Scientists at Work: Hawaii
Dr. Rosamond Kinzler from the American Museum of Natural History explores lava flows on Kilauea with scientists from the Hawaii Volcano Observatory, Dr. James Kauahikhaua and Dr. Christina Heliker. Kilauea is the most active volcano on Earth, which has been erupting almost continuously for 200 years. The lavas of Kilauea, one of five volcanoes that form the island of Hawaii, are building the loftiest mountain on Earth. Created by American Museum of Natural History.
