The volcano, a planned earthquake research facility at the UH Hilo campus

Plans are underway for a new research facility at the University of Hawaii on the Hilo campus to house the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) and the Pacific Island Ecosystem Research (PIERC) Center.

The 60,000-square-foot integrated research center will bring together employees from both HVO and PIERC to monitor, investigate and assess risks from active volcanoes and earthquakes in Hawaii. The collaboration will provide the scientific understanding and techniques needed to support and implement the sound management and conservation of biological resources in Hawaii and other Pacific island sites.

“At UH Hilo, we are honored to host HVO on our campus and are excited about the benefits this partnership can bring to our students, who will be able to interact with HVO and PIERC staff and conceptual functions in geosciences,” said Hilo Adviser Bonnie Irwin.

The United States Geological Survey (USGS) selected AHL architecture firm to design the research facility. A related 13,000-square-foot field station is being built in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The laboratory is designed and constructed in separate locations, and the laboratory, management and support facilities are concurrently planned in support of the USGS mission to enrich the Hawaiian Island research community.

“We are honored to be chosen to design these important, exciting projects that have a mission that resonates with us,” said Nathan St. Clair, Director in Charge of AHL. “We plan to provide state-of-the-art facilities that will enrich the Hawaiian Island community for years to come.”
