Type: Shield volcano with a cinder cone. Hawaii's famous Kilauea volcano emerged from the sea more than 50,000 years ago, and it has been active ever since.Kilauea, formed from an intraplate hot spot, is the most studied volcano in the world.Composed mostly of lava flows, Kilauea also has some deposits from explosive eruptions. It has erupted from three main areas: its summit and two rift zones. Most of Kilauea's eruptions are relatively gentle lava flows.ype: Shield volcano with a cinder cone.

The eruptions which produced the Uwekahuna Ash were much larger than those of 1790, but most of the deposits are buried by younger lava flows of Kilauea and Mauna Loa. The Pahala Ash formed from even larger explosive eruptions earlier in Kilauea's history.Two one-to-two-meter thick ashes underlie the Uwekahuna Ash but overlie the thickest prehistoric ash, a reddish sequence of ash up to 85 feet thick where it is exposed in the Hilina Pali.he current eruption along Kilauea's East Rift Zone continues with passive effusion of lava. The lava is transported underground to the coast along the western edge of the flow field, where it enters the ocean after cascading over an ancient sea cliff.
