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.
The USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) is responsible for monitoring six active volcanoes on the Islands of Hawaiâi and Maui. The Island of Hawaiâi, with four active volcanoes, is liveliest. Between 1912 and 2012, there were nearly 50 KÄ«lauea eruptions, 12 Mauna Loa eruptions, and one HualÄlai intrusion of magma. Mauna Kea most recently erupted only about 4,000 years ago. LÅâihi, the submarine volcano located off the south coast of KÄ«lauea, erupted twice between 1950 and 1996.
