Volcano: The Birth of a Mountain

Documents the extended growth of a new mountain, Mauna Ulu, from a series of volcanic eruptions on the island of Hawaii. Studies the geological forces that caused the formation of a shield volcano. Shows how massive lava flows covered whole forests, generated raging tornadoes, and reshaped long segments of coastline during the mountain's creation. Describes methods and instruments used by geologists in studying volcanic activity.
