According to NusaBali, villagers for the lakeside community of Lintang Danu recount that the lake suddenly changed color on Sunday (June 19) morning in the areas surrounding the villages of Songan. Batur, Kedisan and Buahan. Shortly after the color change, thousands of freshwater fish floated to the surface and begin washing up on the lake’s shore. Fish farmed by villages in the shallows of the lake also died with the changing color of the lake.
(villagers' opinions)...die-off might be due to a an underwater explosion, a fluctuation in water temperature, a current of acidic water or an unusual particle introduced naturally to the water...
The chief of the Disaster Alleviation Office for Bali, Putu Anom Agustina: “this is a natural phenomenon, not due to the volcanic activity of Mount Batur. It is perhaps due to strong winds that blew sulfuric soil into Lake Batur.”
