The
Macolod Corridor is an important geological feature for several reasons. First, it is a zone of active volcanism, which poses a significant hazard to the surrounding population. Second, the corridor is located at the junction of several tectonic elements, which makes it an ideal place to study
61:
The tectonic setting of the
Macolod Corridor is complex and not fully understood. Several models have been proposed to explain its formation, but no single model is universally accepted. One model suggests that the corridor is a
