Increased seismicity, eruption alert level raised for Tsurumidake and Garandake, Japan
The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) raised the alert level for Tsurumidake and Garandake, Kyushu, Japan on July 8, 2022, from 1 to 2
(restriction on proximity to the crater). The last eruption at this volcano took place in the year 867 (VEI 3).
The number of earthquakes at the volcano rose sharply on July 8, with up to 90 shallow earthquakes at depths between 1 and 4 km (0.6 – 2.5
miles) east of the Garandake dome.
As a result, JMA raised the alert level to 2, urging residents not to approach within 1 km (0.6 miles) from Tsurumidake and Garandake.1
The agency warned of possible eruptions at the Garandake crater with potential pyroclastic flows within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the crater.
Local authorities have stopped the Beppu Ropeway, evacuated Tsukahara Onsen, and closed Prefectural Road 616 near the volcanoes.2
