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 most recent eruption of Mount Erebus began in 1972 and stopped in 1992. It shares some similarities with both Kilauea and Mount St. Helens but also has some significant differences.Like Kilauea current eruption, the vent was a lava lake that produced some lava flows. Unlike Kilauea, Mount Erebus is a stratovolcano, the same type of volcano as Mount St. Helens.Eruptive activity at Mount Erebus tends to be strombolian, a little more explosive than Kilauea but far less than Mount St. Helens.The composition of the volcanic products at each volcano is different. The silica content of lava from Kilauea and Mount Erebus are about 50 weight percent.he most recent eruption of Mount Erebus began in 1972 and stopped in 1992.
