Indonesian Volcano

Indonesia is the land of volcanoes.This country is the world's largest volcanic area, of which hundreds volcanoes are still active. Every years, there are always some eruptions with different type of eruption, from Strambolic to Plinian type of eruption.Most eruption is mostly Central Eruption.History of eruption of Indonesian volcano also recorded Linier Eruption in East Java, the home of Java's Volcanoes.

FEATURE AND TYPE

Most volcanoes is Strato with medium power of eruption. Past largest eruption recorded by Tambora, then Krakatau,also Merapi which it's volcanic material burred some temples of Java and forced the king to migrated.Type eruption of Indonesian volcano is not static,may change any time from Volcano Type to Strambolic and from Merapi Type to Plinian Type and so on due to effect of changes of one or some variable factors such us magma chamber dept, gas pressure level and lava thickness.

EARLY WARNING SYSTEM
Most very active volcanoes are monitored, and Indonesian volcano early warning system had been already established to warns citizen and visitors.

The early warning system consist on 4 levels.Seeing from perspective of volcanic hazard, hike up summit of active volcano on Level 1 is considered safe, while on Level 2, climbing up summit is normally should be done under consultation to Indonesian authorized board. On level 3, climbing up summit is normally prohibited by local authority for safety reason.

VOLCANIC HAZARDS

Indonesian volcanoes have two kinds of Volcanic Hazard;1) Primary Hazard, and 2) Secondary Hazard. Primary Hazard directly related to magmatic activity of the volcano such us eruption.While Secondary Hazard is not directly related to magmatic activity of the volcanoes such us Banjir Lahar (Lahar Flood),and avalanche which are normally caused by high intensity of rain on summit zone.After intense rainfall, the gas sulphure also may accumulated higher due to evaporation effect.Extra careful is required to be on summit zone on such momentum.
