Indonesian volcano Merapi is one of the most hazardous volcanoes on the planet and is characterised by periods of active dome growth and intermittent explosive events. Merapi currently degasses continuously through high temperature fumaroles and erup... Read More about Magmatic differentiation processes at Merapi Volcano: inclusion petrology and oxygen isotopes.
