Description
Kilauea Volcano. Advancing aa lava into a thin burning tree with river streaks. Aa lava is produced when thick, slow lava cools and breaks, which forms cooled lava similar to bumpy rocks. Kilauea is one of the world's most active volcanoes. Lava reaches volcanoes from the Earth's interior through faults in the crust, and is forced through them by the high pressure within the Earth. The black rock of this coastline is made from old lava flows. Lava flows like this mean that the Hawaiian islands are still increasing in size. Photograph taken from the east on 10/23/99.
