Yali Caldera 

The Yali Caldera is a volcanic caldera located in the Aegean Sea, Greece, formed by a series of explosive eruptions during the Quaternary period. The caldera is significant in volcanology and geothermal studies for its active geothermal fields, its potential for future volcanic activity, and its role in shaping the geology of the region.
