Observations of Deformation
Volcano number: | 221160 |
---|---|
Region: | Africa and Red Sea |
Country: | Ethiopia |
Geodetic measurements? | Yes |
Deformation observation? | No |
Measurement method(s): | InSAR |
Duration of observation: | 1997-2003 |
Characteristics of deformation: | Keir et al. (2011) processed InSAR data from between 1997-2003 that covered Ayelu to investigate a nearby dyke intrusion. Although a figure of this InSAR data is not included in their paper, they state that no deformation associated with the volcano is observed during this time. |
