Pinatubo, Luzon Island, Philippines
Greyish white lahars (mudflows) are seen radiating out of the volcano along the existing river valleys. Lahars flowing south from the crater, after partially filling in a lake, have turned west to build up a lobe of sediment at the mouth of the river on the South China Sea coast. Towards the east, lahars are a threat to the settlements and roads. Coastal swamps of Manila Bay are visible towards the southeast as a patch of dark and light blue colour. |
