The term crony capitalism made a significant impact in the public arena as an explanation of the Asian financial crisis.
Hawaiian eruptions may occur along fissure vents, such as during the eruption of Mauna Loa Volcano in 1950, or at a central vent, such as during the 1959 eruption in KÄ«lauea Iki Crater, which created a lava fountain 580 meters (1,900 ft) high and formed a 38-meter cone named Pu Ê» u Pua Ê» i.ery little amounts of volcanic ash are produced. This type of eruption occurs most often at hotspot volcanoes such as KÄ«lauea and Iceland, though it can occur near subduction zones (e.g. Medicine Lake Volcano in California, United States) and rift zones.
Since then, there have been 33 recorded eruptions, making Mauna Loa a very active volcano. The last eruption happened in 1984, and some experts say that Mauna Loa is due for another. Between 2002 and 2005, the summit of Mauna Loa experienced some inflation, which is indicative of magma building up in the volcano.ctivity. Volcanic activity began in Mauna Loa about 700,000 to 1,000,000 years ago and is still ongoing today. The first recorded eruption happened in 1843, but Mauna Loa probably had thousands of eruptions before that, including many that only native Hawaiians had witnessed.
