The lava flow or glowing avalanche form the northern crater at Karangetang as observed on 29 October (image: Pusat Vulkanologi dan Mitigasi Bencana Geologi)The activity at the volcano continues at elevated levels. Eruptions have been intensifying over the past week, mainly from the northern crater. In addition, the local webcam likely detected a new lava flow from the northern crater emerging westward. If not, it might be an occurrence of glowing rockfalls from the vent. The latest Landsat 8-9 thermal imagery (B7-B6-B4 band combination) detected the short lava flow or incandescent avalanche on the western slope.Landsat 8-9 imagery of Karangetang depicts strong thermal anomaly in the northern crater (image: Landsat 8-9)
