About: Salton Buttes

An Entity of Type: mountain range, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Salton Buttes are a group of volcanoes in California, on the Salton Sea. They consist of a 7-kilometer (4.3 mi)-long row of five lava domes, named Mullet Island, North Red Hill, Obsidian Butte, Rock Hill and South Red Hill. They are closely associated with a fumarolic field and a geothermal field, and there is evidence of buried volcanoes underground. In pre-modern times Obsidian Butte was an important regional source of obsidian.

dbo:abstract
  • The Salton Buttes are a group of volcanoes in California, on the Salton Sea. They consist of a 7-kilometer (4.3 mi)-long row of five lava domes, named Mullet Island, North Red Hill, Obsidian Butte, Rock Hill and South Red Hill. They are closely associated with a fumarolic field and a geothermal field, and there is evidence of buried volcanoes underground. In pre-modern times Obsidian Butte was an important regional source of obsidian. The Salton Buttes lie within the Salton Trough, a tectonic depression formed by the San Andreas Fault and the San Jacinto Faults. The depression forms the northward extension of the Gulf of California, and is separated from it by the Colorado River Delta. A number of geothermal and volcanic features are located in the area, which is a region of active seafloor spreading. While the Salton Buttes were formerly considered to be of the late Pleistocene epoch (which ended with the end of the last glacial maximum), newer dating efforts have determined that all of them formed more recently, during the current Holocene epoch, mostly through effusive eruptions. Future eruptions are possible and could endanger the surroundings. (en)
  • 솔턴 뷰츠 화산(Salton Buttes)은 미국 캘리포니아주 솔턴호 옆에 위치한 화산이다. 샌디에이고에서 약 160km떨어진 곳에 위치한다. 해발고도 -40m로 해수면보다 낮아 소형 화산으로 분류된다. 그러나 여전히 활동을 하는 활화산으로 분류되며, 분화 가능성도 높아지고 있다고 한다. 멀렛 섬, 옵시디언 뷰트, 록 힐 등 여러 종상 화산 봉우리들로 구성되어 있다. 땅속의 마그마로부터 올라오는 지열 덕분에 이화산, 머드팟, 온천, 분기공 등 여러 지열 요소들이 발달하였으며, 이로 인한 지열 발전소도 있다. 최근 샌디에이고에서는 이 화산에서 나오는 강한 유황 냄새를 맡을 수 있었다고 한다.
