Kie Besi

Stratovolkan · Indonesia · 1357 m

Makian volcano forms a 10-km-wide island near the southern end of a chain of volcanic islands off the western coast of Halmahera.  The northern of two prominent valleys that extend from the summit is prominent in this photo.  The large 1.5-km-wide summit crater containing a small lake on the NE side gives the 1357-m-high peak a flat-topped profile.  Violent eruptions from Makian volcano, also known as Kie Besi, have devastated villages on the island.

Ringkasan geologi

Kie Besi volcano, forming the 10-km-wide Makian island off the west coast of Halmahera, has been the source of infrequent, but strong eruptions that have devastated villages on the island. The large 1.5-km-wide summit crater, containing a small lake on the NE side, gives the peak a flat-topped profile. Two prominent valleys extend to the coast from the summit crater on the north and east sides. Four cones are found on the western flanks. Eruption have been recorded since about 1550; major eruptions in 1646, 1760-61, 1861-62, 1890, and 1988 caused extensive damage and many fatalities.
