Kilauea is a classic shield style volcano, this means that it generally erupts with large lava flows. This occurs because the magma type associated with Kilauea is basalt, the most fluid of any type of volcano. This fluid type of magma also makes it so that gasses do not readily trap in the magma chamber to explosive levels. ALthough this volcano has histories of past explosions they are rare and almost always driven by interactions of magma with water versus being gas driven.
The most recent eruption of Kilauea began on December 20, 2020.
Kilauea has been in a continuous eruption since 1983. See Sources and related links for more information.
