Abstract(s)

This paper discusses the results of seismological, geodetic, geophysical, geologic and petrologic investigations of the large Tolbachik fissure eruption which occurred from July 6, 1975 to Dec. 10, 1976 in Kamchatka. The eruption proceeded first in the region of North vents (July 6-Sept. 15, 1975) where the character of its activity was predominantly explosive and then after a short repose period started again in the region of South vent where its activity was predominantly effusive with outpouring of fluid lava. The total volume of erupted products is 2.3 km³. The time and locality of eruption were successfully predicted according to the character of a swarm of earthquakes recorded at depths from 0 to 20 (30) km. […].
