| Volcano number: | 225050 |
|---|---|
| Region: | Africa and Red Sea |
| Country: | Sudan |
| Geodetic measurements? | No |
| Measurement method(s): | No measurements |
| Characteristics of deformation: | There have been no geodetic measurements at the 5000 sq km Meidob Volcanic Field, which contains nearly 700 vents. The youngest dated eruptions are thought to be from around 5000 years ago, which produced a lava flow and tuff ring. |
