Doom Mons is located in the Titan's southern hemisphere, between 14–15° south and 40–41° west. [1] It is located within the Aztlan darklands region, [4] possibly connected to the wider Shangri-La dark region, and is adjacent to Sotra Patera, a possible cryovolcanic caldera 1.7 km (1.1 mi) deep.
Strombolian eruptions occurred on 27 June and throughout July and August, producing eruption columns more than 10 km high and shooting rocks 1.4 km from the crater. [ 46 ] [ 38 ] These eruptions produced more than 7 million tonnes of ash, which contaminated water supplies, destroyed crops, and led to the deaths of livestock. [ 54 ]
Mount Stromboli has been in almost continuous eruption for the past 2,000–5,000 years; [6] its last serious one occurred in 1921. [4] A pattern of eruption is maintained in which explosions occur at the summit craters, with mild to moderate eruptions of incandescent volcanic bombs , a type of tephra , at intervals ranging from minutes to hours.
