The dawn of the 21st century has coincided with a fast rise in the vulnerability of civilization to the risks posed by volcanic hazards as a consequence of population expansion and development.
The growth of metropolitan centers that are situated in close proximity to active volcanoes puts a growing number of people at danger.
According to the population statistics from the World Bank, it is projected that at least 600 million people reside in regions that might be impacted by the threats posed by volcanoes. This information is very distressing.
One of the most catastrophic natural catastrophes in Hawaiian history was the eruption of Mauna Loa in the spring of 1868, which was accompanied by a number of potentially lethal occurrences. 77 people from Hawaii were killed as a result of the tsunami and the attendant landslides.
Do you know that
The eruption that occurred in 1950 lasted for a total of 23 days. Since written records have been preserved, this was the biggest outpouring of lava to come from the southwest rift zone of Mauna Loa. It produced 376 million cubic meters (492 million cubic yards) of lava during its eruption. This is similar to around 3.54 years' worth of production from Klauea's eruption that occurred between 1983 and 2018.
