Summary

Description
English: This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 9 February 2021, shows part of the Aysén region in Chile where a new active volcano has recently been discovered. The Aysén region is located in Chilean Patagonia. It is one of the most active geodynamic areas of the region. Researchers from the University of Chile, following a multidisciplinary approach, have identified a previously unknown volcanic caldera about 40 km southeast of Puerto Aysén. The volcano, called Mate Grande, is a partially collapsed volcanic system comparable in dimensions to Mt. Vesuvius. The caldera is 5 km in diameter. According to the researchers, who published their findings in the Nature journal, the volcano is active and needs careful seismic and volcanological monitoring. The open data from the Copernicus missions provide data that allow the state of volcanoes worldwide to be monitored with great accuracy.
