Volcanic Activity on Semeru 
 
The volcanoes of Java are part of the HYPERLINK 
"http://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/dynamic/fire.html"“Ring of Fire,” an area of 
heightened seismic activity around Pacific Ocean Basin. Just three days after 
an earthquake struck Java, on May 27, 2006, the island’s Semeru Volcano showed 
signs of heightened activity.
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer HYPERLINK 
"http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/";(MODIS) flying onboard NASA’s HYPERLINK 
"http://terra.nasa.gov/"Terra satellite took this picture on May 30, 2006. In 
this image, Semeru’s summit is outlined in red. The outline indicates that 
MODIS detected unusually high surface temperatures. To the west of the summit 
are gray-brown clouds that dissipate as they move westward. These clouds could 
result from volcanic ash emitted by the Semeru Volcano.

ranks among Indonesia’s most active volcanoes. It is Java’s highest volcano, 
rising 3,676 meters (over 12,000 feet) above the nearby coastal plains. Like 
its neighbor Merapi Volcano, it has claimed human lives in historical eruptions.
