Composition of 2022 Mauna Loa Lava Provides New Insights
HVO's Volcano Watch shows that the entire 2022 Mauna Loa eruption was fed from a single homogeneous magma source and distinct from any stored magmas left over from 1984:

Mauna Loa's Status back to GREEN
As an end to the 2022 eruption, USGS/HVO has turned Mauna Loa's Volcanic Activity status back to Green:

Code:
Alert Level: NORMAL, Color Code: GREEN 2023-03-16 19:32:57 UTC HVO/USGS Volcanic Activity Notice Volcano: Mauna Loa (VNUM #332020) Current Volcano Alert Level: NORMAL Previous Volcano Alert Level: ADVISORY Current Aviation Color Code: GREEN Previous Aviation Color Code: YELLOW Issued: Thursday, March 16, 2023, 9:32 AM HST Source: Hawaiian Volcano Observatory Notice Number: 2023/H109 Location: N 19 deg 28 min W 155 deg 36 min Elevation: 13681 ft (4170 m) Area: Hawaii Volcanic Activity Summary:Mauna Loa has been quiet for the past three months since the eruption ended on December 13, 2022. The number of earthquakes beneath Mauna Loa's summit has returned to background levels. Inflation of Mauna Loa continues as magma replenishes the summit magma chamber. Accordingly, the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) is lowering the Volcano Alert Level for ground-based hazards from ADVISORY to NORMAL and the Aviation Color Code from YELLOW to GREEN. In conjunction with this change, Mauna Loa updates will change from weekly to monthly, with the next monthly update on April 6, 2023.
