Liado Hayk

Campo volcánico · Ethiopia · 878 m

The Liado Hayk volcanic group contains maars and scoria cones visible across this February 2021 Planet Labs satellite image monthly mosaic (N is at the top; this image is approximately 13.5 km across). A cluster of maar craters is in the top right of this image, with some containing lakes, the largest of which is the darker-colored 600-m-wide lake. There are several linear groups of scoria cones and partly-buried lava flow fields around them.

Resumen geológico

The Liado Hayk (Liado Lake) volcanic field consists of a dozen closely spaced maars and cinder cones with associated lava fields in the Awash plain NE of Dofen volcano. The morphology of the cones and maars suggested a late Pleistocene or Holocene age (Wood, 1979 p.c.).
