Geological Summary

The Otdelniy shield volcano, considered early Holocene by Masurenkov (1980), lies east of the Savan River, across from the Pleistocene Savan volcano. It, along with adjacent shield volcanoes and a large group of late-Pleistocene to Holocene basaltic pyroclastic cones, is about halfway between Khodutka and Opala volcanoes. Three groups of late-Pleistocene to Holocene pyroclastic cones and associated lava fields are also located along a roughly 20-km-wide area between the Opala and Savan rivers, SE, S, and SW of Opala. This was not included by Ponomareva et al. (2007) in their review of Holocene volcanoes in Kamchatka.

Eruptive History

The Global Volcanism Program is not aware of any Holocene eruptions from Otdelniy. If this volcano has had large eruptions (VEI >= 4) prior to 12,000 years ago, information might be found on the Otdelniy page in the LaMEVE (Large Magnitude Explosive Volcanic Eruptions) database, a part of the Volcano Global Risk Identification and Analysis Project (VOGRIPA).

This compilation of synonyms and subsidiary features may not be comprehensive. Features are organized into four major categories: Cones, Craters, Domes, and Thermal Features. Synonyms of features appear indented below the primary name. In some cases additional feature type, elevation, or location details are provided.

Otdelniy is a small low-relief cone in southern Kamchatka, shown in the center of this October 2020 Planet Labs satellite image monthly mosaic (N is at the top; this image is approximately 14 km across). The central area has several small scoria cones with summit craters, with one cone on the southern flank having nested craters.

WOVOdat
   Single Volcano View
   Temporal Evolution of Unrest
   Side by Side Volcanoes

WOVOdat is a database of volcanic unrest; instrumentally and visually recorded changes in seismicity, ground deformation, gas emission, and other parameters from their normal baselines. It is sponsored by the World Organization of Volcano Observatories (WOVO) and presently hosted at the Earth Observatory of Singapore.

GVMID Data on Volcano Monitoring Infrastructure The Global Volcano Monitoring Infrastructure Database GVMID, is aimed at documenting and improving capabilities of volcano monitoring from the ground and space. GVMID should provide a snapshot and baseline view of the techniques and instrumentation that are in place at various volcanoes, which can be use by volcano observatories as reference to setup new monitoring system or improving networks at a specific volcano. These data will allow identification of what monitoring gaps exist, which can be then targeted by remote sensing infrastructure and future instrument deployments.

Users can customize a variety of filters and options in the left panel. Note that if there are no stations are known the map will default to show the entire world with a "No data matched request" error notice.
