Does mauna loa have mafic or felsic magma?
Mauna Loa volcano in Hawaii typically has mafic magma, which is rich in magnesium and iron, resulting in low viscosity and flowing lava. This magma composition contributes to the shield volcano shape and frequent eruptions on Mauna Loa.
What is happening to the plates that form Mauna Loa?
The tectonic plate that Mauna Loa sits on is moving northwestward over a hot spot in the Earth's mantle, creating a chain of volcanic islands in the Hawaiian archipelago. As the plate moves, new lava erupts on Mauna Loa, adding to its size and height. The volcano periodically erupts, releasing pressure from the magma chamber beneath it.
