Manda-Inakir.jpg
The dark-colored lava flows extending diagonally across the center of this Landsat image were erupted from pyroclastic cones of Manda-Inakir volcano. These NNW-trending fissure vents and cones are located along the Ethiopia-Djibouti border and represent an uplifted mid-ocean ridge spreading center now exposed above sea level. An eruption in 1928 or 1929 at the SE end of the Manda-Inakir rift near the town of Korili (in Djibouti) produced the Kammourta cinder cone and a lava flow.

Alayta shield volcano.jpg
The elongated massif extending down the center of the image is Alayta shield volcano, which covers an area of 2700 sq km in the western Danakil depression. A series of very recent craters is aligned along the NNW-trending axis of the basaltic-to-trachytic shield. The Alayta lava field, covered by very fresh lava flows, was erupted from N-S-trending fissures along the east side of the shield volcano and laps up against the western flank of Afderà volcano, immediately south of Lake Guilietti (Lake Afrera) at the upper right-center.

Korath Range.jpg
The fissure-controlled Korath Range is an isolated group of tuff cones and lava flows in southern Ethiopia that were erupted along the Turkana Rift. The Korath Range tuff cones issued many lava flows that traveled up to about 5 km, forming lobate margins, most prominently on the western flanks of the massif. The apparent youngest flow issued from the central crater and flowed through a breach in its rim.

Ma Alalta.jpg
Ma Alalta volcano (center), also known as Pierre Pruvost, is an 1815-m-high stratovolcano located well to the west of the Danakil depression. A large trachytic and rhyolitic stratovolcano at the center of the Ma Alalta complex contains nested oval-shaped summit calderas, 6 km and 4 km wide in the long direction. Young basaltic lava flows were erupted on the NW, SE, and eastern flanks of the volcano, and young pantelleritic obsidian domes and lava flows were erupted on the volcano's southern flank.

Kone volcanic complex.jpg
The Kone volcanic complex, also known as Gariboldi, is composed of a series of silicic calderas and young basaltic cinder cones and lava flows. North lies to the lower left in this Space Shuttle image. The dark-colored basaltic lava flows on the caldera floor were erupted during the first half of the 19th century along a hinge line between a smaller caldera on the east and a larger, 5-km-wide caldera on the west. The larger young lava flow at the right was erupted from a vent on the SE flank.

Gedamsa caldera.jpg
Gedamsa caldera is located along the Main Ethiopian Rift east of Lake Koka (left) and SW of the Wonji Sugar Estate Farm (upper right). The 7 x 9 km wide caldera (also spelled Gadamsa or Gedemsa) is cut by many NNE-SSW-trending regional faults of the Ethiopian Rift. A chain of rhyolitic lava flows and a large 1-km-wide crater occupies the caldera floor. A young lava dome and flow is found on the SW flank of the volcano (lower left).

Alutu.jpg
Alutu volcano lies between light-brown Lake Mirrga (Lake Langano) on the south and greenish Lake Zway on the north. The volcano displays several craters aligned along NNE-SSW and E-W fissures. Dark-colored obsidian lava flows erupted from craters along the fissures have descended the flanks in all directions. Although the age of the most recent eruption of Alutu is not known, its eruptive products overlie recent basaltic lava flows to the west, and strong fumarolic activity continues.

Gabillema.jpg
Gabillema is a rhyolitic stratovolcano along the axis of the Addado graben in Ethiopia. The summit of the volcano lies below and to the left of the center of this Landsat image. Rhyolitic lava domes are located on the flanks of the volcano, and a 5 x 17 km basaltic lava field that covers the Ado Bad (Ado Lake) Plain north of the volcano originated from a broad area of fissure vents and spatter cones on the north side of Gabillema volcano.

Manda Hararo.jpg
The Manda Hararo complex, which extends diagonally from the NW to SE across this Landsat image, represents an uplifted segment of a mid-ocean ridge spreading center. The massive complex is 105 km long and 20-30 km wide, and consists of small basaltic shield volcanoes and abundant fissure-fed lava flows. The dominant part of the complex lies to the south, where the Gumatmali-Gablaytu fissure system is located.

Hertali.jpg
The dark-colored area cutting across the center of this NASA Landsat image (with north to the top) is a series of basaltic lava flows erupted from fissure vents at Hertali. These flows lie at the south end of the Awash Plain, about 50 km NNE of Dofen volcano. The youthful morphology of the flows suggest a late Pleistocene to Holocene age. Numerous NNE-SSW-trending fissures of the Ethiopian Rift prominently cut across both sides of the rift.

Fentale aerial.jpg
A vertical aerial photo of the Quaternary Fentale volcanic complex, lying along the main Ethiopian rift zone, shows its prominent summit caldera and lava flows forming its flanks. The 3 x 4 km caldera with steep-sided walls up to 500 m high is elongated perpendicular to the direction of the regional fissures of the Ethiopian Rift. Note the recent rhyolitic obsidian lava flow to the NE (upper right) marked with curved flow ridges. The dark lava flow on the caldera floor was erupted in 1820.

Boset-Bericha.jpg
Two closely spaced volcanic centers, Boset (Boseti-Gudda) and Bericha (Boseti-Bericcia) are composite dominantly rhyolitic-to-trachytic volcanoes rising above the floor of the Ethiopian Rift valley. Boset, the SSW center (also known as Gudda), is below and to the left of the center of this Landsat image, while the NNE center, Bericha, lies just above the center of the image. Fissures connecting Boset and Bericha have erupted youthful, prehistorical basaltic lava flows.

Dama Ali.jpg
Dama Ali is a broad shield volcano in Ethiopia. It rises above the NW shore of Lake Abhe (right) at the southern end of the Kalo Plain and was the most likely source of an eruption reported to have occurred in 1631 AD. Nested circular craters are located at the summit of the dominantly basaltic volcano, and an arcuate chain of rhyolitic lava domes can be seen on the northern, western, and southern flanks. Major fumarolic activity occurs in the summit crater, and abundant hot springs are found on the volcano.

O'a caldera.jpg
The eastern (right) side of dumbbell-shaped Lake O'a (Lake Shalla) forms the 17-km-wide O'a caldera. Greenish-colored Lake Kunni (Lake Abiata) at the upper right lies NE of the Pleistocene caldera. Post-caldera activity produced pyroclastic cones north of the caldera. The small greenish Chitu maar on the SW side of the lake was erupted in an area of Holocene vents along the Corbetti-Shalla fissure system extending north from Corbetti caldera. Fumarolic activity continues on the southern and eastern shores of the lake.

Dukana.jpg
Pyroclastic cones of the Mega Basalt field dot the center of this NASA Landsat image (with north to the top). The volcanic field, straddling the Ethiopia-Kenya border, which cuts diagonally across the image from the upper left to lower right, is referred to in Kenya as the Dukana volcanic field. The volcanic field includes the 1.8-km-wide Gof Dukana basaltic maar, and about 50 pyroclastic cones with associated lava flows rise to about 150 m above the lava platform in northern Kenya.
