Type of eruption; |
The eruption of Mount Papandayan throughout the history of human life to date is a phreatic to phreatomagmatic eruption as it did in 2002. Mount Papandayan including volcano type A volcano erupted after 1600, an eruption that occurred in Papandayan volcano recorded in 1772 which claimed the lives of about two thousand souls and eliminate many villages around the area of Mount Papandayan. Activities that occurred in 1772 is a large eruption activity where some of the top of the mountain thrown and hit an area of approximately 250 km, the activity begins with the spewing of a very large fire, and this eruption occurs in the central crater. Hot clouds glide toward the northeast and most of the eruption material is flowed by the Ciparugpug and Cibeureum rivers downstream. |
Topology & Geology; |
Morphological division of Mount Papandayan, characterized by sharp walls and narrow valleys, strong erosion, dense vegetation. The morphology of the body (including the Brungbrung crater, the Manuk Crater, the Nangklah Crater, the New Crater and the Ruslan Valley), is formed by lava flows and pyroclastic flow deposits, radiary flow pattern, foot morphology, characterized by subtle morphology in the northeast and south sectors; berelief is in the south sector, formed by the flow of lava and pyroclastic flow deposits, dendrtitik flow pattern, and Tapalkuda morphology, is a north-eastward depression ranging from Kawah Mas to Cibalong and Cibodas as a result of debris avalanche deposit. The lava flows of the Papandayan Mountain product can be divided into two main groups: lava flows composed of basalt augit hipersten (pilotaxite-based texture, consisting of An56An44 andesin to labradorite An46An54, augit, hypersten, olivine, magnetite in the glasses of the volcano) and andesite lava flows hipersten augit. |
