Interactive 3D Map Showing The Earthquake Activity Under Hawaii the 30 Days Prior to the May 2018  Kilauea Eruption.

What is interesting is how the earthquake activity under Hawaii in the month before the most recent Kilauea eruption is almost exclusively under the Kilauea rift zone.  Also interesting is how the deep earthquake activity seems to show a lava chimney as the liquid rock migrates from the depths to just below the Kilauea rift zone.  Finally, the shallow quake activity seems to create a planar feature that parallels the surface rift features.

Pictures and videos are provided after 3D map.

The following panel contains an interactive 3D map, which is provided on a illustrative basis to help provide geographic and geologic context.  To use the map,  rotate it using the left mouse button, zoom using the mouse wheel, and roam using the right mouse button.
