Accepted 30 January 2011 Three eruptive phases occurred on February 18th, March 30th and April 2nd, 2007, at the summit, 2,000 m, Available online 5 March 2011 and 600 m high on the South-East flank respectively, illustrating the three types of eruptions defined for the current Piton de la Fournaise activity.
