Naka-dake - Vulkan Aso - Kyushu - Japan
Diese Aufnahmen entstanden am 15.05.2017 am Naka-dake auf dem Aso-Vulkan, musikalisch untermalt mit einem Song aus dem Anime Re:Creations und einer Informationsdurchsage, die dort alle paar Minuten zu hören war. Was in dem Video nicht zur Geltung kommt ist das kräftige Schwefelaroma vor Ort.

桜島・ 鹿児島県 Sakurajima, Kagoshima Japan
Kagoshima 鹿児島県 Prefecture at the southwestern tip of the island of Kyushu in Japan, and the largest city in the prefecture by some margin. It has been nicknamed the Napoli of the Eastern world for its bay location, hot climate, and impressive stratovolcano, Sakurajima.
Sakurajima 桜島 is an active composite volcano and a former island of the same name in Kagoshima Prefecture in Kyūshū, Japan. The lava flows of the 1914 eruption caused the former island to be connected with the Osumi Peninsula.
The volcanic activity still continues, dropping large amounts of volcanic ash on the surroundings. Earlier eruptions built the white sands highlands in the region.
Sakurajima is a composite mountain. Its summit is split into three peaks, Kita-dake, Naka-dake and Minami-dake which is active now.
Today's Kita-dake is Sakura-jima's highest, rising to 1,117 m above sea level. The mountain is located in a part of Kagoshima Bay known as Kinkō-wan. The former island is part of the city of Kagoshima.

Sakurajima's activity became more prominent in 1955. Ever since, thousands of small explosions occur each year, throwing ash to heights of up to a few kilometres above the mountain. Sakurajima is part of the Kirishima National Park. The area around Sakurajima contains several hot spring resorts. One of the main agricultural products of Sakurajima is a huge basketball-sized white radish (sakura-daikon).
The 1914 eruption was the most powerful in twentieth-century Japan. Lava flows filled the narrow strait between the island and the mainland, turning it into a peninsula. The island grew, engulfing several smaller islands nearby. Parts of Kagoshima bay became significantly shallower, and tides were affected, becoming higher as a result. During the final stages of the eruption, the centre of the Aira caldera sank by about 60 cm, due to subsidence caused by the emptying out of the underlying magma chamber.
Almost all residents had left the island in the previous days, in response to several large earthquakes that warned them that an eruption was imminent. Initially, the eruption was very explosive, generating pyroclastic flows, which killed 35 people.
Sakurajima is a composite mountain. Its summit is split into three peaks, Kita-dake (northern peak), Naka-dake (central peak) and Minami-dake (southern peak) which is active now. Kita-dake is Sakurajima's highest peak, rising to 1,117 metres above sea level.
Sakurajima is located in the Aira caldera, formed in an enormous eruption 22,000 years ago. Sakurajima was formed by later activity within the caldera, beginning about 13,000 years ago. It lies about 8 kilometres south of the centre of the caldera. Its first eruption in recorded history occurred in 963. Most of its eruptions are strombolian, affecting only the summit areas, but larger plinian eruptions have occurred in 1471-1476, 1779-1782 and 1914.

Sakurajima is a volcano in Kagoshima Bay, southern part of Kyushu, Japan (about 1,100km WSW of Tokyo). The volcano has three peaks, i.e. Kitadake, Nakadake and Minamidake. While historically recorded eruptions took place at Minamidake, the flank and nearby sea floor, and all major eruptions have occurred at fissures on the flanks. The volcano, originally island volcano, was connected to the Osumi Peninsula of the main Kyushu Island by a lava flow in 1914. A series of summit eruptions has been occurring since 1955 at Minamidake crater.
