Reclus

Cono piroclastico · Chile · 1403 m

Amalia Glacier flows around the northern flank of Reclus in the Southern Patagonia Ice Field, shown in this 27 February 2018 PlanetScope satellite image (N is at the top; this image is approximately 8 km across). The flanks are heavily eroded and there is a landslide deposit from the northern flank on the glacier surface.

Sintesi geologica

Reclus, the source of several Patagonian Holocene tephra layers, was recognized to be an independent volcanic edifice in 1987. The volcano consists of a large dacitic pyroclastic cone with a crater about 1 km in diameter. As many as six tephra layers overlie a peat layer dated at 3,780 years before present. Research has also revealed evidence for eruptions in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Sintesi da Wikipedia

Riassunto in inglese

Reclus, also written as Reclús, is a cinder cone and stratovolcano located in the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, Chile. Part of the Austral Volcanic Zone of the Andes, its summit rises 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) above sea level and is capped by a crater about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) wide. Close to the volcano lies the Amalia Glacier, which is actively eroding Reclus.
