Stromboli volcano photos

During a visit in mid to late July 2021, Stromboli was showing very regular and typical strombolian activity from several vents. Most notably though, the NE cone produced quite impressive eruptions at intervals of 15-20 minutes. Overall, activity at the volcano in this period was low to medium.

During the first part of June, activity at Stromboli volcano was one of the most intense periods during several years. At most times, up to 6 or 7 vents were active, most notably the two eastern vents, closely followed and sometimes surpassed by the two western vents.
The following pictures were taken on 9, 11, and 16 June, from various viewpoints and give an idea of this activity.

После довольно тихие летние месяцы, Стромболи деятельность взял вверх снова в середине, в конце октября (интересно в то же время с Этна). Следующие фотографии были сделаны во время наших недавних групповые туры в Вулкано, Стромболи и Этна в конце октября и начале ноября 2013 года. Наиболее активную деятельность был из жерла NW (к Ginostra), которые вспыхнули с интервалом 5-15 минут, отправка накаливания материала на высоту до 200-300 м. (Photo: Tom Pfeiffer)

Photographs taken by volcanologist Dr Ingrid Smet when she observed Stromboli’s volcanic activity from 24 to 26 July 2019. During this time span, the volcano remained at a level of higher than usual activity with very frequent Strombolian explosions. Some of these were so strong that at night one could observe the glowing bombs from the village. The lava flows that occurred after the 3 July paroxysm were also still active on the upper parts of the western edge of the Sciara.

In January 2019, magma levels inside Stromboli volcano's conduits rise almost to the rim, producing spectacular activity from several vents. In particular, a large cinder cone has been growing from the NE vent.
The photo shown here illustrate this activity as observed during the evening of 20 Jan 2019. You can find a activity report here.

In August and early September 2011, Stromboli's activity was at unusually strong levels. Powerful explosions from the NE vent often sent bombs to more than 500m high, reaching Pizzo and the Bastimento viewing areas (which remained closed most of the time). Small intracrater lava flows were observed in this period as well. (Photo: Tom Pfeiffer)

During January 2013, Stromboli produced frequent small and a few larger short-lived lava flows from the breached NE crater which reached about half way down the Sciara del Fuoco. The following photos show the activity between 7-15 Jan. (Photo: Tom Pfeiffer)

Photos were taken during 30 Dec 2012 and 2 Jan 2013 from the 400m view point, Pizzo, and Bastimento. The northeastern vent produced very powerful and bright explosions of liquid lava, with ejections into all directions reaching several hundred meters in height and throwing incandescent lava bombs over the upper crater slope.

During our recent Stromboli to Etna tour, our group climbed Stromboli volcano on 15 July with a mountain guide and were lucky to have excellent weather and very strong activity from several vents. In particular, spectacular activity was occurring from the NE cone, which exploded large liquid lava bubbles, showering the outside flank with glowing bombs. (Photo: Tom Pfeiffer)

In July 2009, Stromboli's activity was at normal to high levels, with typical stormbolian eruptions from NW, central and NE vent. The phtos here were taken on July 8 and 14 during exceptionally clear weather (levante and scirocco winds) at the summit. (Photo: Tom Pfeiffer)

Stromboli 2014: explosions and lava flow into the sea

[скрыть]

For the first time since 2007, Stromboli has a new lava flow reaching the sea since 7 August 2014. Some impressions from a visit during 8-12 Aug: (Photo: Tom Pfeiffer)

Stromboli volcano photos: lava flow into the sea August 2014 (32 Images)

After two months of impressive and increasing activity at the summit vents, including several short-lived lava overflows, the magma inside the upper conduits breached the lower flank of the NE crater on the morning of 7 August, causing a massive surge of lava running down the Sciara. Within less than 20 minutes, it reached the sea, for the first time since 2007.
The volcano's plumbing system being "pierced" at a lower point than the summit, the rising magma continued to pour out from the new vent forming a beautiful lava flow. We visited the volcano during 8-12 August: (Photo: Tom Pfeiffer)

Towards the end of May 2014, activity at Stromboli volcano strongly increased as the magma level inside the conduit rose considerably. The following pictures were taken during two climbs to the volcano with official mountain guides on 9 and 10 June, as part of our recent tour to Stromboli and Etna. (Photo: Tom Pfeiffer)

An effusive eruption began on Stromboli on 7 August 2014 and continued into Oct. After the first 5-10 days, lava flows no longer reached the sea, but produced varying channels of active lava flows on the upper parts of the slope. Constant rockfalls from these flows provided a fascinating view especially at night. The following photos were taken during our recent tour to Stromboli and Etna from 5-13 Oct 2014.
