Yesterday I posted some images of the lava flow we visited on our Department field trip to Hawaii … and as promised, today I have some video from the lava flow field on Kilauea. Now, I’m no cinematographer — all these videos were shot with my iPhone, which I was trying to hold steady in a sea of excited students and faculty. However, these videos do show a lot of the lava flow dynamics I talked about in yesterday’s post. Let’s take a look.
