As observed on location today, Bromo erupts dense clouds of ash, rising to about 1 km above the crater, drifting east. The emissions fluctuate in intensity with phases of weaker and strong emissions alternating ca. every 20 minutes. The activity is often accompanied by near continuous roaring noises resembling a strong surf. During stronger phases, loud explosions sounds heard in many kilometers distance as well as shock waves rattling windows in nearby villages accompany the eruptions. [alles lesen]

Bromo volcano (East Java, Indonesia), activity update: decreasing ash emission
The ash emission from Bromo has been decreasing in the past days. The volcano still emits a plume to 400-800 m height comprising mostly steam and little ash. The Indonesian Volcanological Survey has downgraded its level to 3 (out of 4). A 2 km exclusion zone is still in place. [alles lesen]

Background:

Gunung Bromo (Mount Bromo) volcano is a small, but active volcanic cinder cone on the Indonesian island of Java. Bromo is located in the center of the Sandsea Caldera, itself only a portion of the larger Tengger Caldera. The Sandsea caldera formed around 8,000 years ago, in what must have been a massive eruption. Subsequent volcanic activity formed the cluster of cinder cones in the caldera’s center, including Bromo.
The historical record indicates eruptions of Bromo every few years since 1804, and geologic evidence indicates eruptions at least several hundred years earlier. The most recent eruption occured in 2004, and tragically killed two tourists.


The image above shows most of the Sandsea Caldera, along with Gunung Bromo and the older volcanoes on the caldera floor. A small plume of steam is visible rising out of Mt. Bromo. Space Imaging’s IKONOS satellite, capable of 4-meter per-pixel color imagery, and 1-meter per-pixel resolution panchromatic imagery, acquired the data on July 8, 2001.
