The activities and magmatic cycles of the Krakatau Volcanic Complex are closely related to the goology and tectonic position of Strait Sunda, which are more related to Sumatra than to Java. The basoment of Strait Sunda consists of ignimbrites and acid tuffs of 0.1 million year old, and the thormal gradient in and around Sunda Strait is about 6.7°C por 100 meter. Tectonically, strait Sundo is a…
Pada bulan Januari 1990 penulis melakukan pengamatan G. Anak Ranaka dan G. Ile Boleng. G. Anak Ranaka pada posisi dangerft 180°38 30 DF: 8°37 26 LB dan G. Ile Boleng pada posisi geograpi 123°15,5 Вт, 8°20,5 LS. Gunungapi Anak Ranaka muncul pada akhir Desember 1987 , sejak itu dilakukan pengamatan gempa dan visual. Pengamatan gempa menggunakan seismograf RTS - PS2 Jenis gempa yang tercatat…
G. Lewotobi Laki-laki adalah gunungapi yang paling giat di Flores Lewotobi Laki-laki Timur. Dalam sejarah kegiatannya erupsi G. umumnya menghasilkan abu, pasir, lapili dan bongkah. Hanya erupsi dalam tahun 1907, 11909-1940, 1914 dan 1932-1933 diikuti oleh pembentukan kubah lava/aliran lava ( Lampiran 1). Tahun letusan yang diketahui dalam sejarah kegiatannya adalah dalam tahun 1861, 1865, 1868,…
G. Inielika terletak di sebelah Utara kota Bajawa, Kabupaten Ngada, Propinsi NTT. Posisi geografi + 120°58'55" BT dan 8°42'13" LS diambil dari peta U.S.A. letusan terakhir gunung ini tercatat tahun 1905 sedangkan peta situasi yang ada sekarang ini terbuat waktu Belanda masih ada di Indonesia, tercatat tahun 1952, skala 1: 10.000, begitu pula peta topografi 1: 50.000 sampai sekarang belum komp…
Present situation of the Sumatra Island seems to indicate the clockwise rotation of about 40 degrees for Jawa (Fig.1). Ninkovich (1970) proposed a hypothesis that in the Late Cenozoic Sumatra rotated clockwise about 20 degrees and formed the present configuration. Moreover, Sasajima et al (1980) said that after the Triassic until the Early Tertiary, Sumatra should have rotated clockwise by 62.4…
Various discussions have been made by many authors as respects the eruption mechanism of Krakatau caldera (e.g. Williams, 1941; Yokoyama, 1981; Self and Rampino, 1982; Yokoyama, 1982). Accumulation of geophysical data may provide important information to clarify the problem. Yokoyama and Hadikusumo (1969) have already established the gravity stations Krakatau Islands. The low residual anomalies…
Krakatau voleano which is located at Sunda Strait, Indonesia, catastrophic The is a wellknown volcano in the world, because of its eruption in August 1883, and submarine caldera came into existence. Relatively in a short time, fortyfour years later, in Docamber 1927, ronewed activity was begun, started by submarine oxplosions. eruption was a commencement for the first periode of a now cycle of …
Four pedons of Brown Soils originating from material prior to the 1883 Krakatau eruption have been identified in Rakata, exposed or buried under the thick layer of pumiceous anh. Three of those pedons have been studied in terms of their physico-chemiopl proper ties, cand and clay mineralogy. The results indicate that the Brown Soils have been developed from basalto-andesitic volcanic motoria…
A remote sensing system for detecting chlorophyll concentration have been developed by DFVLR in cooperation with LAPAN. During Indonesian Gorman joint experiment on Septomber 1982, and in connection with centenary of nount Krakatau eruption Sunda which are selected trialing the sonsor. Strait is one of test aren along the line from Morak to Krakatau is presented in this paper.
Results on the studies of biotic communities on coastal area of Sumur are in part presented in separate papers in this symposium (see Kartawinata et al. 1983a, b; Hartoto et al, 1983; Sujatno et al. 1983; Wowor et al. 1983). The present paper is cocerned with the results of the inventory of plant. species cultivated in homegardens in the village of Sumur, Banten, West Java.
