| Three-dimensional image of conduit drilling. Shown inside the volcano are the drilling trajectory of conduit drilling (USDP-4) and plate-shaped conduit (dike) together with earthquake hypocenters, water table and explosion source. | Photograph showing four USDP drilling sites on the eastern side of Unzen volcano. In July 2002, road construction to the drilling site to the conduit (USDP-4) started in the northern slope of Mt. Fugen (peak of Unzen). |
