Whether you measure from the ocean floor or only the portion above sea level, Mauna Loa on the Big Island of Hawaii is the most voluminous volcano on earth. About 9,000 km3 (cubic kilometers) of lava are above sea level and over 50,000 km3 of lava rise from the ocean floor to the summit. Only the other Hawaii volcanoes come close to these numbers. Not counting Hawaii, Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania and Mount Cameroon are two of the largest by volume.
