Exploring the Structure of Mauna Loa: A Shield Volcano's Geology and Formation

Mauna Loa, located in Hawaii, is one of the most significant examples of a shield volcano. Characterized by its broad, gently sloping shape, this massive volcano is primarily built up from fluid lava flows that spread over large distances. The geological structure of Mauna Loa offers insights into volcanic activity and the processes that shape volcanic landscapes. This examination includes its layers, composition, and eruptive history, contributing to our understanding of both its formation and the potential hazards it poses.
