ERLAWS, the Eastern Ruapehu Lahar Alarm and Warning System, is a lahar warning system installed on Mount Ruapehu, New Zealand, following volcanic eruptions in 1995–1996. The system successfully detected and warned about a lahar in March 2007. The system is being expanded to detect the wider range of lahar threats now expected on Ruapehu.
