i'm not thinking it'll blow any time soon, but only one mag5+ quake we need I reckon, to start the action, so it could start any time, i suppose.

that is the one precursor we know happens. moderate quakes, felt widely. it's been very quiet there lately, apart from Jon's charts, and the tremor readings.

Below information is very entertaining. Absolutely not sure, that it will confirmed, but ... At the present time, with daily geological surprises... I would not be surprised if it will true

Google translation of yesterday article from the Georgian information portal
[link to www.apsny.ge]

Volcanic eruption damaged fiber optic cable Russia - Georgia
04.01.2013 23:08

From the Black Sea at 61 kilometers from the Georgian port of Poti on Friday raised portion of fiber-optic backbone cable Poti-Novorossiysk and Sochi (included in submarine cable system "Georgia-Russia"), which was damaged on 23 December in a volcanic eruption, said to " Interfax" executive director Foptnet Kote Samushia.

"The rise of the damaged cable at a depth of 1300 meters the crew carried a special ship that was called from the Italian port of Catania and began to work on January 3," - said K.Samushiya.

According to him, on a raised cable is clearly marked with signs of fire, which destroyed the polyethylene and damage the protective shield. "Experts believe that it is caused by an underwater volcanic eruption, recorded on December 23 in 18 hours 51 minutes, after about half an hour after the incident on the day of the earthquake in the Black Sea," - said K.Samushiya...

Submarine Eruption in the Black Sea off Georgia Not Likely
By Erik Klemetti01.11.1310:52 AM

Interesting conclusions. Firstly:
"Now, I don’t know what really happened off of the Georgian coast — maybe the earthquakes in late December triggered some submarine landslides that severed the cables. Why there were visible signs of fire are beyond me — especially with the supposed explanation of a submarine lava flow, you wouldn’t expect much fire and especially wouldn’t expect it to neatly sever the cable. However, I think we can safely say that the chances of this being a submarine eruption in the Black Sea are infinitesimally low. Just another cautionary tale of not believing what you read in the news with checking for yourself, especially if it seems incredible/unexpected"

But right here the following line:
"UPDATE 11:45 AM 1/11/13: Adam Forte, who works in this region, left a 5 Commentst suggesting it could be a mud volcano that ignited hydrocarbons/methane. No evidence, but a great idea for what might be actually happening"

There is a feeling that one somewhat contradicts anotherohyeah

Then in followed comments:
"Ed K
Interesting idea, but when I got to thinking about where the oxygen would come from I remember that the lower levels of the Black Sea are anoxic and also full of hydrogen sulfide. Then I remembered way back to ASW school and something about submarines having problems with corrosion if they operated below a certain depth in that body of water. So this whole lava-melted-the-cable story may be some fanciful explanation an exec came up with for a corroded cable."

Sure this idea is certainly non-operating :
specialists in paving and maintenance of submarine cables is quite able to distinguish corrosion of the cable from melting by the high temperatures LoL
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31983885


In the comments to this article in the blog at wired.com
also writes one piggy (whether from South Africa, or horror movies?) that he also knows there are many mud volcanoes. Interestingly, if he can not clearly explain how a jet of boiling mud volcano may be melted in water temperature resistant armored cable, and in several places. Very much doubt it.

Also there very interesting link on investigation with map of Black sea mud volcanos location:

23: Large explosive eruption at Manam volcano sends ash plume to 45,000 ft altitude – Alaskan volcano shaken

Posted on January 13, 2013by The Extinction Protocol


January 13, 2013 – PAPUA NEW GUINEA - A large eruption seems to have occurred this morning around 05:30 GMT from Manam volcano north of New Guinea. VAAC Darwin reported an ash plume rising to 45,000 ft (approx. 14 km) altitude. A hot spot is visible on MODIS satellite data. For the moment, no precise other information about the nature of the eruption is available, as the island is remote and most of its population had been relocated after the last major activity in 2004. –Volcano Discovery

Quake strikes beneath Alaskan volcano: A magnitude 4.6 earthquake struck deep beneath the Alaska Peninsula southwest of Cook Inlet early Sunday morning, triggering a tsunami warning that was quickly canceled, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The 3:45 a.m. shaker hit some 80 miles underground just across the inlet from communities along the western Kenai Peninsula. Data from the University of Alaska earthquake center pegged it 55 miles west of Nikiski but only a few miles from Mount Redoubt, an active volcano in Cook Inlet that last erupted in 2009. Despite its depth and distance it was strong enough to rattle dishware and trigger car alarms in South Anchorage, about 115 miles northeast of the epicenter, according to data from the earthquake center. There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries. –Alaska Dispatch [link to theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com]

January 15, 2013 – ITALY – Spectacular lava flows and smoke from an active volcano on the Italian island of Stromboli on Monday sparked fear among inhabitants but geophysicists said the situation was under control. Stromboli is part of the seven-island Eolian Archipelago just off Sicily in southern Italy. The volcano is active but on Monday there was a particularly powerful eruption and sustained lava flows, following four days of heightened activity. Stromboli mayor Marco Giorgianni told the island’s 500 inhabitants that they were not at risk and experts from Italy’s civil protection agency are due on the island for further controls shortly. “We are afraid,” one resident, Pier Paolo Cincotta, was quoted by the ANSA news agency as saying. “No-one has really explained to us what the situation is and what we should do,” he said. Italy’s National Geophysics Institute is monitoring the situation. –France 24

New Zealand volcano restless: Mt Tongariro has continued to emit steam and gas but beneath the mountain, things have been quiet so far this year. The Te Maari craters, the site of eruptions in August and November last year, continue to be active with continuous emissions of steam and volcanic gas, GNS Science said. The gas was coming from a large fumarole and crack in a cliff just east of the Upper Te Maari crater. The main Upper Te Maari crater is also discharging gas but at a lesser rate. “Gas and steam emissions from the volcano will continue to be a feature of the mountain for several years to come,” GNS head vulcanologist Gill Jolly said. GNS Science vulcanologists are planning to take new gas measurements to compare with those made at the end of December. Aerial observations at the end of last year showed a large amount of material had filled in the Upper Te Maari crater in the November 21 eruption but the main shape of the crater had not changed. Meanwhile seismic activity had remained relatively low, with no earthquakes yet recorded beneath the mountain this year. GNS said Tongariro continued to be in a heightened state of unrest and eruptions could occur with little or no warning. –Stuff [link to theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com]

The official report by INGV on the Stromboli activity of from 10 to 15 January with a lot impressive shots
[link to www.ct.ingv.it]
Google translation for last two days:
At around 04:20 on 14 January, began to form a second lava flow next to the already active, to the north, reaching a length of about 100 m (Fig. 6 top left), and after an hour this flow was no longer in power and cooling. However, the first flow continued its descent with no significant change, and at around 06:20 a new spill began on the trail of Colatina 04:20 hours. This time the flow was more abundant, forming a casting fan-shaped (Fig. 6 top right below), which is rapidly dropped next to the one already active from the previous evening. During the day, the interaction between the hot material of the casting and the sea water has created dense clouds of steam, mixed with ashes raised by numerous small landslides, these phenomena were particularly pronounced in the early afternoon. At dusk, three were active lava flows in the upper part of the Sciara del Fuoco (Fig. 6 bottom left), and these were reduced to a single lava flow in the late evening (Fig. 6 bottom right).
At dawn on January 15 was active only minor overflow (Fig. 7 left), but in the early afternoon, the effusion rate increased again, feeding a lava visible at sunset (Fig. 7 right).

The last tsunami that occured on December 31st 2002 at Stromboli was caused by an UNDERSEA collapse of the Sciara del Fuoco. The current superficial rockfalls and minor collapses cannot cause a tsunami. However, the constant accumulation of material on the slope may contribute to destabilizing this flank of the volcano and cause it to collapse undersea.

Mexico volcano becomes more explosive: Colima volcano has entered a new eruptive phase with more explosions during the past days. On January 6, the first explosion produced an ash column of 3 km height. The second explosion occurred 4 days later on Thursday 10 January. The second blast destroyed the lava dome that had been emplaced in 2007 in the summit crater. On Sunday January 13 the third explosion occurred, but the event was smaller than the previous two. The eruptions expelled approximately 1.5 million cubic meters of volcanic material that was part of the old dome and left a new crater of 220 m diameter inside the 420 m wide summit crater. –Volcano Discovery [link to theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com]

Long-Term Global Warming Trend Continues
January 16, 2013

...The map ... depicts temperature anomalies, or changes, by region in 2012; it does not show absolute temperature. Reds and blues show how much warmer or cooler each area was in 2012 compared to an averaged base period from 1951–1980:
[link to eoimages.gsfc.nasa.gov]
The line plot above shows yearly temperature anomalies from 1880 to 2011 as recorded by NASA GISS, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Climatic Data Center, the Japanese Meteorological Agency, and the Met Office Hadley Centre in the United Kingdom. All four institutions tally temperature data from stations around the world and make independent judgments about whether the year was warm or cool compared to other years. Though there are minor variations from year to year, all four records show peaks and valleys in sync with each other. All show rapid warming in the past few decades, and all show the last decade as the warmest.
Scientists emphasize that weather patterns cause fluctuations in average temperatures from year to year, but the continued increase in greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere assures that there will be a long-term rise in global temperatures. Each individual year will not necessarily be warmer than the previous year, but scientists expect each decade to be warmer than the previous decade...
“The U.S. temperatures in the summer of 2012 are an example of a new trend of outlying seasonal extremes that are warmer than the hottest seasonal temperatures of the mid-20th century,” NASA GISS director James E. Hansen said. “The climate dice are now loaded. Some seasons still will be cooler than the long-term average, but the perceptive person should notice that the frequency of unusually warm extremes is increasing. It is the extremes that have the most impact on people and other life on the planet.”

The tremor and seismicity dropped significantly early this morning on Mount Etna. This may mean that strombolian activity within Bocca Nuova has stopped. Boris will certainly have more news!

Boris Behncke >Claude G • a day ago
indeed the activity has likely come to a stop, though weather conditions have dramatically deteriorated and there is no visibility. The last glow was recorded by our surveillance cameras around 05 h local time this morning, about one hour before the volcano disappeared in the clouds of raging thunderstorms


But look now, tremor and seismic values three times higher than those who were at the peak of the eruption two days ago!

Activity Summary: Kilauea continued to erupt at two locations: At the summit, rockfalls disrupted the lava lake through yesterday afternoon and evening while weak DI inflation started at midnight. At Pu`u `O`o crater, lava flows covered the north portion of the crater floor. To the southeast of Pu`u `O`o, a lava flow was entering the ocean in multiple areas both inside and outside the National Park boundary while additional lava flows were active to the west on the coastal plain. Gas emissions remained elevated...

Etna, yesteday remarks

Claude G • a day ago
The tremor and seismicity dropped significantly early this morning on Mount Etna. This may mean that strombolian activity within Bocca Nuova has stopped. Boris will certainly have more news!

Boris Behncke >Claude G • a day ago
indeed the activity has likely come to a stop, though weather conditions have dramatically deteriorated and there is no visibility. The last glow was recorded by our surveillance cameras around 05 h local time this morning, about one hour before the volcano disappeared in the clouds of raging thunderstorms


But look now, tremor and seismic values three times higher than those who were at the peak of the eruption two days ago!

While Stromboli seems to be calming down, the tremor is rising sharply on Mount Etna tonight. The odds are that strombolian activity will start again within Bocca Nuova…or somewhere else on the volcano. One of the Radio Studio 7 webcams is showing incandescence in the fog. Wait and see

17:00: The view of the seismograph recorded late in the afternoon shows the violence of some explosions on Stromboli. Lava is still flowing down the Sciara del Fuoco where numerous collapses produce permanent dust clouds.

and about Stromboli
[link to volcans.blogs-de-voyage.fr]
Judging from the images of Stromboli‘s thermal camera, the lava overflow on the Sciara del Fuoco seems to be over. One can reasonably think that the highest point of the crisis is a thing of the past. Seismographs still show a few strong explosions but there is nothing to worry about. They are part of the strombolian dynamism.

More aggressive eruptive activity seen at many of world’s active volcanoes

Posted on January 17, 2013by The Extinction Protocol


January 17, 2012 – EARTH – Stromboli (Italy): The lava overflow that started on Monday and reached about 400 m elevation on the Sciara del Fuoco has stopped (for now). Strong explosions felt in houses in the village continue to occur frequently and tremor remains elevated. Etna volcano: The strombolian activity inside Bocca Nuova crater has ended abruptly yesterday. Colima (Mexico) has entered a new eruptive phase with more explosions during the past days. Popocatépetl (Mexico): Activity has not changed significantly: there are 1-2 weak emissions per hour, sometimes producing small quantities of ash. Glow from the summit remains visible at night. Some small volcanic earthquakes (below M2) have been occurring in the past days as well. Santiaguito (Guatemala): The activity has remained essentially unchanged but lower than last week. During 14-15 Jan, few weak explosions occurred from the dome, and glowing avalanches were observed from the fronts of the active lava flows on its flanks. Pacaya (Guatemala): Increased steaming has been observed today, but otherwise, there has not been any new activity. Numerous small earthquakes continue to be visible as evidence of fluid movements under the volcano. Fuego (Guatemala): Activity has been decreasing with few explosions and the lava flow reducing its length to 300 m. Nicaragua’s San Cristobal, Masaya and Concepcion volcanoes have not shown appreciable changes in their (seismic) activity of varying amounts of volcanic earthquakes and tremor. Nevado del Ruiz (Colombia): No other activity than degassing has been reported recently. Seismic activity remains elevated but at relatively low levels. A swarm of earthquakes occurred under the volcano on 15 Jan afternoon. Very small, but numerous, earthquakes are occurring at Machin, Galeras, and Cumbal volcanoes in Colombia. Reventador (Ecuador): Strong seismic activity including some explosion signals and a hot spot visible on satellite images suggest that the lava dome in the summit crater continues to be active. Tungurahua is currently calm. Copahue (Chile/Argentina border): No surface activity and no glow has been observed, but there is elevated seismic activity of low energy with more than 1700 events detected between 15-16 Jan. Alert level remains at Orange because of the risk of sudden phreatic explosions. Lokon-Empung (North Sulawesi, Indonesia): Another explosion occurred this morning at 09:33 local time. It was weaker than the previous ones and produced a plume rising to about 12,000 ft (3.6 km) altitude and drifting NE, VAAC Darwin reported. Kilauea (Hawai’i): Activity has been stable with good magma supply maintaining relatively high levels of the lava lakes and feeding lava flows that continue to reach the ocean. Sakurajima volcano in Japan has maintained a rythm of 2-3 daily explosions with ash plumes rising to 6-10,000 ft (1.8-3 km) altitude. White Island (New Zealand): The tremor has increased significantly during the past 24 hours. If this is caused by the volcano (and not wind), it could suggest a new eruption under way, but there have been no reports of any activity so far. Kizimen (Kamchatka): The new lava flow from the summit dome continues to be active on the north-eastern flank of the volcano. Incandescence of the volcano summit, hot avalanches and strong degassing accompany this process, KVERT reports. Tolbachik (Kamchatka): The eruption still continues with active lava flows being fed by the southern vent. KVERT reports tremor at higher levels than during the past week. –Volcano Discovery [link to theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com]

Hawaiian lava lake hits new record high

Posted on January 17, 2013by The Extinction Protocol


January 17, 2012 – HAWAII – The orange glow atop Hawaii’s Mount Kilauea was a little stronger yesterday (Jan. 15) than it has been in recent weeks. The volcano’s lava lake lapped over the inner ledge of its vent, reaching a new high and bring molten rock closer than ever to the floor of Halema’uma’u crater. The level was about 80 feet (25 meters) below the crater floor, the highest level reached since the summit vent blasted open in March 2008, the U.S. Geological Survey reports. The lava lake last surged on Oct. 23, 2012, when the high mark was measured at 100 feet (31 m) below the crater floor. Since fresh lava appeared atop Kilauea in 2008, the lake level has varied from near the crater to out of sight, more than 650 feet (200 m) beneath the crater floor. The lake sits in a vent, which is actually a pipe-like crater within the smaller crater called Halema’uma’u. And Halema’uma’u is also a crater within a crater — the giant Kilauea caldera, the bowl left behind when the volcano blew its top about 1500 A.D. The USGS also reports that activity is up at Pu’u ‘O’o crater, 12 miles (19 kilometers) from the summit in the volcano’s East Rift Zone. The crater was awash with lava flows in recent days, and lava overflowed from its northeast lava lake and north spatter cone, the USGS said in a statement. At the coast, oozing flows continues to slowly drop into the ocean. This month marks the 30th anniversary of the eruption at Kilauea’s East Rift Zone. The volcano’s longest continuous rift zone eruption since the 15th century, the massive upwelling has created more than 500 acres of new land. -OAP [link to theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com]
