Ozza Mons
Venusian shield volcano
4°30′N 201°00′E / 4.5°N 201°E / 4.5; 201 [1]Ozza Mons is an inactive shield volcano on planet Venus near the equator.[2]
Four temporally variable surface hotspots were discovered at the Ganiki Chasma rift zone near volcanoes Ozza Mons and Maat Mons in 2015, suggestive of present volcanic activity.[3][4] However, interpreting these types of observations from above the cloud layer correctly is a challenge.[5]
