This book is a comprehensive compilation of cutting-edge research on Merapi volcano, located on the island of Java, Indonesia. It is one of the most iconic volcanoes in the world, and its study is of vital importance due to its active and dangerous nature. The book integrates results from various natural and social sciences, providing state-of-the-art information on volcano monitoring, the assessment of volcanic hazards, and risk mitigation measures.
Merapi is known for its pyroclastic density currents, which are produced by gravitational or explosive lava dome failures. These currents have posed a persistent threat to life, property, and infrastructure within the densely populated areas on the volcano's flanks, as demonstrated by recent catastrophic eruptions that attracted worldwide media interest.
The book covers a wide range of topics related to Merapi volcano, including its geological history, eruptive patterns, and the impact of volcanic activity on the surrounding environment and communities. It also discusses the challenges faced in monitoring and predicting volcanic eruptions, as well as the strategies used to mitigate the risks associated with volcanic hazards.
The authors of this book are experts in their respective fields, and their contributions provide valuable insights into the complex nature of Merapi volcano and its implications for global volcanic hazard management. This book is a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, and communities living in the vicinity of active volcanoes, as well as anyone interested in the study of volcanoes and their hazards.
