Russia's Kamchatka Volcano spilling record amounts of lava
PETROPAVLOVSK-KAMCHATSKY, December 11 (RIA Novosti) – The erupting Plosky Tolbachik volcano in Russia's Far Eastern Kamchatka Peninsula is spilling a record 1,200 metric tons of lava every second, local seismologists reported on Tuesday.

The 3,085-meter Plosky Tolbachik, which is part of a volcanic complex located 343 kilometers from the region's capital of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, erupted on November 27 for the first time in 36 years.

“This year’s eruption is very powerful. During the Great Tolbachik Fissure Eruption in 1975, the volcano spilled on average 40 cubic meters of magma per second while at present its ‘productivity’ is about 400 cubic meters or 1,200 tons per second,” said Gennady Karpov, a deputy director of the Institute of Volcanology and Seismology under the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Thanks for the 5 stars hf
I wonder what it's VEI level is?
That sounds like an awfully lot of magma.
I'm going to see if I can find out.

From the article:

“If the activity at the upper fissure resumes, we will face a real danger,” he said, adding that the eruption had been already assigned a Red Code status.

Fascinating picture!

True, but it has videos directly linked. LOL

it's not my thread, just trying to give you some visual to your thread. It is a massive eruption, no doubt, yet so far from anywhere that it is overlooked regularly.

If this happened in North America, I'd be there posting live video right now. I love this shit.

Hope you get your answers.

Maybe if you emailed the USGS, they would get you the answers you look for, albeit it would most likely be a canned reply.

I don't think GLP has any noted volcanologists that post, so I'd try to maybe get an Alaska Volcano Observatory official to reply. They are much more familiar with the region than say a Podunk USGS from Pasadena or Menlo Park.
