As everyone knows now, an Andean volcano in Chile, Chaitén, erupted this past week. We've all seen those spectacular images and The Volcanism Blog continues to deliver great update posts.
So, for this week's Sea-Floor Sunday, I quickly created this simple image using GeoMapApp. I thought a regional map of topography and bathymetry might be a nice complement to all the other images for Chaitén.

Geology.com has a great page with maps, images, and video for the Chaitén eruption here.
The Volcanism Blog has a post summarizing Chaitén web resources as well.
