Abstract

Debris avalanche deposit is formed by the failure of volcanic edifice and has a high potential to directly impact human civilization. The famous characteristic landform of debris avalanche deposit is hummocky hills. To understand the dynamics of avalanche flow, we investigate the morphometric characters of debris avalanche hummocks from Gunung Gadung in Raung Volcanic Complex. The collapse of Gunung Gadung follows two main flow direction with two different kinds of debris avalanche, i.e., freely spreading and valley filling. Our study recorded that there is no significant correlation between hummock size and distance from the source. The distribution of Gadung hummock size is mainly controlled by pre-existing morphologic feature such as Iyang-Argapura Volcanic Complex and Meru Betiri Mountains. We identify four domains area of Gadung debris avalanche flow based on hummock size distribution, which are Toreva domain, Hummock domain, Collision domain, and Oblique collision domain. Hummock orientation and displacement angle of Gadung debris avalanche deposit depend on structural regime existed in certain area. Compressional regime may occur because of collision between Gadung avalanche flow and Iyang-Argapura Volcanic Complex, or shifting of main flow direction. Meanwhile, extensional regime may happen due to decreasing in slope and spreading of avalanche flow. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
