Healy volcano

Healy volcano

A large submarine volcano on the Kermadec ridge, north of New Zealand, was discovered by undersea surveys, and has been named Healy volcano. It includes a large caldera, and the black cross-hatched area in the image is a reconstruction of what the volcano may have looked like before it erupted and collapsed.
