Mokuʻāweoweo Caldera Thermal [MTcam], Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park

#NPSS#NationalParkServicee#Hawai~iVolcanoeses
This image is from a temporary thermal camera located on the north rim of Mauna Loa's summit caldera. The temperature scale is in degrees Celsius up to a maximum of 500 degrees (932 degrees Fahrenheit) for this camera model, and scales automatically based on the maximum and minimum temperatures on the caldera floor and not the whole frame, which sometimes results in the rim (bottom of image) looking saturated (white). Thick fume, image pixel size and other factors often result in image temperatures being lower than actual surface temperatures. Thermal webcams record in Centigrade, conversions to Fahrenheit are provided here for your convenience: 20°C=68°F, 40°C=104°F, 60°C=140°F, 80°C=176°F. Courtesy of USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory

Mokuʻāweoweo Caldera from the Northwest Rim, Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park

#NPSS#NationalParkServicee#Hawai~iVolcanoeses
This image is from a research camera positioned on the north rim of Mokuʻāweoweo, the summit caldera of Mauna Loa volcano by the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory. If you look carefully around early morning or late evening, you may see a few thermal areas emitting steam. The webcams are operational 24/7 and faithfully record the dark of night if there are no sources of incandescence or other lights. Thermal webcams record heat rather than light and get better views through volcanic gas. At times, clouds and rain obscure visibility. The cameras are subject to sporadic breakdown, and may not be repaired immediately. Some cameras are observing an area that is off-limits to the general public because of significant volcanic hazards.

Upper and Middle Parts of Mauna Loa's Southwest Rift Zone, Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park

#N#NPSN#NationalParkServiceH#Hawai~iVolcanoesNationalPark##Hawai~iVolcanoes
Live image of Mauna Loa's upper and middle Southwest Rift Zone from Dandelion Cone along the middle part of the rift zone [MDLcam]. This camera is a pan-tilt-zoom model and the view may change depending on activity. The webcams are operational 24/7 and faithfully record the dark of night if there are no sources of incandescence or other lights. Thermal webcams record heat rather than light and get better views through volcanic gas. At times, clouds and rain obscure visibility. The cameras are subject to sporadic breakdown, and may not be repaired immediately.

Kīlauea's upper Southwest Rift Zone, looking northwest [MITDcam], Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park

##NPS##NationalParkService##Hawai~iVolcanoes
Webcam image showing the upper Southwest Rift Zone of Kīlauea volcano. View is from a seismic station in the Kaʻū Desert, looking northwest. Uēkahuna, the summit of Kilauea, is visible in the distance near the right edge of the frame. Pu‘ukoa‘e is the larger of the two cinder cones near the center of the frame, and Maunaiki is a subtle hill in the center-left. The Kamakaia Hills are visible at the extreme left edge of the frame. Disclaimer: The webcams are operational 24/7 and faithfully record the dark of night if there are no sources of incandescence or other lights. At times, clouds and rain obscure visibility.

A few years ago we created lifelike Hawaiian petrel and Hawaiian nēnē plush. Along with their debut, we launched a program that ties a $1 donation from each plush sale to conservation efforts for those species at #HawaiiVolcanoes and #Haleakalā national parks.
