Suwanosejima

Estratovolcán · Japan · 796 m

A plume rises above Ontake, the summit crater of Suwanosejima. The 8-km-long island consists of a stratovolcano with two historically active summit craters. The dipping scarp at the top of the image opens towards the sea on the E flank and formed by edifice collapse. This is one of Japan's most frequently active volcanoes and has been in a state of intermittent Strombolian activity since 1949.

Resumen geológico

The 8-km-long island of Suwanosejima in the northern Ryukyu Islands consists of an andesitic stratovolcano with two active summit craters. The summit is truncated by a large breached crater extending to the sea on the E flank that was formed by edifice collapse. One of Japan's most frequently active volcanoes, it was in a state of intermittent Strombolian activity from Otake, the NE summit crater, between 1949 and 1996, after which periods of inactivity lengthened. The largest recorded eruption took place in 1813-14, when thick scoria deposits covered residential areas, and the SW crater produced two lava flows that reached the western coast. At the end of the eruption the summit of Otake collapsed, forming a large debris avalanche and creating an open collapse scarp extending to the eastern coast. The island remained uninhabited for about 70 years after the 1813-1814 eruption. Lava flows reached the eastern coast of the island in 1884. Only about 50 people live on the island.
