Gunung Merbabu is seen here from the south, near the summit of Merapi. It has prominent radial valleys that extend from the summit of Merbabu towards the NW, NE, and SE. Eruptions have occurred during historical time from Merbabu from the summit crater and from a NNW-SSE fissure system that opened across the summit and fed flank lava flows.

Resumen geológico

Gunung Merbabu is a massive forested volcano north of Merapi in central Java. Three prominent radial valleys extend from the summit toward the NW, NNE, and ESE. The most recent magmatic eruptions originated from a NNW-SSE fissure system that cut across the summit and fed the large-volume Kopeng and Kajor lava flows on the N and S flanks, respectively. Moderate explosive eruptions occurred from the summit crater in 1560 and 1797 CE.
