XBT Launch: Measuring Sound Speed
A U.S. Coast Guard member is preparing to launch an Expendable Bathythermograph (XBT) to help calculate the speed of sound in the ocean. The launcher sends a probe into the water to measure depth and temperature variation below the ship. There is a copper wire attached to both the launcher and the probe.

Pulse of ash and flashes of incandescence
Video shows an ash-emission event at 6:53pm on August 31 from the vent in Halema`uma`u crater. The event begins with a robust pulse of ash, followed shortly by flashes of bright incandescence that rise about 50 yards above the vent.

Fifth explosive eruption
Movie shows a small explosive eruption, at 7:37 am, from the vent in Halema`uma`u crater. The normal white degassing plume is rapidly overwhelmed by a more robust, ash-rich plume that rises rapidly from the vent. This is the fifth explosive eruption since the new vent at Halema`uma`u appeared in mid-March.
