Located at the subduction zone between the Eurasian and the > Indo-Australian Plate, the dominant magmatic mechanism of Merapi is > andesitic, i.e. explosive. Large eruptions, usually classified by a volcanic > eruption index (VEI) of 3, occur every 30 years. The largest event in > historical times was a VEI = 4 eruption in 1872. Pyroclastic flows with a > length between 2 km and 8 km occur about once per year. > > Even small volcanic events are a permanent danger to life and limb within > the densely populated area at the flanks of the volcano. A paroxysmal > eruption would immediately endanger more than one million of inhabitants in > the region around Yogyakarta, about 35 km south of the summit. Another > potential danger are mudflows (Lahars) that occur during the rainy session > and may reach distances up to 20 km. Due to these reasons Merapi has been > classified as a high-risk volcano and was included into the list of 15 > Decade Volcanoes by the International Association of Volcanology and > Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI). > > Since more than 60 years Merapi's state of activity is observed > systematically. During the 30ies the Dutch colonial government established > five observation posts around Merapi, equipped with seismographs and > meteorological sensors. From here, observers monitored Merapi's activity > visually and acoustically, a procedure that is kept until nowadays. > International cooperation featured a considerable enhancement of the > observation capabilities at the beginning of the 80ies. Integrated projects, > interdisciplinary observations and international cooperation are essential > in order to make progress in exploring the nature of an active > stratovolcano, and coping with socio-economic impact and reducing > catastrophic consequences of volcanic events. Following this strategy, > volcano research on Merapi has been considerably intensified during the last > decade by the activities within numerous national and international > projects. > The symposium is addressed to any scientist working on Merapi as well as in > the field of "Merapi type" volcano research in the world. It is considered > to provide a platform for presenting the results of the wide activities, > including volcano tourism, to promote national and international cooperation > between the involved institutions. > > SUBJECT > eruption history and magma development > mechanism of the explosive behavior > the internal geophysical structure of strato volcanoes > volcano monitoring > volcano hazard and risk mitigation > volcano environment > > LOCATIOM & DATE > The symposium will be held in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, February 18 to Feb. 20, > 2003. > Following the conference a 1-day field trip will be organized to visit > Merapi volcano, Dieng volcano complex, and Bromo Volcano. > > CALL FOR PAPERS > Contributions (oral or poster) concerning any aspect of Merapi type volcano > research are welcome.
