Asavyo

Gunung api perisai · Ethiopia · 1338 m

Asavyo volcano, near the center of this NASA Landsat image, is the SW-most of three large silicic stratovolcanoes of uncertain age constructed along a NE-SW-trending line in the Danakil horst. Basaltic lava flows blanket the flanks of Asavyo, which merge into the Mogorros plains to the south. The caldera at the bottom right-center is Oyma volcano, Mallahle volcano lies beneath the clouds at the top center, and Sorkale volcano occupies the circular dark-colored area at the upper right.

Ringkasan geologi

Asavyo, also known as Bara’Ale, is the SW-most of three large silicic stratovolcanoes (along with Mallahle and Nabro) constructed along a NE-SW-trending line in the Danakil horst. A large 12-km-wide caldera truncates the summit. Basaltic lava flows cover the flanks, which merge into the Mogorros plains to the south. Although the age of the volcano is not known precisely, Asavyo was considered to have erupted during last 2,000 years (IAVCEI, 1973). A large post-caldera cone was constructed near the center of the caldera, and smaller pyroclastic cones occur within the caldera and on its flanks.
