Köppen climate type:
Small volcanic province.
It is "a half-eroded structure, 21 – 19.5 Ma in age. The remnants occupy 140 km2 and suggest an original volcanic field ∼14 km3 in volume. The eruptive sequence, fed by dykes, plugs and compound centres ranges up to 350 m thick. Sodic, metaluminous trachytes predominate (...). Minor evolved basalts (mugearite and ne hawaiite) and low Si-rhyolites form <5% of the province." (Sutherland et al., 2005).
