Chokaisan

Stratovolkan · Japan · 2236 m

Chokaisan is the largest of the NE Honshu volcanoes, seen here from the NE. The volcano is comprised of two main overlapping edifices, the younger eastern area contains the large collapse scarp that was the source of the Kisakata debris avalanche, seen here opening to the N. Smaller cones later filled much of the area near the rear scarp.

Ringkasan geologi

Massive Chokaisan volcano is composed of two overlapping stratovolcanoes with a conical profile that inspired the local names of Akita-Fuji or Dewa-Fuji. The summit of the gently sloping western edifice (Nishi-Chokaisan) is cut by a large scarp open to the south that contains lava domes. The younger eastern volcano (Higashi-Chokaisan) began forming about 20,000 years ago, and also has a large scarp, breached to the north. During an eruption about 2,600 years ago it was the source of the voluminous Kisakata debris avalanche, which reached the Pacific coast. Two post-caldera lava domes have been constructed at the upper SE end of the caldera. Intermittent reports of eruptions date back to the 6th century CE.

Gunung Chōkai adalah gunung berapi aktif yang terletak di perbatasan selatan prefektur Akita dan prefektur Yamagata di wilayah Tōhoku, Jepang. Gunung ini memiliki ketinggian sekitar 2.236 m. Karena bentuknya yang simetris dan ukurannya yang besar, gunung ini juga dikenal sebagai Dewa no Fuji (出羽の富士) [2] atau oleh penduduk asli Akita disebut sebagai Akita Fuji. Gunung Chōkai dianggap keramat oleh pengikut cabang Shugendō dari Shinto dan populer di kalangan pejalan kaki.
