Lake Nyos, Cameroon

Danau Nyos adalah sebuah danau kawah gunung api di Kamerun, Afrika Barat, terletak di 6°22′N 10°09′E / 6.36°N 10.15°E / 6.36; 10.15. Pada 1986 danau ini melepaskan awan raksasa karbon dioksida, yang mengakibatkan sufokasi (kekurangan oksigen) sampai 1800 orang di desa sekitarnya.

+Lake Nyos fills a roughly circular [[maar]] in the [[Oku Volcanic Field]], an explosion crater caused when a [[lava flow]] interacts violently with [[groundwater]].  The maar is believed to have formed in an eruption about 400 years ago, and is  1,800 m (5,900 feet) across and 208 m (682 feet) deep.  The area has been volcanically active for millions of years - after [[South America]] and [[Africa]] were split apart by [[plate tectonics]] about 110 million years ago, West Africa also experienced rifting, although to a lesser degree.  The rift is known as the [[Mbéré Rift Valley]], and crustal extension has allowed [[magma]] to reach the surface along a line extending through Cameroon.  [[Mount Cameroon]] also lies on this fault line.  Lake Nyos is surrounded by old lava flows and [[pyroclastic flow|pyroclastic]] deposits.
