USGS Bottom Trawl Sampling on Lake Erie
The U.S. Geological Survey Great Lakes Science Center has conducted lake-wide surveys of the fish community in Lake Erie since the 1960s. The resulting data on relative abundance, size, and age of fishes are used by state and provincial agencies to manage Lake Erie fish stocks. This video shows bottom trawl sampling during June 2015.

Spattering in Halema`uma`u Crater
This Quicktime movie shows spattering at the margin of the summit lava lake in Halema‘uma‘u Crater. Spattering has been common at the lake, and when it occurs is easily visible from the public viewing area at Jaggar Museum. This video shows a closer view from the rim of Halema‘uma‘u, which is closed to the public due to volcanic hazards.

Small Explosive Event at Halema`uma`u Crater
This Quicktime movie shows a small explosive event that occurred at 1:20pm today at the summit lava lake. A collapse of a portion of the Halema‘uma‘u Crater wall impacted the lake and triggered an explosion of spatter. Fist-size clasts were found scattered along the rim of Halema‘uma‘u Crater near the closed visitor overlook.

Rockfall and Explosion at Halema`uma`u Crater
Quicktime movie of the rockfall and subsequent explosion at 10:20 a.m., HST, on April 28, 2015. Rocks falling into the summit lava lake generated an explosion that threw large fragments of molten lava onto the rim of Halema‘uma‘u Crater, 85 m (280 ft) above the lake.

Overlook Crater Lava Lake
The lava lake in the Overlook Crater, within Halema‘uma‘u Crater at the summit of Kīlauea Volcano, has been rising over the past few days. Today the lava was as high as 14 meters (46 feet) below the Overlook crater rim. Several areas of spattering were active along the lake margin.
