Description
Pahoehoe lava flow from Kilauea Volcano, Hawaii. This thick ropy-looking lava may flow at speeds of up to 50 kilometers per hour. Pahoehoe lava is a type of basic lava with a low silica content, giving it a low melting point. This means the lava can travel great distances from the crater or vent from which it was issued. November 2, 1999.
