Image Caption: Red Sea/Gulf of Aden/Ethiopia. This southwestward view is an
outstanding illustration of the rift triple junction of East
Africa. As the Earth’s crust is stretched over a mangle hotspot,
three rifts are developing at 120deg angles to each other: the Red Sea,
the Gulf of Aden and the Ethiopian rift.
