Update: Further increase of seismic activity at the volcano Tungurahua bellows
July 16, 2013
From about 04:10 (local time) today, July 16, 2013, there has been a slight increase in the energy of the seismic activity, registering a tremor signal emission from 06:50 (Local TIMP) saturated stations near the volcano. Since the last time the intensity and length of the bellows have increased. Due to the presence of high clouds in the volcano area there have been no observations of the surface manifestations.
This morning there have been reports from the sector Manzano soil vibration associated with the bellows. By analyzing data from monitoring stations lahars presumed muddy water falling through the ravines of Juive, Achupashal and Bilbao.

Description
Ecuadorian Tungurahua volcano today reported a slight increase in the energy of seismic activity, after the blast past Sunday, the Geophysical Institute of the National Polytechnic School (IG) reported. The IG said that from about 04:10 local time on Tuesday, there is a tremor signal emission, which from 06:50 local time saturates the stations near the volcano of 5016 meters. Since the last time the intensity and length of the howlings have increased, said the IG, and explained that due to the presence of high clouds in the volcano area there have been no observations of the surface manifestations. The National Secretariat for Risk Management (SNGR) on Sunday decreed alert, of caution at the volcano area, with a possible increase in the activity of the colossus after the explosion of great intensity that day and the ejection of a high column of ash and rocks. The Tungurahua, located about 45 miles south of Quito, its current eruptive process began in 1999 and has since periods of intense activity interspersed with periods of relative calm. The population of areas near the volcano were affected on Sunday by falling rubble of black and pink color, while other remote areas received falling of thick black ash. Authorities Risk Management Secretariat volcano kept under constant observation to implement the measures in case of an increase in its activity.

Residents flee as Indonesia’s Merapi Volcano spews ash

Posted on July 22, 2013 by The Extinction Protocol


July 22, 2013 – INDONESIA - One of Indonesia’s most dangerous volcanoes spewed material a kilometer into the air near Yogyakarta, a university town and center of Javanese culture, sending hundreds of villagers fleeing. A short, massive rumbling was heard from Mount Merapi in the predawn hours Monday, the country’s disaster agency said, after which a cloud of ash and fine sand fell for several hours as far as 14 kilometers from the peak on the island of Java. By afternoon all activity had ceased and most of the evacuees from the mountain’s slopes returned to their homes. “This was not an eruption, just the sliding-down of volcanic material from the top of the volcano,” said Agus Hendratno, a geologist and lecturer at Gadjah Mada University in Yogyakarta. He said this is a common process in which part of the volcano’s lava dome collapses, releasing ash and volcanic material. “I went outside my house at 5 a.m. and was surprised to see the terrace covered in a fine ash,” he added. “It kept falling until around 8 a.m.” Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, spokesman for the disaster agency, said Merapi’s alert level remains normal, and that scientists are monitoring the volcano to gauge whether the activity could presage a lava eruption. Merapi, nearly 3,000 meters high and about 25 kilometers north of Yogyakarta, is Indonesia’s most seismically active volcano. An eruption in 2010 released poisonous gases and blanketed the region in ash, killing more than 300 people and temporarily displacing hundreds of thousands. Indonesia, which sits along a series of major fault lines dubbed the “Ring of Fire,” is home to more than 100 active volcanoes. The United Nations lists Merapi as one of 16 world-wide that pose especially serious threats because of their activity and the size of nearby populations. Millions of people live in the region around Merapi. -WSJ [link to theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com]

Japan’s Sakurajima volcano shaken by large explosive eruption

Posted on July 22, 2013 by The Extinction Protocol

July 22, 2013 – JAPAN – A strong vulcanian explosion occurred last night at 11:02 GMT (20:02 local time), following several hours of near complete calm at the volcano. A loud cannon-shot bang accompanied the explosion, which generated a large mushroom cloud that reached 12,000 ft (3.7 km) altitude and engulfed the NE half of the Sakurajima peninsula and was followed by several smaller ones within about half an hour. The volcano and much of the surrounding areas remained under the ash plume for several hours until it started to clear up again. In the hours after the explosion, the Showa crater continued to emit ash plumes in often near-continuous pulses, sometimes reaching several 100 m height, but with no visible incandescence or audible sounds. –Volcano Discovery

Large explosions at Ecuador volcano: An increase of activity occurred yesterday. IGPEN recorded 3 strong pulses of volcanic tremor since midnight 20-21 July (local time), which were accompanied by strombolian activity and strong explosions that produced loud roars, heavy gunfire sounds, and vibrations that rattled floors, windows and doors of houses in areas nearby. Some were heard even in the Tungurahua Volcano Observatory (OVT), located 14 km north of the volcano. The largest explosion yesterday at 14h18 (local time) generated an eruption column of 5 km height moving east. Although so far there have been no new pyroclastic flows, this could likely happen in the near future. Ash fall occurred in the area of Manzano, Choglontus, Tisaleo, Cevallos and Mapayacu. In between the explosions, constant strombolian activity with the ejection of incandescent bombs, some of which rolled down the slopes could be seen at night. The explosions caused considerable damage to some of the monitoring instruments (solar panels, cameras etc.). –Volcano Discovery [link to theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com]

YOGYAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) - Indonesia's most volatile volcano spewed smoke and ash on Monday, forcing hundreds of people to flee their villages along its slopes, a disaster official said.

Mount Merapi on the main island of Java rumbled as heavy rain fell around its cloud-covered crater, said disaster mitigation agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho.

The volcano unleashed a column of dark red volcanic material 1,000m into the air, and the ash made the rain thick and muddy in several villages as terrified residents fled to safety, he said.

The sound was heard 30km away, but an eruption did not occur and the volcano's alert level was not raised, spokesman Nugroho said.

Experts detect increased activity at Turrialba Volcano
Posted: Sunday, July 21, 2013 - By L. Arias

Turrialba Volcano National Park is maintaining a green (preventive) alert and is closed to the public.

Experts from the National Seismological Network (RSN) at the University of Costa Rica reported an increase in seismic activity at the Turrialba Volcano, located east of the province of Cartago.

The report indicates that increased volcanic activity was recorded starting on July 13.

“Before that date there was an average of 20 volcanic temblors per day, but now we are registering some 30 per hour. That average has remained constant until this day [July 18]. These earthquakes last 10-15 seconds on average and therefore are mostly of low energy,” the report stated.

Turrialba Volcano National Park is maintaining a green (preventive) alert and is closed to the public, “but the information gathered is intended to alert the population and not to alarm them,” the report added.

RSN volcanologist Gino Gonzalez said current volcano behavior is the same that preceded the last major Turrialba eruptions in 2010 and 2012.
“It is not possible to predict an eruption, however, studies to date indicate that the volcano is in an imbalance that could culminate in an eruption,” read one of the conclusions of the report...

Record Heat in June Extends Globe’s Streak to 340 Months
Published: July 18th, 2013

... June continued the long-term warming trend tied to manmade greenhouse gas pollution as well as natural climate variability. The planet has not recorded a single month with temperatures below the 20th century average since February 1985, when the cult classic film “The Breakfast Club” was released, and the last year with a cooler-than-average June was in 1976. This year so far is tied with 2003 as the seventh-warmest year on record, NOAA said...

Updated: Maintain high energy tremor at the volcano Tungurahua
July 21, 2013

From midnight yesterday, July 20, there have been three episodes of tremor high energy emission, the most important, for its duration, which began today at 08h00 (local time) and remains until end of this newsletter. Associated with this activity have been reported to generate high-intensity constant bellowing. In addition, there have been explosions of small to large size. accompanied by heavy gunfire vibration generated by floor, windows and structures, and are heard even in the Tungurahua Volcano Observatory (OVT), located 14 km north of the volcano. Importantly, the recorded explosion today at 14h18 (local time) emission generated a column of about 5 km above the crater in the direction of movement to the east.Although so far there has been new generation of pyroclastic flows, do not rule that such events occur with the current activity. There have been reports of ash fall in the area of Manzano, Choglontus, Tisaleo, Cevallos and Mapayacu.
It should be emphasized that there is no system of monitoring to predict the exact timing, size and scope of these flows...
With regard to the volcano monitoring system is important to note that some suffered impact and considerable damage associated with eruptive activity recorded on the morning of July 14. An inspection by dle OVT staff determined that solar panels seismic monitoring station of Bilbao suffered the impact of gravel over 1 cm in diameter, which caused the breaking of the glass of solar panels...
For all these reasons it is concluded that the activity of the Tungurahua volcano remains at a level considered high and characterized by strombolian activity, confirming that we keep in the most likely scenario proposed in the Special Report No. 15 of July 16, 2013 .

However, the Kahauale`a 2 flow was largely obscured by fog overnight with the persistent fronts burning forest to the north while there was still a view.
Southeast of Pu`u `O`o, the Peace Day flow hosted scattered breakouts midway across the coastal plain near the Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park boundary; overnight a few small, but new, breakouts occurred. Most of the Peace Day flow, however, remained in lava tubes that emptied into the ocean at the Kupapa`u entry area that produces a persistent gas plume just east, and outside of, the Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park boundary...
