Ambrym volcano (Vanuatu), activity update: 4 active lava lakes

Thursday Sep 09, 2010 10:33 AM | BY: TS & YASHMIN CHEBLI

As our expedition leader Yasmin reports from our ongoing expedition on Vanuatu, exceptionally good weather conditions allowed to observe 4 active lava lakes that are at the moment present on Ambrym volcano: the largest is located in Marum's Mbuwelesu crater at a depth of ca. 400m and has a diameter of around 40 m. The 3 other lava lakes are in the pit crater Niri Mbuwelesu and inside the two pits inside Benbow crater.
