Is a Large Section of Hawaii Going to Collapse The Hilina Slump

Every year, a large swath of the Big Island of Hawaii moves an average of approximately 3 inches or 8 centimeters towards the shoreline. Known as the “Hilina Slump“ this steady landslide has led some people to speculate that this large swath of land will all of a sudden eventually collapse into the ocean at once, generating a Pacific wide tsunami. So, is there any evidence which suggests this will occur anytime soon, or is even theoretically possible in the first place? This video will answer these two questions and discuss the feature known as the Hilina Slump. Thumbnail Photo Credit: DATA SOEST/UHM, Image © 2023 CNES / Airbus, Data LDEO-Columbia, NSF, NOAA.
