Limu o Pele or Pele's seaweed (Hawaiian, literally "seaweed of Pele" after Pele the Hawaiian fire goddess of volcanoes) is a geological term for thin sheets and subsequently shattered flakes of brownish-green to near-colorless volcanic glass lava spatter, commonly resembling seaweed in appearance, that have been erupted from a volcano. Limu o Pele is formed when water is forced into and trapped inside lava, as when waves wash over the top of the exposed flows of the molten rock. The water boils and is instantly converted to steam, expanding to form bubbles within the lava. The lava rapidly cools and solidifies as the bubbles grow. The volcanic glass bubbles burst and are dispersed by the wind, showering flakes of glass downwind.

| - Limu, Limu o Pele (Algas de Pelé en idioma hawaiano) refiere a delgadas hojuelas de vidrio basáltico que a veces se forma cuando lava pahoehoe entra al mar. Su formación ocurre cuando agua marina entra en contacto con lava quedando parte del agua atrapada en la lava hirviendo y formando burbujas de vapor en esta. Al romperse las burbujas sus paredes forman limus. (es)
- Le limu o Pele ou limu, terme hawaïen signifiant littéralement en français « algue de Pélé », est un type de roche volcanique, plus précisément de verre volcanique, qui se présente sous la forme d'un pétale de quelques centimètres. Très fin, celui-ci est translucide, ce qui permet d'observer des bulles de gaz volcaniques piégées à l'intérieur, et de couleur brune à verte. (fr)
- Во́доросли Пе́ле (от гав. Limu o Pele, англ. Pele's seaweed — водоросли богини Пе́ле) — форма лавы в виде тонких листов, образующихся в результате застывания лавовых пузырей под воздействием воды. (ru)
- Водорості Пеле (від гав. Limu o Pele, англ. Pele's seaweed — водорості богині Пеле) — форма лави у вигляді тонких листочків, що утворюються в результаті застигання лавових бульбашок під впливом води. (uk)

The volcanic glass bubbles burst and are dispersed by the wind, showering flakes of glass downwind. Limu o Pele has been found around subaerial littoral volcanic cones and also at submarine volcanoes, for example, on the summit of Kamaʻehuakanaloa (formerly Lōʻihi) seamount. (en)
