Segererua Plateau

화쇄구 · Kenya · 699m

The Segererua and Rusarus Plateaus, right of the center of this NASA Landsat image (with north to the top) contain a large number of late-Pleistocene to Holocene basaltic cones, lava flows, and maars. The Milgris River cuts across the top of the image, and Merille River lies just below the center of the image. Other vents lie east of the Kauro River (bottom center). Plateau basalts are also visible at the right-center.

지질학적 요약

A large number of late-Pleistocene to Holocene basaltic cones, lava flows, and maars occur along a roughly 50-km-long NE-SW trend on the Segererua and Rusarus Plateaus and areas to the SW. This volcanic region is located well E of the East African Rift, S of the massive Marsabit shield volcano. The two plateaus host most of the vents and are bounded by the Milgis River to the N and the Merille River to the S. Other vents lie to the SW, east of the Kauro River, and another large area of basaltic lava flows lies to the W.
