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.
There are currently three active volcanoes in Hawaii. On Hawaii Island you'll find Maunaloa and Kilauea in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Maunaloa last erupted in 1984 and Kilauea has been continuously erupting since 1983. Loihi is located underwater off the southern coast of Hawaii's Big Island. Erupting since 1996, this emerging seamount may break the surface in about 250,000 years, adding a ninth island to the Hawaiian chain.
