Outline of Final Research Achievements

We obtained the seismic and acoustic energies and durations of 2014 and 2015 eruptions of Kuchinoerabujima. We estimated the altitude of the eruption plume by a force at the seismic source and compare with the plume altitude by visual observation for the 2015 eruption. We compared seismic waveforms and tilt changes of eruptions in Japan and clarified common features of the eruptions of Kusatsushiranesan, Ontakesan and Kuchinoerabujima.
We detected the radar reflection intensity corresponding to eruption plumes of Sakurajima and Shinmoedake. We estimated the plume height of the Sakurajima eruption on November 13, 2017 as 4 km by using the radar reflection intensity, although the visual plume height was unknown due to bad weather. By comparing the radar reflection intensities of the 2017 and 2018 eruptions of Shinmoedake with the plume altitudes by visual observation, we accumulated the basic data for establishing a method for estimating altitudes of eruption plumes using weather radars.
