Abstract

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v5i3.104The Mentawai tectonic earthquake (magnitude 6.8 on the Richter Scale) on April 10, 2005 is assumed to trigger Talang volcanic activity that caused an eruption on April 12, 2005. Information on the source mechanism of volcanic earthquakes after the tectonic earthquake is expected to answer question of “Do tectonic earthquakes around the Talang Volcano trigger its volcanic activities?” Epicenter distribution of the volcanic earthquakes between 2007 and 2009 shows a southeast – northwest pattern with dextral strike-slip fault and normal fault mechanisms. The data show that earthquake activities at the Talang Volcano were dominated by local structure movements influenced by regional tectonic movements. Between 2007 and 2009, there were three process stages related to magnitude 6 or larger tectonic earthquakes around the Talang Volcano. First stage was a period before August 16, 2009. In this stage, volcanic fluids rose to the shallower chamber beneath the Talang Volcano. Second stage was a compressional stage and formation of a reverse fault influenced by Mentawai tectonic earthquake on August 16, 2009 and activation of a fault that intersects the Volcano. The third stage was a compresional stage and formation of a reverse fault influenced by Padang tectonic earthquake on September 30, 2009. In this stage, area fracturing was intensified, thereby the fracturing became more intensive. As the result, the accumulated volume and pressure of several tectonic earthquakes were released that caused an increase of eruption column soon after the tectonic earthquake.

Abstract

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v7i4.147Precursor of Lokon Volcano eruptions in 2011 is believed to begin since December 2007 which was marked by increasing number of volcanic earthquakes and gas emission. To support this information, deformation method is used primarily to determine deformation characteristics of Lokon volcanic activity in the period of 2009-2011. The period of analysis is adapted to the presence of GPS data. Displacement rate of Lokon GPS observation points in the period of 2009 - 2011 ranged from 1.1 to 7 cm a year. Strain patterns that occur in the areas are compression surrounding Tompaluan crater and extension in the eastern slope. Location of the pressure source for August 2009 - March 2011 measurement was at a depth of 1800 m beneath Tompaluan crater. Deformation in the Lokon Volcano is characteristized by the compression zone in the summit and crater area caused by magma activity raised into the surface from a shallow magma source which is accompanied by a high release of volcanic gases. Accumulated pressure release and deformation rate as measured in the Lokon Volcano remain low.

Abstract

In addition to home for seven active volcanoes, West Java, is also having high tectonic activity, owing to its close distance from subduction zone and crustal fault. The Cimandiri Fault extends about 100 km from southwest to the northeast ward through Sukabumi area. Gede Volcano with high seismic activity is sitting 20 km north of Cimandiri Fault. Shallow earthquakes often occur around Gede volcano and their sources are fairly close to the Cimandiri valley. Feltearthquakes occurred in 2007, 2010, 2012 and 2014,where the source supposed to be around Cimandiri valley,were followed by volcano-tectonic (VT) earthquake swarms in Gede Volcano. These swarms probably indicate that there is a linkage between tectonic and Gede volcano activities. However, the swarms were followed by less significant changes in volcanic activity. GPS data during measurement period of 2006-2015 show the existence of a fault with main stress in the northwest-southeast direction. The mechanism of the Cimandiri Fault is reverse fault with sinistral slip component and sinistral strike slip fault, while the swarm of VT earthquakes in Gede Volcano is dominated by reverse and normal faults. Tectonic earthquakes may trigger nearby volcanic eruption; it depends on the state of magma of the volcano and the magnitude of the earthquake.Keyword: Tectonic, Cimandiri fault, VT earthquake, Gede Volcano.
