Description Original caption: Unzen volcano, Japan. House destroyed and partially buried by lahars in the Mizunashi River valley. Large rounded boulders are blocks of the new lave dome originally deposited by pyroclastic flows in the headwaters of the Mizunashi River and later remobilized by lahars. In this area, the threat of lahars during rainstorms caused thousands of people to evacuate their homes on many occasions.
