Foumbot, Cameroon
Lake Monoun
Lake Monoun is a crater lake in West Province, Cameroon, that lies in the Oku Volcanic Field. On 15 August 1984, a limnic eruption occurred at the lake, which resulted in the release of a large amount of carbon dioxide that killed 37 people. At first, the deaths remained unexplained, and causes such as terrorism were suspected.
