Volcanic eruptions in 1995

REGION 1: EUROPE TO CAUCASUS - ITALY

  • Stromboli: continuous small-scale Strombolian activity all year round, with a stronger-than-usual explosion on 5 March. The activity continues with almost no interruptions since at least 2500 years and maybe up to 5000 years.
  • Etna: small phreatic ash emissions from Bocca Nuova and Northeast Crater from January to July, magmatic (Strombolian) activity in both craters starting in late July-early August, increasing in early October. Unusually strong (Vulcanian?) eruptions from Northeast Crater starting on 8 November, with at least six episodes until the end of the year, the latest occurring on 23 December. Etna's most recent significant activity was a voluminous, long-lasting eruption in 1991-1993.
