Imbabura

Imbabura is an idle stratovolcano in northern Ecuador. In spite of the fact that it has not emitted for at any rate 14,000 years, it isn't believed to be wiped out. Imbabura is discontinuously topped with snow and has no lasting glaciers. Covered in volcanic powder, the slants of Imbabura are particularly rich. Notwithstanding cloud woodlands, which are found over the northern Andes to an elevation of 3000 m, the land around Imbabura is widely cultivated. Maize, sugarcane, and beans are for the most part staple yields of the locale. Steers are likewise a significant product, and a great part of the arrive close by Imbabura, particularly the high-height glades over the tree line.

Future pyroclastic streams from any of Imbabura's cones could represent a genuine danger, be that as it may. From the Azaya cone, which faces West, pyroclastic streams could hit the San Pablo lake at the base of the mountain and create pulverizing waves; from the Arteson cone, which faces north, pyroclastic streams could strike the city of Ibarra, with a populace of about 300,000. Hence, Imbabura remains intently checked by volcanologists.
