via Kīlauea volcano
Kīlauea is one of the most active volcanoes on the planet and an
invaluable resource for volcanologists who are able to study it up
close due to its exclusively non-violent effusive activity. Since
2008, rising emissions of sulfur dioxide from the Halemaʻumaʻu crater
at Kīlauea's summit have led to increased levels of volcanic smog and
air quality concerns. Located within Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park,
Kīlauea is visited by millions of tourists each year, making it the
most visited attraction in Hawaii and the most visited volcano in the
world. Despite its relative safety for researchers and visitors alike,
Kīlauea is regarded by the USGS as the most dangerous volcano in the
U.S. In 2010 and early 2011, lava destroyed several houses in the
Kalapana area.
