AVO has received no other reports of activity. The development of a lava dome in the summit crater indicates that sudden explosions of blocks and ash are possible with little or no warning. Ash clouds, if produced, could exceed 20,000 feet above sea level. If a large ash-producing event occurs, nearby seismic, infrasound, or volcanic lightning networks should alert AVO staff quickly. However, for some events, a delay of several hours is possible. There is no real-time seismic monitoring network on Mount Cleveland and AVO is unable to track activity in real time.

The Alaska Volcano Observatory detected elevated surface temperatures Jan. 24 at Cleveland's summit. Satellite data obtained last week indicated that a growing lava dome on the floor of the summit crater had reached about 328 feet, or 100 meters, in diameter... The observatory has no real-time seismic equipment on Cleveland. Pressure sensors on Okmok Volcano —74 miles away— have in the past detected a pressure wave from an explosion, Waythomas said.

The 1670-m-high andesitic volcano towers above the eastern shores of Lake Arenal, which has been enlarged by a hydroelectric project. Arenal lies along a volcanic chain that has migrated to the NW from the late-Pleistocene Los Perdidos lava domes through the Pleistocene-to-Holocene Chato volcano, which contains a 500-m-wide, lake-filled summit crater...) but it helicoder did't show this eq and in general any seismic disturbance [link to www.ovsicori.una.ac.cr] From other side, volcano Poas helicoder at a distance 55 km ( [link to www.volcano.si.edu] Volcano Type: Stratovolcano Volcano Status: Historical Last Known Eruption: 2011 in or after The broad, well-vegetated edifice of Poás, one of the most active volcanoes of Costa Rica, contains three craters along a N-S line.

Katla Hekla Iceland Dead Zone and rift as uniform system ! A lot of others worldwide ! [link to www.pbs.org] interesting documentary narrative about Icelandic volcanoes... NARRATOR: Katla has the power to change the world's climate. MIKE RAMPINO: A long-duration eruption, such as Katla, if it happened today, would cause quite a mess on a global scale. The numbers are about two degrees Celsius cooler. It doesn't sound like much, but it is enough to cause a transformation of the landscape. CLAIRE WITHAM: I think we're probably more susceptible to these types of events in the 21st century than we are in the early 20th century. JOHN GRATTAN: We think we're immune to these things, and, frankly, we're not. NARRATOR: Those least able to protect themselves would be most affected. JOHN GRATTAN: To be brutal about it, the vulnerable population will be culled from society. The elderly, the sick, people with heart and lung conditions, the obese. We are going to see many, many people dying. |
