Volcano on Italian island of Stromboli spews lava and ash in latest eruption

August 28, 2019 | 2:43pm

A volcano on the Italian island of Stromboli erupted Wednesday, sending a massive cloud of smoke and ash more than a mile into the sky – almost two months after a similar explosion killed a hiker there, according to reports.

The “high intensity” blast in southern Italy off the Sicilian coast was recorded just after noon, according to the National Institute of Geophysics and Vulcanology. No casualties were reported.

The explosion, which was classified as a “paroxysmal event,” produced a pyroclastic flow — a fast-moving mixture of gas, rock and volcanic ash that stretched several hundred meters into the sea, according to CNN.

In the July eruption, the volcano releasing hot trapped magma in a powerful explosion that killed the 35-year-old hiker, Massimo Imes, and covered the popular tourist destination in ash.

On Wednesday, video footage showed a group of Italians fleeing the tiny island in panic as gigantic clouds of ash rolled across the sea, according to The Telegraph.

On another small vessel, a British family watched as the eruption took place.

“Wow! The whole mountain is shaking!” a man says. “Oh my goodness, that is really bad, guys.”

Nicole Bremner, an Australian living in England, was on a boat off Stromboli when the eruption occurred, the news outlet reported.

“We were just at Stromboli volcano watching the small eruptions. We left and then this giant eruption happened!” she wrote in social media, adding that the smoke and ash had left “a metallic taste in our mouths.”

Elena Schiera, 19, of Palermo, Sicily, was on a sailboat during the eruption.

“We were sailing at a safe distance as per ordinance, when all of a sudden we heard a loud bang and saw a large black cloud spewing out of the Stromboli crater and pouring into the sea,” she told CNN.

“We immediately increased the speed of the boat to the maximum, even though, being a sailboat, the speed was still limited. Then the cloud arrived at sea and began to advance quickly towards us,” Schiera said.

“At that moment the panic broke out because we had the cloud a few meters away from our stern, but thanks to my father who was at the helm we managed to get away just in time because then the cloud started to rise again.”

Experts believe the volcano on Stromboli, part of the Aeolian archipelago, has been in nearly continuous eruption for at least 2,000 years, with incandescent lava, ash and volcanic rock regularly spewing from its cone.

“The situation is under control, but all the same we have activated the normal civil protection procedures,” said Marco Giorgianni, the mayor of Lipari, the most populated of the area’s islands.

Japan's Mount Sakurajima volcano makes largest eruption in 3 years

Nov. 8 (UPI) -- Japan's Mount Sakurajima volcano erupted again Friday -- only this time sending out its largest plume in three years, officials said.

The eruption ejected smoke and debris more than 3 miles into the air, the Japan Meteorological Agency said.

The explosions in the mountain's Minamidake crater, at 3,412 feet in elevation, darkened skies over Kyushu island in southwest Japan and formed the largest ash cloud since 2016.

Kagoshima Prefecture officials said there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.

"Explosive activity continues," the weather agency's Volcanic Ash Advisory Center warned on Thursday. It referred to an ash plume that rose to 7,000 feet, threatening planes flying nearby.

Pulverized rock in volcanic ash can get stuck inside jet engines and stall airliners in flight. A British Airways Boeing 747 lost all four engines after flying through an ash cloud over waters off Indonesia in 1982. The crew managed to restart the engines on both occasions and landed safely.

The Japanese agency said volcanic activity is expected to continue, although debris flows of lava are expected only around a small radius surrounding the crater.

The Kagoshima branch of the weather agency rated the volcano as Level 2 Friday, indicating "Do not approach the crater."

Japan's most active volcano, Mount Sakurajima sits on a peninsula that was formerly an island. Lava from a 1914 eruption connected it with the Osumi Peninsula on Kyushu island.

Africa is Splitting in Two, Creating Dozens of Volcanoes  November 19, 2019

The process of rifting in Africa means that the continent is slowly breaking apart and with that comes lots of volcanoes, some with the potential for massive explosive eruptions.

The modern geography of Earth is created by the plate tectonic engine that runs in our planet. What we see as familiar maps today would have looked very different 50 million, 500 million, 3 billion years ago. That's because the continents shift over time at rates of centimeters per year.

This might not seem like much, but over geologic time, that means they can collide and separate multiple times. At some points in Earth's history, we had supercontinents, when all the landmasses were one. Today, we're almost at the opposite end of the spectrum, with many continents far apart.

Currently, we only have one location where a continent is busy splitting itself apart, and that's the East African Rift. This part of the African continent extends to the southwest from Eritrea and represents one part of a three-armed rift system. The other two parts have separated to the point where new ocean crust has formed, creating the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. This is the boundary between the African and Arabian plates.

https://www.discovermagazine.com/planet-earth/all-the-volcanoes-mad...

However, the third arm has not produced any new ocean, at least not yet. Instead, we have a valley that extends into the heart of Africa where the continent is spreading apart. This spreading likely started some 25 to 30 million years ago. With the spreading comes volcanism ... and a lot of it. There are only a few places on Earth with as many volcanoes as the East African Rift in Ethiopia and Eritrea.

The Terra MODIS image above shows just how extensive that volcanism is. Volcanoes start in the Red Sea itself, with islands like Zukur and Hanish. The tiny dot off the coast of Yemen is Jebal Al-Tair, a volcanic island that last erupted in 2007, with lava flows reaching the sea.

Once you head inland, you run into the beast of Erta'Ale, with its active lava lake at the summit. The volcano is almost 60 miles (100 kilometers) from end to end. Lots of smaller cones on its slopes, like Bora Ale and Gada Ale, have produced most of the lava flows. Ale Bagu, on the other hand, is a basaltic volcano with a much more explosive history.

Just off the shores of the Red Sea is Dubbi, a large stratovolcano that, in 1861, sent lava flows more than a dozen miles (22km) down its slopes, produced 19 craters at the summit and rained ash 180 miles (300km) from the volcano. To the south at the border with Djibouti, Manda-Inakir formed a new cinder cone during eruptions in 1928-'29.

The dark ash plume from Nabro can be spotted just to the east (right) of Erta'Ale. In 2011, Nabro produced an eruption that unleashed lava flows and a large ash and gas plume. Even with its remote location, the eruption killed seven people and may have played a role in slight atmospheric cooling the following year. Nabro is a bimodal volcano that erupts hot and runny basalt as well as sticky rhyolite, so this eruption was much more passive than previous ones at this large caldera volcano.

The dark smudge below Erta'Ale is Alayta, another basaltic volcano. It last erupted in 1915 and its 1907 eruption sent a large lava flow down its slopes. Yet, right next to Alatya is Afderà, a rhyolite volcano that sits on the nexus of three faults. This is another example of the bimodal character of the East African Rift -- a lot of close volcanoes erupting low silica basalt or high-silica rhyolite and not a lot in between. In 2005, there was an ash-rich eruption from Dabbahu, south of Erta'Ale that caused 6,000 people to be evacuated.

Things Get Explosive

Near the bottom of the image, Alutu sits between two lakes and has over 300,000 people living within less than 20 miles (30km) of the volcano. It has a history of explosive eruptions of rhyolite and obsidian flows. The most recent was only about 2,000 years ago. This is joined by Tullu Moje, another rhyolitic volcano to the north of Alutu, that erupted as recently as 1900.

Two calderas lurk to the very south of the East African Rift in Ethiopia. The O'a and Corbetti calderas are both rhyolite volcanoes with very large explosive eruptions in their past. They are also some of the most potentially hazardous volcanoes on the planet, with over 450,000 and 1.1 million people living with a couple dozen miles of each of them, respectively. Neither are known to have erupted in historical times, but both are potentially active volcanoes.

This isn't even all the volcanism of the East African Rift. Volcanoes like Ol Doinyo Lengai, Kilimanjaro and Nyiragongo lie to the south of this shot.

The process of splitting a continent -- or even just trying to -- can be incredibly geologically active. The shear number of volcanoes in the East African Rift show just how powerful it can be.

Volcano eruption today: Huge volcano in Guatemala ERUPTS - 3 explosions an HOUR

VOLCANO eruptions at Guatemala’s Santa Maria volcano this month saw up to three explosions per hour at the mountain’s summit, according to recent reports.

PUBLISHED: 13:02, Thu, Nov 28, 2019

According to INVISUMEH, explosions surfaced at Santa Maria one to three times per day from November 20 to 26.

The eruptions sent “avalanches” of material descending towards the east, west and southwest flanks of the mountain.

Explosions also coughed out a billowing plume of smoke into the sky, reaching 1,698-2,952 metres above Santa Maria’s 12,000-foot height and drifting towards the west and southwest.

Some of this ash fell locally, around El Faro, Santa Maria, and Viejo Palma.

At the Pacaya volcano, to the southeast of Santa Maria, activity was much quieter.

During the same six-day period, officials detected only weak strombolian activity, defined by mild blasts and incandescent cinders.

According to INVISUMEH, lava flows are still active to the northwest of the mountain and reach 400 metres.

Material which caused avalanches at the site was ejected 75 metres above the volcano’s summit.

INVISUMEH reported more violent activity at Guatemala’s infamous El Fuego volcano.

From November 20 to 26, the organisation recorded six to 15 explosions per hour ash El Fuego’s crater rim, which generated ash clouds rising 3,600 feet.

INVISUMEH also noted “incandescent“ material ejected from the site to heights of 100 to 450 metres, which caused avalanches of material travelling long-distances.

Lava flows also remain active at the site, and as of November 24, are 300 to 800 metres long.

El Fuego is Guatemala’s most dangerous volcano, and its most recent eruption cycle began in 2002.

The volcano made headlines last year when it violently erupted with little warning.

On June 3, 2018, the volcano sent ash rocketing nearly four miles above its summit and generated a super-heated pyroclastic flow which cascaded down the mountain and into local communities.

Some 200 people are thought to have died in the chaos, as the sudden nature of the eruption left little time for evacuation.

A spectacular week for volcano activity: Sakurajima and Aso volcanoes in Japan: Klyuchevskoy Volcano in Russia: Mexico's Popocatepetl Volcano and Fuego volcano all active

Smoke was seen rising from the Sakurajima Volcano in Japan

Smoke was seen rising from the Sakurajima Volcano in Kagoshima, Japan, on November 28, with the area impacted by a number of days of volcanic activity. In total, “nine eruptions and eight explosions were detected between November 25 and 29 November 2019,” according to VolcanoDiscovery.com. The same report, which cites the Japanese Meteorological Agency, stated that the plume of smoke from the volcano reached 14,400-feet in altitude, resulting in a large amount of sulfur dioxide being released. The Japanese Meteorological Agency forecasted ashfall in the area on the same date. The dramatic scene comes three weeks after the largest explosion at the volcano in three years. Yahoo

Up to 20 people are injured with some fighting for life after a volcano erupts off the coast of New Zealand - as horror photos show tour group INSIDE the crater moments before it blew

• White Island, 48km from the Bay of Plenty region, began erupting about 2.15pm
• Thick, white plumes of smoke are filling the sky around the New Zealand island
• Up to 100 people were reportedly on or near the island when it erupted

Up to 20 people have been injured - some critically - after a volcano erupted off the coast of New Zealand. 

Dramatic footage has emerged of the eruption, which happened at Whakaari/White Island, just off New Zealand's coastline, at about 2.15pm local time on Monday. 

Tourists on a boat travelling toward the island were rushed inside as plumes of thick, grey smoke billowed out of the caverns and in their direction.

A man with an American accent could be heard saying 'we've got to get out of here' in the clip.  

New Zealand's Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern initially said there were about 100 people on or around the island at the time of the eruption and not all were accounted for. 

Police have since confirmed that number is closer to 50, and said while some have been transported to shore, others are still missing. 

'Of those transported to shore, at least one has been critically injured,' a spokesman said.

'Emergency services are working to ensure the safety of everyone involved, including rescue staff.'

A rescue operation is currently underway to save people who were pictured inside the crater at 2.10pm, minutes before the explosion, on the White Island Crater Rim camera.  

Other shots from the camera, displayed online every 10 minutes, showed the blast before the camera went black. 

A second, slightly smaller eruption went off at 3.45pm, according to local fishermen. 

Tourists from cruise liner Ovation of the Seas were visiting the island on Monday morning, according to the company's chief executive Mark Cairns.

He said the majority of those injured in the eruption are from the ship.

Judy Turner, the Mayor of Whakatane also confirmed tourists on the island have been injured.  

A spokeswoman for Tourism Bay of Plenty said Volcanic Helicopters and one boat have still not been accounted for. 

A White Island Tours boat carrying visitors was also close to the island, which is 48kms from the Bay of Plenty. 

Calvin Kingi, who works for the tour company, posted on Facebook saying his group got out just in time.

'White Island just erupted as we left, we have our work mates and a tour still on the island, I hope they okay,' he wrote. 

An emergency operation centre has reportedly been established at Whakatane Hospital. 

Family members of people who were on the island at the time are slowly arriving on the wharf, waiting for any updates, according to local media. 

Seven rescue helicopters are on the way to the island while others situated nearby are on standby.

Thick, black plumes of smoke are still filling the sky around the island.

There is a 'possibility of a very large eruption' under the level four coding, as well as a further chance of a flank eruption, which is when simultaneous explosions occur around the volcano rather than from the summit alone.

Whakaari is New Zealand's only active marine volcano, and is also the nation's most active, with regular eruptions since 2012.

The most recent eruption prior to today was minor, and occurred in 2016.

At least 70 per cent of the volcano is under sea level, and a single crater makes up most of the island, which is frequently visited by tourists. 

Geological hazard trackers GeoNet had registered moderate volcanic unrest on the island for weeks, before the eruption began at 12:10pm AEDT. 

The local council says New Zealand Police and Bay of Plenty Civil Defence are working together to respond.

MEXICO: 01-09-2020 The National Center for Disaster Prevention (CENAPRED) reported that at 06:33 am local time, an explosion with moderate ash content was detected in the Popocatepetl volcano, the column presented a height of 3 km, with a northeast direction. 

'Our people are panicking': Taal volcano in Philippines gushes lava, spews ash more than 60 miles into Manila

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2020/01/12/taal-volcano-p...

TAGAYTAY, Philippines – Red-hot lava gushed from of a Philippine volcano on Monday after a sudden eruption of ash and steam that forced villagers to flee and shut down Manila’s international airport, offices and schools.

There were no immediate reports of casualties or major damage from Taal volcano’s eruption south of the capital that began Sunday (January 12, 2019). But clouds of ash blew more than 100 kilometers (62 miles) north, reaching the bustling capital, Manila, and forcing the shutdown of the country’s main airport with more than 240 international and domestic flights cancelled so far.

An alternative airport north of Manila at Clark freeport remained open but authorities would shut it down too if ashfall threatens flights, the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines said.

The government’s disaster-response agency reported about 8,000 villagers have moved to at least 38 evacuation centers in the hard-hit province of Batangas and nearby Cavite province, but officials expect the number to swell with hundreds of thousands more being brought out of harm’s way. Some residents could not move out of ash-blanketed villages due to a lack of transport and poor visibility. Some refused to leave their homes and farms, officials said.

“We have a problem, our people are panicking due to the volcano because they want to save their livelihood, their pigs and herds of cows,” Mayor Wilson Maralit of Balete town told DZMM radio. “We’re trying to stop them from returning and warning that the volcano can explode again anytime and hit them.”

 Images: https://www.usatoday.com/picture-gallery/news/world/2020/01/12/taal...

Maralit, whose town lies along the coastline of Taal Lake surrounding the erupting volcano, appealed for troops and additional police to be deployed to stop distraught residents from sneaking back to their high-risk coastal villages.

After months of restiveness that began last year, Taal suddenly rumbled back to life Sunday, blasting steam, ash and pebbles up to 10 to 15 kilometers (6 to 9 miles) into the sky, according to the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology.

The government volcano-monitoring agency raised the danger level around Taal three notches to level 4, indicating “an imminent hazardous eruption.” Level 5, the highest, means a hazardous eruption is underway and could affect a larger area with high-risk zones that would need to be cleared of people, said Renato Solidum, who heads the institute.

Ma. Antonio Bornas, the agency’s chief volcanologist, said lava spurted out in fountains from the volcano early Monday while its ash and steam ejections eased. It’s hard to tell when the eruption would stop, she said, citing Taal’s similar restiveness in the 1970s that lasted for about four months.

The volcanology institute reminded the public that the small island where the volcano lies is a “permanent danger zone,” although fishing villages have existed there for years. It stressed that the “total evacuation” of people on the volcano island and coastal areas “at high risk to pyroclastic density currents and volcanic tsunami within a 14-kilometer (8.7-mile) radius from Taal.”

Authorities continue to detect swarms of earthquakes, some of them felt with rumbling sounds, and a slight inflation of portions of the 1,020-foot (311-meter) volcano, officials said and advised residents to stay indoors and wear masks and goggles outdoors.

Government work and classes in schools in a wide swath of towns and cities were suspended Monday, including in Manila, to avoid health risks posed by the ashfall.

One of the world’s smallest volcanoes, Taal is among two dozen active volcanoes in the Philippines, which lies along the so-called Pacific “Ring of Fire,” a seismically active region that is prone to earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

About 20 typhoons and other major storms each year also lash the Philippines, which lies between the Pacific and the South China Sea, making it one of the world’s most disaster-prone countries.

Mystery of Weird Hum Heard Around the World Solved
https://www.livescience.com/underwater-volcano-hum.html

Mysterious seismic hums detected around the world were likely caused by an unusual geologic event — the rumblings of a magma-filled reservoir deep under the Indian Ocean, a new study finds. 

These odd hums were an unconventional geologic birth announcement. A few months after the sounds rippled around the Earth, a new underwater volcano was born off the coast of the island of Mayotte, located between Madagascar and Mozambique in the Indian Ocean.

Mysterious Hum Identified as the Formation of a New Underwater Volcano

https://www.ecowatch.com/new-underwater-volcano-hum-sounds-26446660...

Mysterious hums that were heard around the world in 2018 have now been identified as the rumblings of a magma-filled reservoir deep under the Indian Ocean, announcing the birth of an underwater volcano, according to a new study, as CNN reported.

Researchers started to detect seismic movement from the birth of the volcano in May and June of 2018, which eventually led to a humming noise that radiated thousands of miles away from where the volcano was born about 22 miles off the coast of Mayotte in the Indian Ocean, one of several in the Comoros archipelago found between Mozambique and Madagascar, as CNN reported.

For months, the forming volcano produced tiny earthquakes and a slight humming too weak to feel. That changed on Nov. 11, 2018 when the new volcano announced its birth by sending seismic waves all over the world that were felt in Kenya, Chile, Canada and Hawaii, nearly 11,000 miles away. For almost half an hour, the seismic waves produced a humming that got louder and louder, as The Washington Post reported.

Researchers developed new seismological methods to create a year-long timeline to reconstruct what happened during the formation of the new volcano. They published their results this week in the journal Nature Geoscience.

Krakatoa volcano (Indonesia): violent eruption, ash to 47,000 ft altitude

A large magmatic eruption is taking place at the volcano right now. Based on satellite imagery, VAAC Darwin spotted a high-level ash and SO2 plume reaching 47,000 ft (15 km) altitude moving WNW. 
A strong thermal hot spot is detected as well. Both the webcam on Anak Krakatau Island and from the coast (in 40 km distance) show strong lava fountaining from the volcano. 
This seems to be the strongest eruptive phase since the violent phreatomagmatic activity following the partial collapse of the volcano on 22 Dec 2018, which had triggered a deadly tsunami that killed hundreds of people on Java's west coast.

They recorded explosions 15 volcanoes in a single night

The Krakatoa eruption generated a chain reaction in different volcanoes in the Pacific

On Friday night the world was surprised by the eruption from the Indonesian volcano Anak Krakatau (in Spanish, son of Krakatoa), as it is considered one of the volcanoes most powerful in the world.
According to the first reports, the volcano threw lava and ejected large ash clouds that reached up to 15 kilometers high.
In addition, the eruptive pulse of the Krakatoa It generated a series of telluric movements, alarming the population to the point of leaving quarantines behind and moving away from the dangerous place.
And that was not all. Immediately, the energy released from the Indonesian colossus, would have activated the so-called “Belt or Pacific Ring of Fire“, a volcanic cord that integrates other countries such as Japan and even Mexico.
Last night more than 15 volcanoes that are within the Belt de Fuego, among them the most outstanding in the region of Popocatepetl in Mexico and Fuego in Guatemala.

According to Volcano Discovery, the colossi that registered activity last night, in the midst of the contingency by COVID-19:
Klyuchevskoy, on Kamchatka. He threw ash at a height of 6,100 meters Shiveluch, on Kamchatka. Eject volcanic ash at an altitude of 36000 ft. Aso, Central Kyushu. Kuchinoerabu-jima, located in Ryukyu Islands, Sakurajima, located in Kyushu, Japan. Ibu, Halmahera, IndonesiaKrakatoa, located in the Sunda Strait, Indonesia. Merapi, in Central Java, Indonesia.

Kerinci, in SumatraPopocatépetl, in central Mexico. At 22:15 an explosion was registered that generated an eruptive column close to 1 km in height and the emission of incandescent fragments at a short distance, Sangay, Ecuador. He expelled ash at a height of 5,800 meters Sabancaya, located in Peru. The volcano emitted ash that reached a height of 7,300 meters. Nevados de Chillán, is located in Chile.

Anak Krakatoa Eruption 4/11/2020

https://www.jpost.com/international/volcanic-region-active-after-80...

Volcanic region active after 800 years, previous eruption lasted 300 years
According to the Guardian, beginning on January 21, the peninsula region has suffered over 8,000 earthquakes due to magma shifting under the ground beneath the volcanic system.
APRIL 11, 2020 03:50

A volcanic region in the Reykjanes peninsula, south-west of Iceland’s capital, that has been dormant for over 800 years has been showing activity over the past two months, according to scientists. The last time the volcanoes in the region erupted in the 10th century, fountains of lava sporadically spewed out of the crater vents over the course of 300 years.

According to the Guardian, beginning on January 21, the peninsula region has suffered over 8,000 earthquakes due to magma shifting under the ground beneath the volcanic system.

“It seems that after being relatively inactive for many centuries, this region is waking up,” said Lancaster University volcanologist Dave McGarvie.

The extended eruption period is powered by five volcanic systems interconnected within the Icelandic region. Scientists claim that these five systems interact with one another every 1,000 years or so, creating the abnormally long eruption episodes - whereas normally volcanoes in the region are only active for a few years and then become dormant shortly after.

With the volcano being nine miles from Iceland's Keflavik international airport, the Iceland GeoSurvey estimates that if the volcanic system begins to erupt then eventually the entire complex will be coated with 2cm of ash - halting all travel to and from the area.

“The worst-case scenario is if lava flows towards the town of Grindavík,” said Kristín Jónsdóttir from the Icelandic Meteorological Office, according to the Guardian. “There is also other important infrastructure in the vicinity including a geothermal power plant. Hot and cold water supply may be at risk, along with roads, including the road between Reykjavík and Keflavík airport.”

While the region typically remains active for centuries once it gets going, the eruptions are sporadic and small in comparison to larger volcanic events such Skaftáreldar (fires of Skaftá) within the crater row of Lakagígar, which lasted for about a year and became the most fatal volcanic event in Iceland's history.

The Skaftáreldar eruption produced around 14-cubic-kilometers of basalt lava - most of the lava was produced within the first five months. Researchers claim that Skaftáreldar occurred in ten "pulses" consisting of short-lived explosions followed by longer periods of "fire-fountaining."

Not only did the immediate effects have a significant impact on the Icelandic population, the eruptions also produced millions of tons of hydrogen flouride and sulfur dioxide, which polluted nearly the entirety of the region and still has an effect on the climate today.

According to Wired, sixty percent of all livestock died from pollution and 10,000 Icelanders died from the famine that followed. The smog that has built up around most of Eastern Europe today is known as the "Laki haze" named after the crater row.

So, while the recent volcanic activity in the Reykjanes peninsula will more than likely be minor in comparison to Lakagígar, it will still be an inconvenience to say the least for hundreds of years to come if the volcanic system turns on the jets.

“People on the Reykjanes peninsula, and their descendants for several generations, may have to be on their guard and ready to evacuate every so often,” said McGarvie.

Etna volcano (Sicily, Italy): explosions from two craters

Friday May 22, 2020 08:31 AM

INGV recorded explosions due to ongoing strombolian activity from the summit craters.
Today at 06:05 local time an eruption at New Southeast Crater generated an ash plume, which reached approx. 14,700 ft (4,500 m) altitude and drifted SW.
Explosive activity also continues at Voragine crater. Increasingly ash plumes were dispersed near the summit.
Seismicity remained elevated including periods of increased amplitude tremor located beneath the New SE Crater.
Ground deformation shows no significant impulsive variations associated with the ongoing activity.

One of world’s most dangerous lakes is growing in belly of Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano

August 26 2020

A lake the size of five football fields growing in the belly of a volcano sounds fantastic, but the facts just keep getting stranger in the case of Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano.

A study released this month by the U.S. Geological Survey has found the mysterious lake is one of the world’s hottest bodies of water.

Its deadly waters range from 176 to 185 degrees, according to the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory. To put that in perspective, water at 154 degrees “instantaneously” scalds human skin, according to Hotwaterlab.com.

“Globally, only a few volcanic lakes have surface temperatures greater than ... 176 degrees Fahrenheit,” the USGS reported Aug 8.

Why is the water so hot? Experts have not settled on a specific reason.

Major Stromboli volcanic eruption in Italy (pictures and videos)

Nov 11, 2020

A major explosion occurred at Stromboli at 8:04:20 UTC / 9:04 pm local time on November 10, 2020.

The powerful explosion event lasted about 6 minutes (until 20:10:00 UTC), with at least three explosions of minor intensity in addition to the Big Blast. The eruption column rose higher than the Pizzo (sopra la Fosse).

The ejecta, lava and incandescent rocks mainly fell on the Sciara del Fuoco, with a small proportion also covering the Pizzo sopra la Fossa, like the previous major eruption that killed one back in 2019.

The volcanic eruption has been captured by all seismic stations on Stromboli and was characterized by a sequence of explosive events that began at 20:03.50 (UTC), as shown by the seismic graph below

Meanwhile, the parameters of the eruptive activity has returned to normal levels.

According to Italian officials, the seismic event related to the eruption (3.5 x10-4 m / s in speed and 0.38 x10-4 m in displacement) exceeded normal values by more than an order of magnitude.

'High intensity' volcanic blast caught on camera on Italian island of Stromboli

Posted Nov 16, 2020

STROMBOLI, Italy — An Italian volcano spewed lava, smoke and ash Monday in a "high intensity" eruption.

Dramatic, timelapse video captured the eruption on camera.

Italian scientists said the explosion took place on Stromboli, an island located off the coast of Sicily.

Images show the start of the explosion and streams of rock and other debris rapidly running down the side of the volcano.

Thermal camera images show the intense heat of the eruption.

Scientists say the event lasted four minutes and "was characterized by a sequence of explosive events and landsliding."

The Stromboli volcano is one of the most active on earth.

Its minor explosions and random spectacular lava flows descend from the crater directly into the sea.

BOILING MUD CRATER CAUSES ALARM IN PEOPLE OF MOLOACÁN, VERACRUZ

MEXICO - In Veracruz, the appearance of a small crater that spews boiling mud and steam caused alarm among the inhabitants of the municipality of Moloacán, who feared that it was the birth of a volcano.

The vapor trail emerging from a small crater of approximately one meter in diameter, worried residents of the Acalapa II community, in Veracruz. Geologists and geographers from the Civil Protection of Veracruz inspected the area and determined that it was a "saline dome."

It is a phenomenon caused by the earthquakes that are registered in the southern region of the country, in fact, it is not something new, in 2014 a similar phenomenon emerged that lasted several months. Although it does not represent a risk to the population, the exhalations of this dome could contaminate the water of rivers, flora and fauna of the place.

Salt domes are formed by the accumulation of salts, when other types of sediments bury them and pressure builds up, they can rise to the upper layers and pass through them, this is what causes deformations in the soil.

Guatemala Pacaya volcano — 3/19/2021

The effusive-explosive eruption of the volcano continues at high levels.
The short phases of lava fountains (paroxysm) continue to erupt from Mackenney crater at roughly regular intervals. The activity of the summit crater generated a dense dark ash plumes reaching an estimated altitude of 13,100 ft (4,000 m). Volcanic ash is spreading about 30 km to the south and southwest of the volcano. Ejected glowing pyroclastic material reached distance as far as 400 m away from the crater.

St Vincent orders evacuations as volcanic eruption appears imminent — Caribbean island says there is a ‘substantial prospect of disaster’ after several days of increased seismic activity

The Caribbean island of St Vincent has declared a red alert and issued an evacuation order after seismologists warned that the La Soufrière volcano shows signs of an imminent eruption.

The prime minister, Ralph Gonsalves, issued the order on Thursday after several days of increased seismic activity.

The country’s National Emergency Management Organisation said on Twitter there was a “substantial prospect of disaster”, and warned residents to “be ready, get your things in order”.

“Safe areas where people will be evacuated to are from North Union to Kingstown, on the Windward side of the island, Barrouallie to Kingstown on the Leeward side and the Grenadine Islands,” Nemo tweeted.

A cruise ship from the Royal Caribbean line was heading to the island to help with evacuation efforts, Nemo said.

The geologist Richard Robertson said that La Soufrière could erupt in a matter of hours or days, according to the St Vincent online newspaper News 784.

Monitoring stations had reported long earthquakes, which suggested that fresh magma was trying to reach the surface, and indicated that the volcano was moving to “an explosive stage”.

Video posted on social media showed a plume of smoke towering above the volcano, which is the highest point in the island country of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
