Welcome to the scientific web platform dedicated to the distribution of scientific information on the active volcanoes of the Virunga Volcanic Province, in Central Africa.
Virunga-volcanoes.org is managed by a Belgian-Luxembourgian (BeLux) scientific consortium having a long-standing and multidisciplinary expertise in the study of the Virunga volcanoes. On this website, you will find everything you need about the past and recent eruptive activity of the Virunga volcanoes, and more specifically on the highly active Nyiragongo and Nyamulagira.
Want to help us?
You went there or plan to go there ?
Your pictures from the Nyiragongo lava lake are also of scientific interest.
Night and day views, close up of the lava lake or the whole crater: what ever you have could help us if provided with an accurate date (and time if possible).
Please send us you JPG by e-mail (not zipped) at
virunga-volcanoes@ecgs.lu
That would be fantastic, thanks a lot !
