Mount Bambouto is a polygenic stratovolcano of the Cameroon Volcanic Line,built between 21 Ma and 4.5 Ma.It is situated approximately 200 km NE of Mount Cameroon,between 09°55′and 10°15′longitude east and,05°25′and 05°50′latitude north.The volcano covers an area of 500 km~2 and culminates at 2740 m at Meletan dome and bears a collapsed caldera at the summit (13×8 km).Mount Bambouto is characterized by several natural hazards of different origins: meteorological,such as landslides and rock falls;anthropogenic,such as bushfires,tribal wars and deforestation;and volcanological,such as volcanic eruption.The thematic map shows that 55-60%of the caldera has high probability of occurrence of mass movement.The caldera has a high population density(3000 inhabitants),which increases the level of risk,evaluated at approximately $US3.8 million for patrimony,3000 civilian deaths and destruction of biodiversity.
Mount Bambouto is a polygenic stratovolcano of the Cameroon Volcanic Line, built between 21 Ma and 4.5 Ma. It is situated around 200 km NE of Mount Cameroon, between 09 ° 55’and 10 ° 15’longitude east and, and 05 ° 25’and 05 ° 50’latitude north. The volcano covers an area of 500 km ~ 2 and culminates at 2740 m at Meletan dome and bears a collapsed caldera at the summit (13 × 8 km) .Mount Bambouto is characterized by several natural hazards of different origins: meteorological, such as landslides and rock falls; anthropogenic, such as bushfires, tribal wars and deforestation; and volcanological, such as volcanic eruption. the thematic map that 55-60% of the caldera has high probability of occurrence of mass movement The caldera has a high population density (3000 inhabitants), which increases the level of risk, evaluated at approximately $ US3.8 million for patrimony, 3000 civilian deaths and destruction of biodiversity.
