US EditionHawaii's Kilauea Volcano Shoots Lava 1,000 Feet in the Air in Latest Eruption
- Early Monday morning, an eruption occurred at the southwest part of Kīlauea’s summit area located inside Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park.
- The eruption follows continued magma supply to a shallow reservoir, which can increase pressure and trigger eruptions or underground events.
- Observers recorded three lava fountaining episodes separated by pauses, suggesting subtle changes in the magma system beneath Kīlauea.
- On September 17, sulfur dioxide emissions from the summit area were recorded at 60 tonnes per day, establishing a baseline level for evaluating eruption risk.
- Although Kīlauea may not pose an immediate threat, its activity could cause ground deformation, increased seismicity, or larger eruptions later.
