Luoshan Mud Volcano (羅山泥火山) - Spectral Codex
羅山泥火山

A small, low-profile mud volcano on the western foothills of the Coastal Mountain Range near Luoshan Village. Rainwater seeps through fissures along the Yongfeng Fault (永豐斷層) into underlying mudstone, then resurfaces under pressure carrying dissolved sediment, forming several small vents.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
