Book excerpt: There is a great deal of information we can learn about Earth's past by examining its landforms and the forces that shaped them. Geologists are scientists who know how to read Earth's rocks. They study landforms to determine how they were created over the course of thousands of years. Geologists also observe and analyze the changes taking place before our very eyes. From the lava flows that created the Hawaiian Islands to the massive glaciers that carved the Great Lakes, this set is sure to excite and illuminate young readers and burgeoning geologists. Features include: Supports the Next Generation Science Standards by examining the forces that shape Earth and how this affects human civilization. Strong focus on STEM topics. Dazzling photographs of Earth's forces at work are sure to draw in even the most reluctant readers.

As such, this monograph contains a diversity of research results that highlight the current understanding of how Hawaiian volcanoes work and point out fundamental questions requiring additional exploration. Volume highlights include: Studies that span a range of depths within Earth, from the deep mantle to the atmosphere Methods that cross the disciplines of geochemistry, geology, and geophysics to address issues of fundamental importance to Hawai‘i’s volcanoes Data for use in comparisons with other volcanoes, which can benefit from, and contribute to, a better understanding of Hawai‘i Discussions of the current issues that need to be addressed for a better understanding of Hawaiian volcanism Hawaiian Volcanoes, From Source to Surface will be a valuable resource not only for researchers studying basaltic volcanism and scientists generally interested in volcanoes, but also students beginning their careers in geosciences. This volume will also be of great interest to igneous petrologists, geochemists, and geophysicists.
