However, no published petrogenetic study focuses mainly on these products. The Rombongan eruption in 1944 and Barujari eruptions in pre-1944, 1966, 1994, 2004, and 2009 produced basaltic andesite pyroclastic materials and lava flows. A total of thirty-one samples were analyzed, including six samples for each period of eruption except from 2004 (only one sample). The samples were used for petrography, whole-rock geochemistry, and trace and rare earth element analyses. The Rombongan and Barujari lavas are composed of calc-alkaline and high K calc-alkaline porphyritic basaltic andesite. The magma shows narrow variation of SiO2 content that implies small changes during its generation. The magma that formed Rombongan and Barujari lavas is island-arc alkaline basalt. Generally, data show that the rocks are enriched in Large Ion Lithophile Elements (LILE: K, Rb, Ba, Sr, and Ba) and depleted in High Field Strength Elements (HFSE: Y, Ti, and Nb) which are typically a suite from a subduction zone. The pattern shows a medium enrichment in Light REE and relatively depleted in Heavy REE. The processes are dominantly controlled by fractional crystallization and magma mixing. All of the Barujari and Rombongan lavas would have been produced by the same source of magma with little variation in composition caused by host rock filter process. New flux of magma would likely have occurred from pre-1944 until 2009 period that indicates slightly decrease and increase of SiO2 content. The Rombongan and Barujari lava generations show an arc magma differentiation trend.

The subduction zone was formed when the Indian oceanic plate was subducted beneath the Eurasian continental plate. This activity caused the formation of volcanoes along the Sunda Arc, including the area of East Java. In this study, we aim to identify the inuence of volcanic activities which extends from the west to the east of East Java. We used the data of 1,383 earthquakes, recorded by the 22 stations of the Indonesia Tsunami Early Warning System (InaTEWS) seismic network. We relocated the earthquakes and conducted a tomographic study using SIMULPS12. We then explored the anomalies of P- and S-wave velocities and Vp/Vs ratio. The low-velocity zone was observed in the volcanic area related to the partial melting zone or magma chamber with high Vp/Vs.

  • Volcanic Eruption Impacts Student Worksheet
    Volcanic Eruption Impacts Student Worksheet Explosive and Effusive Volcanoes The type of volcanic eruption is largely determined by magma composition. Flux-mediated melting at subduction zones creates a felsic magma with high levels of carbon dioxide and water. These dissolved gases explode during eruption. Effusive volcanoes have a hotter, more mafic magma with lower levels of dissolved gas, allowing them to erupt more calmly (effusive eruption). Sinabung (Indonesia) Mount Sinabung is a stratovolcano located 40 km from the Lake Toba supervolcano in North Sumatra. It lies along the Sunda Arc, where the Indo-Australian plate subducts beneath the Sunda and Burma plates. After 1200 years of dormancy, Sinabung began erupting intermittently in 2010. Major eruptions have occurred regularly since November 2013. In November and December 2015, ash plumes reached 6 – 11 km in height on multiple occasions. Pyroclastic flows and ashfall blanketed the region in January 2014 and lava flows travelled down the south flank, advancing 2.5 km by April 2014. Pyroclastic flows in February 2014 killed 17 people in a town 3 km from the vent. In June 2015, ash falls affected areas 10 – 15 km from the summit on many occasions. A lahar in May 2016, caused fatalities in a village 20 km from Sinabung. Pyroclastic flows occurred frequently throughout 2016 and 2017 Eruption of Sinabung 6 October 2016 Major eruptions occurred in 2018 and 2019. In (Y Ginsu, public domain) February 2018, an eruption destroyed a lava dome of 1.6 million cubic metres. At least 10 pyroclastic flows extended up to 4.9 km and an ash plume rose more than 16 km in altitude.

We prepared a strain release map for this century. Adjacent to the zones of high strain release, presence of seismically quiet zones was noted. A careful inspection of the depth distribution of the earthquakes revealed that in the eastern Sunda arc, possibly there exists a zone of scarce seismicity at an interme- diate depth. We discussed the probable implications. We also analysed the patterns of temporal distributions of earthquakes at the three different seismotectonic provinces of the Sunda arc—Sumatra, Java, and the Lesser Sunda Islands. We could clearly see that, although the causative geodynamic situations for seismicity vary significantly in space along the length of the arc, the period of increase or decrease in seismicity is largely space invariant. The locally differing levels of seismicity are superposed on the common background of long period seismicity fluctuation. Finally, clustering of seismicity at some patches along the Sunda arc was studied with respect to the altimetric gravity anomaly data. We noted some apparent conformities.

  • Seismic Activity Around and Under Krakatau Volcano, Sunda Arc: Constraints to the Source Region of Island Arc Volcanics
    SEISMIC ACTIVITY AROUND AND UNDER KRAKATAU VOLCANO, SUNDA ARC: CONSTRAINTS TO THE SOURCE REGION OF ISLAND ARC VOLCANICS ALEŠ ŠPI ČÁK , VÁCLAV HANUŠ AND JIŘÍ VAN ĚK Geophysical Institute, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Prague, Czech Republic * ABSTRACT There is general agreement that calc-alkaline volcanic rocks at convergent plate margins are genetically related to the process of subduction (Ringwood, 1974; Maaloe and Petersen, 1981; Hawkesworth et al., 1997). However, opinions on the mode and site of generation of primary magma for island arc volcanism differ substantially. The site of generation of calc-alkaline magma is thought to be either in the mantle wedge (Plank and Langmuir, 1988; McCulloch and Gamble, 1991) or in the subducting slab (White and Dupré, 1986; Defant and Drummond, 1990; Edwards et al., 1993; Ryan and Langmuir, 1993). We present seismological evidence in favour of the latter concept. A distinctive seismicity pattern around and under the Krakatau volcano was identified during systematic studies of the SE Asian convergent plate margins by means of global seismological data. A column-like cluster of events, probably associated with the dynamics of the volcano, is clearly separated from the events in the Wadati-Benioff zone. The accuracy of hypocentral determinations of the events of the cluster does not differ from the accuracy of the events belonging to the subducting slab. The depths of the cluster events vary from very shallow to about 100 km without any apparent discontinuity. On the other hand, there is a pronounced aseismic gap in the Wadati-Benioff zone directly beneath the volcano at depths between 100-150 km.

In order to see through this crustal noise, we present intracrystal Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS) δ18O values in clinopyroxene from Merapi, Kelut, Batur, and Agung volcanoes in the Sunda arc, Indonesia, under which the thickness of the crust decreases from ca. 30 km at Merapi to ≤20 km at Agung. Here we show that mean clinopyroxene δ18O values decrease concomitantly with crustal thickness and that lavas from Agung possess mantle-like He-Sr- Nd-Pb isotope ratios and clinopyroxene mean equilibrium melt δ18O values of 5.7 ‰ (±0.2 1 SD) indistinguishable from the δ18O range for Mid Ocean Ridge Basalt (MORB). The oxygen isotope composition of the mantle underlying the East Sunda Arc is therefore largely unaf- fected by subduction-driven metasomatism and may thus represent a sediment-poor arc end-member. 1 Department of Earth Sciences, Natural Resources and Sustainable Development (NRHU), Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden. 2 Department of Geosciences, Swedish Museum of Natural History, Stockholm, Sweden. 3 Faculty of Geological Engineering, Universitas Padjajaran (UNPAD), Bandung, Indonesia. 4 Institute of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Freiburg, Freiburg, im Breisgau, Germany.

The The migration of arc magmatism that is a fundamental aspect of plate tectonics may reflect Toba caldera that occurs in the transition area the complex interaction between subduction zone processes and regional tectonics. Here we (Fig. 1A) has been a research focus because of report new observations on volcanic migration from northwestern Sumatra, in the westernmost its super-eruptions and environmental impacts Sunda arc, characterized by an oblique convergent boundary between the Indo-Australian (see Chesner [2012] for a review). and Eurasian plates. Our study indicates that in northwestern Sumatra, volcanism ceased at As synthesized by Barber et al. (2005), K-Ar 15–10 Ma on the southern coast and reignited to form a suite of active volcanoes that erupt ages obtained mainly by Bellon et al.
