Global Volcanism Program | Image GVP-12585

The Harras of Dhamar volcanic field is shown in this December 2019 Planet Labs satellite image monthly mosaic (N is at the top; this image is approximately 51 km across). The field contains many scoria cones and associated lava flows, with some older obsidian lava flows. Many of the cones have amphitheater-shaped craters due to flank collapse or rafting.
