 A large eruption occurred on 9 June, at 04.28 p.m., local time, sending a plume of ash 7,000 meters (22,966 feet) into the air, and generating a pyroclastic flow 3‒3,5 kilometers long towards the south and southeast.An ecosystem responds to volcanism in many different ways depending on the frequency, scale, and severity of the eruptions.Furthermore, it can be assumed that the pyroclastic flow of the eruption, whose temperature was estimated at by Indonesian officials, killed much of the organic matter including plants and animals.
