KVERT
indicates that the alert level of Bezymianny has just been raised to RED. A long
episode of volcanic tremor was registered on March 2nd, probably due
to an extrusion of lava blocks at the top of the dome, with the possibility of a
strong explosive eruption of the volcano. According to satellite data, the size
and brightness of a thermal anomaly abruptly increased on March 2nd
with a temperature of 53.4°C. Ushkovsky, Klyuchevskoi, Kamen and Tolbachik.

Parece ser que las últimas batimetrías del Margalef han dado una distancia a la superficie de 88 metros, por lo que el volcán ha seguido creciendo, desde el último comunicado del IEO, a un buen ritmo a pesar del bajo nivel del tremor.

Tungurahua Volcano: explosions, ash fall and pyroclastic flow possible

Since last night, March 03, four explosions have been reported moderate to large size. The explosion of 07:31 (local time) today, led a column of ash-laden emissions of about 4 km in height and direction of movement to the west - north west. THE explosion of 09:11 (local time) today, was a shot that in some areas caused ground shaking and windows. Because maintaining a permanent cloudiness in the sector of the volcano has been made direct observations, or with the help of thermal sensors to determine the presence of high temperature deposits on the flanks and expulsion of hot material from the area of crater....

Recent volcanic activity

In 1999, after a long period of quiescence, the volcano entered an eruptive phase that continues to this day (as of December 2011). The renewed activity in October 1999 produced major ashfall and led to the temporary evacuation of more than 25,000 inhabitants from Baños and the surrounding area[7] Activity continued at a medium level until May 2006, when activity increased dramatically, culminating in violent eruptions on 14 July 2006 and 16 August 2006. The 16 August 2006 eruption has been the most violent since activity commenced in 1999. This eruption was accompanied by a 10 km high ash plume which spread over an area of 740 by 180 km[8], depositing ash and tephra to the southwest of the volcano. Several pyroclastic flows were generated that killed at least five people, and destroyed a number of hamlets and roads on the eastern and northwestern slopes of the volcano.[9]

A further eruption and evacuation occurred on 4 December 2010. Ecuador's National Agency of Risk Control issued a "red alert", later downgraded to orange.[10] The Ecuadorean Institute for Geophysics reported a rapid increase in seismic activity, a number of explosions and an ash cloud reaching 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) in height.

Etna just keeps on rolling. The Italian volcano had its third paroxysm of 2012 (see above) on March 4 and first since early February. This new eruption was a short event that was preceded by 18 days worth of small strombolian activity. The event may have been only ~2 hours, but it produced some spectacular explosions, aiding in some part by interaction with snow and a pyroclastic flow was spotted as well. Osservatario Etneo reported that even a small lahar was produced during this paroxysm as a result of volcanic material mixing with snow. Air traffic around Sicily was not effected by this paroxysm. As usual, Eruptions readers were all over the event, capturing web cam captures and images (below) and Boris Behncke snapped a few shots of the action as usual. [link to www.wired.com]

The Scientific Committee of the Plan of Civil protection by volcanic risk in the Canary Islands (Pevolca) has given this Monday ended a volcanic eruption, which began almost five months ago, on October 10 last year, when in the calm sea, in the South of the island of El Hierro, became visible the emission of pyroclastic.

The sismovolcánica crisis began July 19 in El Hierro and since then the National Geographic Institute (IGN) has registered 12.503 seismic movements until this Monday, on land or in water close to El Hierro.

The chronology of the most relevant facts of the eruptive process of El Hierro is as follows:

2011:

19 jul-begin to register the first tremors in the municipality de Frontera (El Hierro), according to the National Geographic Institute (IGN).

27 sep-half a hundred border neighbors are evicted and the Roquillos tunnel is closed to traffic.

8 October-an earthquake of 4.3 degrees, causes landslides.

10 oct-occurs underwater volcanic eruption, about five kilometres from La Restinga and 1,000 metres of depth, in the mar de Las Calmas.

11 oct-early warning of volcanic risk becomes red level and ordered the evacuation of La Restinga.

12 oct-located at sea two spots of sulphur, 1.5 or 2 miles from the coast, which demonstrate a rash with two foci, to about 500 and 750 meters of depth.

14 oct-comes the scientific vessel “Professor Ignacio Lozano”.

15 oct-the stain of magma and gases is approaching the coast. Close access to La Restinga and prohibits the flight of helicopters and airplanes.

21 oct-a Scientific Committee is.

23 oct-arrives at the island the Oceanographic ship “Ramon Margalef”.

25 oct-Spanish Institute of Oceanography located two underwater lights and a new volcano in 100 meters high, with a diameter at the base of 700 metres and a crater of 120 meters.

2 nov-recorded earthquakes of up to 4.4 degrees.

4 nov-closes the tunnel of the Roquillos and 11 homes of the tips are evicted.

5 nov-evacuated for the second time the population of La Restinga. Perceived columns of steam and ash several meters above the surface of the sea.

6 nov-the emission of CO2, reaches maximum levels.

8 nov-the submarine volcano returns to lead to another outbreak of steam and ash on the surface of the water.

9 nov-banned access to the coves of the South of the island close to the focus of the eruption.

11 nov-recorded a seismic movement of 4.6 degrees on the Richter, of far greater intensity scale.

14 nov-authorizing the return of residents to La Restinga.

25 nov-cancelled measures for civil protection on the island before the stability of the volcanic phenomenon.

7 Dec-confined to the maritime area on the volcano the red light by eruption. The rest of the iron passes to hold the color “yellow” indicator of volcanic risk.

10 Dec-for the first time since July 17, are not registered earthquakes.

28 Dec-iron volcano returns to issue material and is seen bubbling.

2012:

19 Jan-scientists set out the top of the submarine volcano to 130 meters of depth.

5 mar-the Scientific Committee of the Plan of Civil protection by volcanic risk in the Canary Islands (Pevolca) thus finished the volcanic eruption

That's right, they are known as tremors, there's sometimes a graph that measures those like in Iceland but not sure if there is one that we can see for Tungarahua.

I guess in Banos they have evacuation signs everwhere, so my daughter says not to worry. Tungarahua is not a gusher, but an exploder style volcano. Wonder how much in advance they know it's going to blow?

Volcano Activity in Russia [Asia] on Tuesday, 06 March, 2012 at 04:02 (04:02 AM) UTC.

Description
n Kamchatka, in the Russian Far East, the Unnamed Volcano has been assigned the highest aviation danger code of "red." The ash and gases that are being spewed from the crater can seriously damage aircraft systems. The volcano is also showing high seismic activity and signs that it may possibly erupt. On average the Unnamed Volcano emits ash and gases 1-2 times a year. Previously the most powerful emissions were in 1956.

Spain / Canary Islands / El Hierro submarine volcano
Yesterday evening, the scientific committee who is monitoring the submarine eruption declared the current eruption as “ended“. Spanish authorities will continue bathymetry sessions until the month of May to map the ocean floor and the volcano cone. The scientist monitoring will continue until pre-activity conditions are obtained (seismic and deformation conditions as present before July 17, 2011). $$$$$

USA / Hawaii / Kilauea / Royal Gardens
Jack Thompson, the last remaining habitant of the lava threatened Royal Gardens subdivision was evacuated last Friday night as a fresh lava flow burned through surrounding forest toward his home. Thompson took a few vital possessions into the two helicopters, but his home and all of its furniture will be eaten by the Pāhoehoe lava flow

After the medium sized earthquake swarm that took place at the MAR 20 km to the SSW of Reykjavik there have been reports of HS2 gas smell in the vicinity. The first one to report that was our own commenter Irpsit, who went trekking in the area of Lake Thingvellir. He reported strong smell on both sides of the lake, and that it numbed his nose within minutes. This tells us that the concentration was higher than is technically good for you. The danger with HS2 is that numbs the nose and then you can get into an area with poisonous levels of gas.

It is interesting that the gas emission rate in that area has increased after the 4.2M earthquake swarm. It probably means that in some way one of the volcanic systems in the area was affected since the area is rather large and requires more than a little gas puffing up to affect the nose in such away on both sides of the lake.

In reality there could only have been two volcanoes responsible for this emission, one of them is of course Hengill. Hengill is the largest of the volcanoes in that part of Iceland. But, I would like to make the culprit into Brennisteinsfjöll.


It erupted at 1000AD, 1200AD and at 1341AD. What makes into a likely culprit is that it is known to stink. The actual meaning of the name of the volcano says it all. Etymology is sometimes a useful science for volcanological purposes. Brennisteinsfjöll quite simply means Burnstone Mountain, or even more precisely, the Mountain of Brimstone.

Brennisteinsfjöll normally erupts in an effusive fissure style yielding between 0.2 to 3 cubic kilometers of lava. Two of the eruptions have VEI-2 numbers, the latest during 950AD. So if it erupts it should not be an ashy affair. At least at long as the lake does not get involved.
