The University of Hawaii has one of its research ships cruising off of Kauai and Niihau and is finding very interesting submerged topography. Evidence of past eruptions that took place under the sea are appearing in the scans being made by their instruments. You can tag along with the onboard work by going to their website: http://www.soest.hawaii.edu/expeditions/Kauai/index.htm
