Geology of Hawaii Reefs,n plate direction is marked by a northward kink in the chain at the end of the Hawaii Ridge approximately 3,500 km from the site of active volcanism (Moore 1987). On the basis of dredged basalts, Sharp and Clague (2006) assign an age of 50 Ma to this shift from northern to northwestern plate motion,

Biology and Ecological Functioning of Coral Reefs in the Main Hawaiian Islands,/year. Molten lava breaking through the thin rigid crust slowly creates volcanic mountains that eventually reach the surface of the ocean and emerge as islands (Macdonald et al. 1983). As the islands move off the hot spot they undergo erosion and subsidence. Eventually they are worn down and gradual
