This gallery present satellite images of volcanoes made available through the Copernicus Sentinel satellite system (https://sentinel.esa.int/web/sentinel/), the European Union's Earth observation program. The European Commission implements this program in partnership with the Member States, the European Space Agency (ESA), the European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT), the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), EU Agencies, and Mercator Océan. The information services provided are free and openly accessible. Sentinel imagery provides a level of spatial coverage, with both visual and infrared data, that has significantly improved our ability to identify eruptive activity at volcanoes around the world. There are 101 images available.

Several scoria cones and lava flows of the Elmenteita Badlands volcanic center are visible in this 5 November 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top; this image is approximately 24 km across). It contains scoria cones and lava flows of varying ages, some of which formed after the 10,000-year-old high-stand of Lake Elmenteita.

The Menengai shield volcano contains a roughly 8 x 12 km caldera with 300-m-high caldera walls, seen in this 28 November 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top; this image is approximately 25 km across). Caldera formation occurred during two explosive eruptions, and since then there have been more than 70 events producing lava flows, pumice deposits, and scoria cones. The city of Nakuru lies at the bottom of the image, south of the caldera.

Part of the Segererua Plateau is shown in this 21 September 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top; the image is approximately 23 km across). The plateau contains lava flows, maars, and craters along an area approximately 50 km in length. Several craters are visible across this image.

The vegetated Tepi volcanic field contains lava flows, scoria cones, and craters, located in Ethiopia, W of the Eastern Rift Valley volcanoes. Bishan Waka or Lake Kabo has filled the crater near the center of this 3 March 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top; this image is approximately 16 km across).

Three maars of the Bilate River Field are seen in this 31 October 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top): Budamado Hayk at the top, T’ido Hayk in the middle, and Bode Ameda Hayk below. The field is within the Main Ethiopia Rift, W of Awassa. This image is approximately 29 km across.

The East Zway (or East Ziway) volcanic field has over 50 mapped cones and maars, located E and SE of Ziway Lake in the top left of this 15 November 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top; this image is approximately 21 km across). The field is within the Wonji Fault Belt in the Main Ethiopian Rift and NE-SW and NNE-SSW faults are visible here.

Tullu Moje has produced both mafic and silicic eruptions, with silicic volcanism emplacing explosive deposits and thick obsidian lava flows, like the flow in the center of this 5 December 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top; this image is approximately 11 km across). Immediately south of the flow is the Tullu Moje cone with a roughly 700-m-wide crater. The suspected Tullu Moje caldera is south of the Gedemsa caldera.

The 7 x 9 km Gedemsa caldera is located along the Main Ethiopian Rift, east of Koka Lake (left), seen in this 5 December 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top). The caldera has produced ignimbrites, pyroclastic surge, ashfall, and has constructed scoria cones, with a 1-km-wide crater in the eastern portion. A younger lava dome and flow are on the SW flank.

The Melkassa volcanic field is an extensive 15 x 25 km wide group of Pleistocene and Holocene cones and lava flows within the Ethiopian Rift Valley. The darker lava flows are visible in this 10 November 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image, NE of Gedemsa caldera (N is at the top; this image is approximately 23 km across).

The dark rock down the center of this 26 October 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image is a series of lava flows erupted from Hertali, located at the southern end of the Awash Plain and about 50 km NNE of Dofan volcano (N is at the top; this image is approximately 32 km across). Numerous NNE-SSW-trending faults of the Ethiopian Rift are visible along both sides of the flow.

Satellite image courtesy of Copernicus Sentinel Data, 2019. Adwa volcano has a roughly 3 x 4 km caldera at the summit, visible near the center of this 10 November 2019 Sentinel-2 Satellite image (N is at the top). The large eroded edifice (also known as Aabida, Amoissa, or Dabita) is in the southern Afar area immediately east of Ayelu volcano, which lies above and to the left of the darker, younger SW-flank lava flows.

Yangudi is a large eroded volcano in the Addado graben of the northern Ethiopian rift, seen here in this 15 November 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top; this image is approximately 20 km across). The darker areas to the N and S are more recent lava flows and scoria cones, and numerous NNE-SSW-trending faults of the Ethiopian Rift are visible.

Ale Bagu formed on the SW flank of Erta Ale in the Danakil rift, seen in the center of this 3 December 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top; this image is approximately 17 km across). Lava flows from Erta Ale are seen in the NE of this image and lava flows from Hayli Gubbi are to the E (right).

Scoria cones and tuff cones are visible along with lava flows that have reached the coasts on all sides of the island. This island has formed during explosive phreatic eruptions with magma-water interactions, and magmatic eruptions producing lava flows. This island is approximately 18 km in the NE-SW direction.

Zukur is the northern and larger island within the Zukur-Hanish island group in the southern Red Sea, seen here in this 3 December 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image (N is at the top). Scoria cones are visible in this image, along with darker lava flows in the N, NE, and S. The island is approximately 12 km in the E-W direction.
