Ash plume from Dukono this morning (Aqua satellite / MODIS / NASA) Ash emissions have been intense recently, suggesting that activity at the (more or less permanently active) volcano is currently elevated. Based on satellite imagery, Darwin VAAC reported…
Eruption at Sinabung this morning (image: PVMBG) A series of 3 explosions occurred this morning at 06:09, 06:19 and 06:58 local time, generating ash plumes that rose 1200, 1500 and 2000 m above the volcano’s summit, respectively. Courtesy of volcanodiscovery.com…
Steam/ash Plume From Klyuchevskoy Volcano Tokyo VAAC reported an ash plume from the volcano at 20:40 UTC, based on satellite data. While it is entirely possible that activity at the lava dome of Bezymianny has picked up or that…
Ash emissions from Bristol island on 19 July 2016 (image: Terra/MODIS/NASA via South Sandwich Islands Volcano Monitoring Blog) The eruption on the remote island continues. Recent satellite images show increased ash emissions as well as two dark stripes that likely…
SO2 plume from Bagana volcano (NOAA) The volcano’s activity seems to have increased a bit during the past days although it is currently unknown what is exactly going on (growing lava dome? effusion of lava flows?). Overall heat emission…
