The 43 pages that link to Caldera basin, each with the reason it gives.
StratovolcanoCompared with: Calderas are collapse features, not the steep cone defined by stratovolcano structure.
Volcanic islandRelated: Collapse after major eruptions can reshape an island’s summit and create a caldera.
Impact craterCompared with: Calderas can be circular, but their collapse structures distinguish them from impact excavations.
Volcanic craterCompared with: Calderas are generally much larger and more collapse-dominated than ordinary craters.
Impact crateringCompared with: Calderas are collapse structures, unlike craters excavated by incoming bodies.
Sierra Madre OccidentalRelated: Caldera-forming eruptions contributed to the region’s extensive ignimbrite deposits.
VolcanoCompared with: A caldera is a volcanic landform, but not necessarily an active vent or cone.
Impact eventCompared with: Its collapse origin distinguishes it from a depression excavated by a collision.
MaarCompared with: Calderas result mainly from collapse, unlike the explosive excavation characteristic of maars.
Volcanic crater lakeNarrower topic: Many of the world's largest volcanic lakes occupy calderas.
Mount PinatuboBroader topic: The summit collapsed into a caldera as magma was withdrawn in 1991.
Yellowstone CalderaNarrower topic: Yellowstone is a caldera produced by collapse after enormous eruptions.
Fissure ventCompared with: Calderas are collapse structures, whereas fissure vents are eruptive openings.
Mount KilimanjaroRelated: Kibo contains a caldera formed during its volcanic history.
Mount TamboraBroader topic: The 1815 eruption emptied part of Tambora’s magma system and left its broad summit caldera.
SantoriniNarrower topic: Santorini is a conspicuous island example of this landform.
Olympus MonsNarrower topic: Olympus Mons’s nested summit depressions are calderas, not impact craters.
Taupō Volcanic ZoneBroader topic: Several major volcanic centers in the zone are calderas created by large magma withdrawals.
Tibesti MountainsBroader topic: Calderas such as the one at Emi Koussi record major volcanic episodes in the range.
Lake TobaNarrower topic: Lake Toba is a water-filled example of this volcanic landform.
Mount AsoNarrower topic: This landform accounts for the vast basin surrounding Aso’s central cones.
1883 eruption of KrakatoaRelated: Collapse of Krakatoa’s volcanic structure helped displace seawater and produce tsunamis.
Mount PaektuNarrower topic: Paektu’s summit basin is a prominent example of this landform.
Santorini calderaNarrower topic: Santorini’s basin is one example of this collapse structure.
Craters of the Moon National Monument and PreserveRelated: The monument includes volcanic depressions that help explain the field’s eruptive history.
São Miguel IslandRelated: Several of the island’s celebrated lakes occupy calderas.
SupervolcanoBroader topic: Collapse of the roof above an emptied magma system can create the vast basin left by a supereruption.
Terceira IslandBroader topic: Terceira’s interior includes caldera landscapes formed by volcanic collapse.
Crater Lake National ParkNarrower topic: Crater Lake fills the caldera left by Mount Mazama.
Emi KoussiRelated: A large caldera marks Emi Koussi’s summit.
HaleakalāCompared with: Haleakalā’s summit depression is often called a crater, but erosion—not summit collapse—formed it.
KoryakskyCompared with: Koryaksky is a prominent cone rather than a volcano defined by a collapse basin.
Lake TaupōNarrower topic: This landform explains the lake’s broad, steep-sided volcanic basin.
Minoan eruptionRelated: The eruption emptied and destabilized the volcano, contributing to Thera’s caldera.
Raoul IslandNarrower topic: Raoul Island’s defining landform is one example of this collapse structure.
Complex volcanoRelated: Caldera collapse can disrupt an edifice and create space for later vents.
Daisetsuzan Volcanic GroupRelated: Caldera formation helps explain the group’s broad craters and complex volcanic landscape.
GalerasRelated: Galeras occupies a caldera created by earlier volcanic collapse.
Île Saint-PaulBroader topic: The island’s central flooded depression is a volcanic caldera.
Jebel MarraNarrower topic: Deriba is the defining example of this landform within Jebel Marra.
Lake MashūNarrower topic: Mashū Caldera is one example of this volcanic landform.
MenengaiNarrower topic: Menengai’s broad depression is the defining landform produced by its volcanic collapse.
Mount SidleyRelated: A prominent caldera marks Mount Sidley’s summit.
