Description

Over the period of 07 June 2023, active degassing of the Taal Main Crater has been observed in the form of visible upwelling of volcanic fluids in the Main Crater Lake and generation of voluminous steam-rich plumes that rose 2,000 meters above Taal Volcano Island. In consequence, significant volcanic smog or vog has formed over Taal Caldera and its surrounding areas. An average of 7,680 tonnes/day of volcanic sulfur dioxide or SO2 gas was remitted by Taal on 6 June 2023, preceded by emissions averaging at 9,391 tonnes/day on 5 June 2023. Vog can be expected to persist over the Taal region while degassing activity, weak wind movement and humid atmospheric conditions prevail.

Relevant Disasters

The ASEAN Disaster Information Network (ADINet) is a repository of information concerning hazards and disasters that have happened in the region. The platform is open for public, which means that the public can submit information about any hazard and disaster to the AHA Centre. Thereafter, the AHA Centre will verify and validate any submitted information to ensure the accuracy of the data inputs. The AHA Centre can also add new information when relevant and as necessary. ADINet has been recording disaster information in the region since the AHA Centre was operational in 2012.
