Abstract Observations of active flows, their deposits, and the effects of lahars generated during the 1995 eruptions of Ruapehu are compared to those of the last 2000 years. The 1995 lahars were generated by similar mechanisms, and had similar volumes and flow rheologies, to those of the last 135 years. However, the large number of lahars in the 1995 sequence and the eventual emptying of the entire Crater Lake on Mt Ruapehu by lahars is distinctive in the context of the historic record. The 1953 and 1975 lahars, although of smaller total volume than the largest 1995 lahar, had higher peak discharges and consequently greater effects on life and property within 57 km from the source. This implies that failure of a lake dam is the most efficient mechanism for generating a fast lahar with high peak discharge, and that eruptions through Crater Lake are more efficient at generating a lahar with high peak discharge when the lake is full. The scant 1995 lahar deposits preserved indicate that the geological record...
