This web site contains information about the research projects from the Geology group at the Bishop Museum. In addition to the current project information, the site also hosts a geochemical data set of volcanic rocks of the Hawaiian Islands, organized by volcano. Data are available for the Hawaiian Arch, Hawai`i (Hualalai, Kilauea, Kohala, Mauna Kea, and Mauna Loa), Kahoolawe, Kaua`i, Lana`i, Loihi, Mahukona, Maui (West Maui and Haleakala), Moloka`i, O`ahu (Honolulu Volcanic Series, Ko`olau, and Wai`anae), Ni`ihau, Kaula Island, Nihoa Island, Necker Island, La Perouse Pinnacles, Gardner Pinnacles, Midway Islands, and the Tenji and Detroit Seamounts. The data sets are available for download and are formatted as tab delimited text files which include original sample number, location of the sample, author of the original paper, major and minor element abundance (weight percent), trace element abundance (parts per million) listed in order of atomic number, and various isotopic ratios.
