Description
English: Lolobau volcano (left) sits astride the western rim of a caldera that formed about 12,000 years ago on the 8 x 13 km, oval-shaped Lolobau Island. It is seen here from the south across Expectation Strait along the NE coast of New Britain. The peak at the right lies on the eastern rim of the 6-km-wide caldera. Several vents within the caldera, occupying an E-W-trending line on the eastern flank of Mount Lolobau, have been active during historical time.
