What will you learn?
The 2018 Kilauea eruption, which began on May 3 and lasted 107 days, was
one of the longest eruptions in recent history in the lower Puna district
of Hawaii. Over 700 homes were destroyed, and there was additional damage
to the USGS Hawaiian Volcanoes Observatory as well as to critical
infrastructure within the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Many federal,
state, and local agencies and organizations supported response to this
historic event. In this seminar, the speakers will describe how DOI’s
Strategic Sciences Group (SSG) provided insights to help identify potential
social, environmental, and economic consequences of the eruption. The
presentation will provide an overview of the SSG methods and potential
actions to mitigate the eruption’s short- and long-term impacts.
