Evolution of Volcano's active block and dynamics of Bezymyannyi eruptive activity in the autumn 1984 eruption.
On sketch:
1-3 - the contours of active block accordingly on October 7, 9 and 10;
4 - the directions of deformations;
5 - the pathes of avalanches.
The arrows on diagram are showing states:
1 - the rest,
2 - the steady stationary development,
3 - the avalanche-like (the more the faster) increase of activity,
4 - the avalanche-like (the less the slower) decrease of activity.
