Batu Tara volcano photos (Flores Sea, Indonesia)

On our latest volcano expedition, we stayed 4 days from 1-4 Nov on Batu Tara volcano. Activity during this time was relatively strong, with frequent small to very large strombolian eruptions.
The following is a series of pictures from eruptions at night. Be sure also to look at a spectacular video of an eruption on our youtube channel. (Photo: Tom Pfeiffer)

A pyroclastic flow occurred early on 4 Nov (local time): at around 2 am local time, a powerful explosion was immediately followed by a short lava-rich, fountain-like explosion that initiated a large incandescent avalanche over the whole width of the sciara, causing also some parts of the upper dome to collapse.
The avalanche turned into a small pyroclastic flow that reached the shore of the sciara and continued above water for approx. 100 m.

Condiciones muy favorables de clima y mar permitieron a la tierra varias veces en la playa estrecha de unos 100 m al sur de la cicatriz del colapso oriental del volcán, el único lugar en la orilla de donde la ventilación y sus erupciones son visibles. Durante nuestra estancia, actividad varía día a día y consistió en ceniza frecuente ventilación, leves erupciones estrombolianas poderoso acompañaron por fuertes detonaciones y expulsión de bombas a varios cientos de metros de altura por encima de la ventilación, situada a unos 500 m elevación interior profundo colapso cicatriz.

Batu Tara volcano expedition June-July 2015: photos & videos

[ocultar]

During our Batu Tara volcano expedition we stayed on the island from 30 June - 4 July 2015 and found the volcano in similar activity (strombolian) as during our other visits in Nov 2012 and 2014. However, during the night 2-3 July and early on 3 July, a phase of increased activity resulted in the formation of small pyroclastic flows caused by collapsing material ejected during the explosion and/or accumulated on the crater rim.
