Abstract
Typical samples of video records in 1993 are shown concerning the flow patterns of eruption clouds and stationary plumes ejected from Mt. Sakurajima. Mountain lee waves are formed under strong winds, resulting the high concentration of sulfur-dioxide at the foot of the mountain downstream. Also shown are water clouds formed by the upward displacement of streaming moist layers due to the topographical effects of the isolated mountain.
