The eruptions produce lava, fragments (Bombs, Blocks, Lapilli & Anh). This view shows, upper left, the eruptive centre (G.Jadi) from 4km distance. The smoking ashey deposit in the centre has been deposited from a high density burning gas cloud (Nude Ardente) of 25/4/82. The foreground shows a loosely consolidated mud and boulder deposit (lahar).
The topographic reconnaissance survey was carried out by us in March 15, 1983. The survey has utilized the modest available equipment for surveying, e.i. magnetic geologic compass and range finder. Altimeter was also used to determine the elevation. The survey was done in the morning between 7.00 to 8.00 am.

Pada bulan Juni 1990 dilakukan pengamatan visual di sekitar kawah G.Slamet, pengamatan ini dimaksudkan untuk mengetahui dan membuktikan apakah ada hubungan antara rekaman gempa dengan kegiatan di sekitar kawah, yaitu dengan melakukan pendakian ke puncak G.Slamet.
Jumlah gempa vulkanik dangkal G.Slamet terus meningkat sejak tanggal 17 Januari hingga Maret 1991, kemudian disusul oleh peningkatan jumlah gempa permukaan.
Pumice flow of the 1883 Krakatau eruption occurs It at Small Rakata, Rakata and Sertung Islands, those which roughly correspond to the wall of Krakatau caldera, Indonesia. significantly differs in both mineral and chemical compositions against any other volcanic rock or ejecta of the Krakatau Group, those of which belong to Miyashiro's (1974) tholeiitic series. Meanwhile, lithic fragments of gr…
Krakatau Volcanic Complex located in Sunda Strait, Indonesia, erupted catastrophically in 1883. The eruption was preceeded by the increasing number of seismicity during the last 7 years prior to the eruption. The initial stage of the eruption was indicated by the ash outburst of Perbu- atan volcano in May and followed by another activity in the area south of Danan Volcano in July, 1883. Ashes i…
