What volcano has erupted the most?

rocky Darren


Hi Darren,

I'm not sure it is possible to answer this. Stromboli volcano in Italy, for example, has been erupting pretty much constantly for over 2000 years. However, these eruptions are very small so you can say that although it is active, it doesn't erupt much volume. Kilauea here in Hawai'i is probably the most active volcano at the moment, both in terms of eruption frequency and volume erupted (over the past 200 years or so).

Sincerely,
Scott Rowland
