Which volcano is known as being one of the most active, but at the same one of the least violent in the world?

Mt Etna, Italy

Kīlauea, Hawaii

Eyjafjallajökull, Iceland

Mt Pinatubo, Philippines

Kīlauea is one of the most active volcanoes on the planet and an invaluable resource for volcanologists who are able to study it up close due to its exclusively non-violent effusive activity. Kīlauea lacks a distinct peak and lies close to Mauna Loa.
