilo to Volcano, as well as along the coastline near Banyon Drive. During 1880-81, tube-fed p āhoehoe erupted from ~3200 m elevation on Mauna Loa’s NE rift zone entered what is now part of Hilo (Figure 1), and it is exposed best at the Ka ūmana cave. Hilo is built in the subtle constructional valley formed by the boundary of Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa volcanoes. The cliffs to the north along the Hāmākua coast are sea cliffs cut into deeply weathered Mauna Kea pyroclastics and lavas. The constructional valley extends beneath the ocean, and along with the coastline helps to funnel tsunami directly to the city of Hilo (Figure 2). More than 150 people were killed here by a tsu- Figure 1.

  • Hawaiian Volcanoes During 1951
    Hawaiian Volcanoes During 1951 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY BULLETIN 996-D A CONTRIBUTION TO GENERAL GEOLOGY HAWAIIAN VOLCANOES DURING 1951 By GORDON A. MACDONALD and CHESTER K. WENTWORTTI ABSTRACT The year 1951 produced no eruptive activity of the Hawaiian volcanoes, but much subsurface volcanic uneasiness was manifested in tilting of the ground sur­ face and abundant earthquakes. Records of the earthquakes, of magnetic changes, of changes in the width of cracks, and of tilting of the ground surface, all reveal some of the changes that took place. In December 1950, rapid south-southwestward tilting of the ground at the northeastern rim of Kilauea caldera indicated a sinking of the top of Kilauea volcano, in response to a decrease of pressure beneath. Throughout the first quarter of 1951 Kilauea was quiet, but in April there began a period of marked uneasiness. This was evidenced by a strong earthquake originating on the east rift zone on April 22, followed by 108 aftershocks, and on April 24 by the begin­ ning of rapid northward tilting at the northeastern rim of the caldera, apparently accompanying an increase of volcanic pressure at depth. The increase of pres­ sure beneath Kilauea continued until early August. On August 21 the uneasiness was abruptly transferred to Mauna Loa. The earthquake at 00b57m on August 21, in Kona, on the western slope of Mauna Loa, was the most severe of any on the island of Hawaii since 1868. In its epicentral area, in the vicinity of Napoopoo and Captain Cook in central Kona, it had an intensity of 7 on the modified Mercalli scale.
