This report outlines the preliminary account of Mt. Galunggung eruption that took place beginning of April 1982 and continued for several months. After almost 64 years of quiesence Mt Galunggung, located some 350 km souhteast of Jakarta, suddenly erupted at dawn of April 5, 1982. The explosion, heralded by bright glows and lightnings, awakened some 200,000 people living close to the volca-no. A…
Analisa geokimia dan analisa petrografi batuan volkanik gunungapi Galunggung memperlihatkan adanya variasi dari pada senyawa Si02, K20, dan Na20. Seri kekerabatan batuan volkanik adalah arc-tholeiitic suite dengan jenis magmanya andesit basaltic dan basalt. Kedalaman magma antara 137 - 160 km pada zona Benioff dengan temperatur 1250'C - 1350'C.
Erupsi G.Galunggung di wilayah Priangan Timur, Jawa Barat yang berlangsung selama lk. sepuluh bulan sejak 5 April 1982 hingga dengan minggu pertama Januari 1983 terjadi setelah tahun pembentukan kubah lava 1918 (G.Jadi) atau lk. 88 tahun setelah letusan hebat terakhir pada 1894 yang melampaui waktu kritis rata - rata.
This report presents the results of a reconnaissance of the character. relative age, and distribution of products from eruptions in the Dieng Mountains region, central Java. These results are based on an 11-day field reconnaissance of the Dieng Mountains and about 2 1/2 weeks of preliminary preparation, review of pertinent literature, and report writing in Bandung.
n January gas explosions often occurred, ejecting incandescent lava fragments, while eruption clouds rose 1 kilometer above the summit. From Argosuko Obs. (S) reddish glares on the peak of the lava dome could be often observed, while from Gunung Sawur (ESE) and Tawonso ngo (ENE) Observatories they were seen only a few times.
The summit of G. Merapi is formed by a lava-plug; a cratershaped decline, such as the most volcanoes possess, is not present. However it is known,-thanks to the many interest, with which the G. Herapi in the pant century obtained, that the volcano in another stage of eruptive activity certainly owed such a cratershaped decline.
When we venture a calculation of the amount of the ejected ash and punice, then it goes without saying, that we can only estimate. The statements concerning the amount of the fallen-down ash, are mostly inaccurate and incomplete. Moreover, when we are willing to fix the correct amount of ash, we ought to know the specific gravity and to take into account the thickness of the locally fallen ash …
The outbursts are always accompannied by gaseruptions, which escape with thrumbling noise and the foraing of flash of lightnings. From the stories of Junghuhn (see p.95-96) appears, that during earlier outbursts the thunder claps were observed till great distances from the crater (Kalimantan) (Fron Banjarmasin this time also detonations were reported from the Kelut outburst). Also during there …
Bertambah kecil volum air danau kawah G. Kelut, semakin terbatas pula penyebaran lahar letusan. Berdasarkan data di laporan, usaha pengurangan air danau kawah harus dilakukan secepat mungkin sebelum musim penghujan yang akan datang tiba.
Dalam rangka persiapan penyuluhan kegunungapian ulangan di daerah G.Kelut telah dipersiapkan satu tim yang waktu penyelenggaraannya sedang dikoordinasikan dengan Pihak Pemerintah Daerah Tk. II oleh "Scientist in charge" yang bertugas di Pos Pengawasan G.Kelut - Margomulyo.
