(Magma is the term used formolten rock that is still beneath the earth's surface; it is called lava when itreaches the surface.) Summit eruptions of Kilauea and Mauna Loa occur within ornear their calderas. Flank eruptions usually take place along rift zones, whichare highly fractured zones of weakness within the volcano. Rift zones typicallyextend from the summit of a volcano toward the coastline and may continue formany miles under the sea. The Pu'u 'O'o vent began erupting in 1983 on Kilau Read More Go to Site
