In this video segment adapted from NOVA, scientist Mike Garcia draws lava samples at the foot of the active Kilauea volcano to see if it is related to its neighboring volcano, Mauna Loa.

In this Nature video, follow geologists as they retrieve samples from a fresh batch of Kilauea's molten lava. [5:25]

In this video segment from Nature, learn the geological process by which the next Hawaiian island will be formed. [1:12]

Video explores how volcanoes are formed and where they are located. [1:27]

A video exploring all things volcanoes. Learn how they form and erupt. Also get information about the longest erupting volcano, Stromboli. [3:04]

A geochemist discusses behavior within magma chambers- information that could one day lead to improved monitoring of volcano hazards.

Animation explores hotspot volcanism and offers a simple illustration of how this results in chains of volcanoes such as the Hawaiian Islands. [2:14]

Find out why there is such a variety of lavas in the Basin & Range province. [1:10]

Learn how the Hawaiian Islands were formed by a geothermal hotspot and resulting volcanic activity in this video segment from Nature. [0:43]
