Thanks to A. Fisher and R. Schulz, the following photos and short videoclips showing the strong activity of Stromboli's NE-crater during early December 2003 have become available on decadevolcano.net. A short report about the circumstances under which these photos/videos were taken is also available on the Stromboli updates pages (December 2003). |

into erupting NE crater. Note mild continuous spattering before and after
the main explosion, indicating a very high level of magma. - The situation
is just like during mid-late 2002, when this led to a flank eruption. Could
this repeat itself in the near future? [Format: Real Player, 250KB, high compression] |
Strong eruption with a large liquid jet of lava at the beginning. Note the
arrival of the sound wave is slightly delayed due to the distance. [Format: Real Player, 169KB high compression. For a smoother version: mpeg1-Format, 2281KB] |
