Calderas of Russia

Basalt

Basalt is an aphanitic (fine-grained) extrusive igneous rock formed from the rapid cooling of low-viscosity lava rich in magnesium and iron (mafic lava) exposed at or very near the surface of a rocky planet or moon.

See Ichinsky and Basalt

Caldera

A caldera is a large cauldron-like hollow that forms shortly after the emptying of a magma chamber in a volcanic eruption.

See Ichinsky and Caldera

Dacite

Dacite is a volcanic rock formed by rapid solidification of lava that is high in silica and low in alkali metal oxides.

See Ichinsky and Dacite

Fumarole

A fumarole (or fumerole) is a vent in the surface of the Earth or another rocky planet from which hot volcanic gases and vapors are emitted, without any accompanying liquids or solids.

See Ichinsky and Fumarole

Glacier

A glacier is a persistent body of dense ice that is constantly moving downhill under its own weight.

See Ichinsky and Glacier

Holocene

The Holocene is the current geological epoch, beginning approximately 11,700 years ago.

See Ichinsky and Holocene

Ice cap

In glaciology, an ice cap is a mass of ice that covers less than of land area (usually covering a highland area).

See Ichinsky and Ice cap

Kamchatka Krai

Kamchatka Krai (Kamchatskiy kray) is a federal subject of Russia (a krai), situated in the Russian Far East.

Kamchatka Peninsula

The Kamchatka Peninsula (poluostrov Kamchatka) is a peninsula in the Russian Far East, with an area of about.

Lava

Lava is molten or partially molten rock (magma) that has been expelled from the interior of a terrestrial planet (such as Earth) or a moon onto its surface.

See Ichinsky and Lava

Lava dome

In volcanology, a lava dome is a circular, mound-shaped protrusion resulting from the slow extrusion of viscous lava from a volcano.

Pleistocene

The Pleistocene (often referred to colloquially as the Ice Age) is the geological epoch that lasted from to 11,700 years ago, spanning the Earth's most recent period of repeated glaciations.

See Ichinsky and Pleistocene

Rhyodacite

Rhyodacite is a volcanic rock intermediate in composition between dacite and rhyolite.

Sredinny Range

Sredinny Range (meaning Middle Range) is a mountain range on the Kamchatka Peninsula of Russia. Ichinsky and Sredinny Range are Kamchatka Krai geography stubs.
