Halla (Shield) · last erupted 1007
Tectonic setting: Intraplate / Continental crust (> 25 km)
The massive Halla shield volcano forms much of the 40 x 80 km Cheju (Jeju) Island, which lies 90 km S of the Korean Peninsula. Eruptions during the Pliocene and Pleistocene built a lava plateau above the roughly 100-m-deep continental shelf on which the basaltic-to-trachytic edifice was constructed. A 400-m-wide crater truncates the summit. About 360 late-Pleistocene and Holocene basaltic cones ac…

Current GOES X-ray flux class
Solar wind speed and magnetic field strength indicate current space weather activity. Elevated or storm-level readings can disrupt satellites, GPS accuracy, and power grids. This is a planetary-scale signal, not specific to this location — typical quiet conditions run under 400 km/s wind speed and under 5 nT magnetic field.
