August and September 1983 rockfalls from the active dome of lava were continued to be observed traveling a maximum distance of 1.4 k from the summit. Seismic activity during August - September 1983 was similar to that of the previous month. Multi-phase events recorded by the seismo graph at the Babadan field observatory were relatively proportional to those rockfalls events mentioned above.

Seismicity continued at a low level during June, and no glowing clouds were observed. The number of rockfalls from the lava dome decreased; they traveled a maximum distance of 1800 meters from the active part of the dome. No significant change was observed in the frequency of multi-phase earthquakes, which remained low. Repeated photography on June 28 and 29 showed that the flow rate and extrus…
