Observations of Deformation
Volcano number: | 263260 |
---|---|
Region: | Indonesia |
Country: | Indonesia |
Geodetic measurements? | Yes |
Deformation observation? | Yes |
Measurement method(s): | InSAR |
Duration of observation: | 2007 to 2009 |
Inferred cause(s) of deformation: | Uncertain |
Characteristics of deformation: | Chaussard and Amelung (2012) have reported an uplift of 8.6cm during the period of observation (mid-2007 to early 2009). The uplift signal has a circular shape that is centred on the edifice that is likely to indicate the arrival of new magma. The shallow-sourced inflation of 1.1km below sea level has so far not resulted in eruption. |
