where is kilauea located on a world map
Kīlauea Kīlauea is one of five subaerial volcanoes that make up the island of Hawaiʻi, created by the Hawaii hotspot.[2] The oldest volcano on the island, Kohala, is more than a million years old,[7] and Kīlauea, the youngest, is believed to be between 300,000 and 600,000 years of age;[2] Lōʻihi Seamount on the island's flank is even younger, but has yet to breach the surface.[8] Thus it is the second youngest volcano in the Hawaiian – Emperor seamount chain, a chain of shield volcanoes and seamounts extending from Hawaii to the Kuril–Kamchatka Trench in Russia.[9]
