Abstract
After being dormant for a long time, Mt. Pinatubo volcano located on L uzon island in the Philippines erupted violently on June 15, 1991 (Eva ngelista 1993). During successive rainy seasons, 1991 to 1993, large m udflows spread on the surrounding areas. The detailed chemical, physic al, and mineralogical characteristics of these mudflow materials will be described in another report. In this paper, preliminary application of satellite imagery for the estimation of Mt. Pinatubo mudflow distr ibution is reported.
