"Of course all volcanoes will explode, as this is going to be a very severe pole shift. What about the months and years preceding the pole shift? It is no secret that Mammoth Lake and the caldera of Yellowstone are warming up, and the populace has been prepared for these occurrences by the movie Volcano where there, in the middle of LA, lava is bubbling up. In fact, there is a fault line running from the approximate San Diego/LA area, up into the Sierras, and this is liable to rupture rather violently during one of the quakes that precedes the pole shift by some months. Volcanic eruptions from that area in the Sierras can be expected. Will Mount St. Helen erupt? All volcanoes that have been active within the memory of man will begin spewing and burping and oozing, and many that were not expected to become active will reactive. "   ZetaTalk - Feb 15, 2000

Japan, Sakurajima volcano – Large eruption of lava

 

Recently, the Japanese agency which monitors Sakurajima Volcano in Japan, issued a raised alert over the threat of a large scale eruption with pyroclastic flow / damaging ash fall for several km around the area.

This eruption is small compared to what they think MIGHT occur soon.

NOV 1 :

Bolivia, Uturuncu volcano - Magma said rising in ancient volcano

 

Magma is rising in a Bolivian volcano that last erupted 300,000 years ago, a U.S. research team monitoring the mountain says.

Researchers from Cornell University, part of an international team studying the Uturuncu volcano, say the magma is uplifting rapidly.

"Uturuncu -- a volcano in the Bolivian Andes Mountains -- was thought to be inactive," Cornell geologist Matt Pritchard said in a university release Tuesday. "The region is populated by 'supervolcanoes' that erupted between 1 (million) and 10 million years ago.

"Now the Uturuncu magma is accumulating in the crust and we're observing whether it is moving upward toward the surface," said Pritchard, who is accompanied in the research by Cornell graduate students Jennifer Jay and Scott Henderson.

"Right now, we have no reason to think that an eruption is imminent," he said.

"The area at Uturuncu has had hundreds of shallow earthquakes per year, but the rate of earthquakes increased briefly due to last year's tremors in Chile," Pritchard said. "These characteristics are unusual for a volcano that has not erupted in 300,000 years."

Reappears bubbling and a new spot in the Sea of ​​Calm EL HIERRO- CANARIAS Thursday November 3, 2011
The volcano of El Hierro throw back to the surface smoking remains of magma. The Canary Islands government again ruled out at this time to evacuate La Restinga
LAPROVINCIA.ES / EFE The volcano of El Hierro is back on Wednesday to issue bubbles to the superficie.In the last hours, new volcanic spots were observed in the sea, have surfaced steaming pyroclastic and bubbling has intensified.
For now, the Canaries Government dismisses the need to evacuate again La Restinga, El Hierro population closer to the underwater eruption that began on October 10 in the Sea of ​​Calm,
Civil Protection Managers met this morning with representatives of the scientific team traveled to the island to analyze the changes that have occurred in recent days in the eruption, which has again thrown to the surface steaming remains of magma (pyroclastic ) and caused vibrations felt in La Restinga.
Experts believe that vibration is associated with a discontinuous pulse dynamics in the tremor signal, which is the indicator of the volcanic eruption.

EL HIERRO- CANARIAS awakens with an earthquake of 4 degrees Wednesday November 2, 2011
The movement recorded by the IGN has been felt by the inhabitants at 7.54 hours

LAPROVINCIA.ES / Reuters The islanders have woken up on Wednesday with a new movement that has shaken the whole island. The National Geographic Institute (IGN) has been in El Hierro, an earthquake of magnitude 4 Frontera northwest at 20 kilometers deep. The tremors were felt throughout the island, as some point to Canary islanders told Radio La Autonomic, and took place at 07.56 hours.
This earthquake is one of the 40 that now has seen the National Geographic Institute and was held to twenty feet deep northwest of the town of Frontera, in the north of the Canary island of El Hierro. Most earthquakes in recent days are recorded in the north of the island, while some are produced in the area of ​​the municipality of El Pinar, in the south, where there has been an underwater volcanic eruption.
Since the beginning of the seismic-volcanic crisis in El Hierro, on 19 July, the National Geographic Institute instrumental recorded a whopping 10 832 earthquakes, although none so far has exceeded the barrier of 4 on the Richter scale , although there has been close.
Scientists do not rule out that there is a new eruption is imminent, but the Emergency Military Unit (UME) has moved to El Hierro campaign shelter can accommodate 2,000 people at the request of Civil Protection Plan for Volcanic Risk Canary Islands (Pevolca), if necessary to face a new evacuation.
The National Geographic Institute scientists have detected an increase in CO2 levels higher than usual on the island of El Hierro. A situation that commonly occurs in the moments preceding a new eruptive phase, which together with the magnitude of recent earthquakes recorded may be an indicator of a new eruption could take place again in the sea, by all indications and data analyzed so far.

EL HIERRO CANARIAS Tuesday November 1, 2011
The volcano launches smoking pyroclastics and a new eruption is expected in the north
The stain of the Calm Sea darkens and scientists are studying whether changes in the seismicity may be the prelude to another eruption. The Island records two types of movements, 25 and 15 km depth
C. M. M. - Las Palmas de Gran Canaria submarine volcano El Hierro relaunched yesterday smoldering pyroclastic, although this time, larger than the 12th of October. "This is part of the natural process," said Carmen Lopez, a scientist at the National Geographic Institute (IGN), an organization that continues monitoring the seismicity of the island and is evaluating whether changes in recent days, with earthquakes that reached 3.9 degrees [last night at 22. 06 in Frontera] and moves at 15 km depth, may be the prelude of another eruption, this time in the north. The residents of La Restinga could see that the stain of the Calm Sea darkened after a day of 120 earthquakes [at press time].
The working group of the Scientific Committee meeting yesterday, which included representatives of non-tip, the National Geographic Institute (IGN), the Centro Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) and the Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO), explained that for a hand, we observe a seismicity occurs at 20-26 km depth and is associated with a possible feedback mechanism process magmatic eruption in progress. "It's the part that feeds the shallower seismicity and is similar to the one we had in July. This is the one with more ability to move and you are registering greater magnitudes," said Lopez, who recalled that the eruption tremor the south is "stable"
The other scenario is 10-15 km depth, and "it could be valued as a precursor to an eruption, although it is early to forecast, since the acceleration of seismicity at that depth, shallower, not producing a deformation increase ", stated the Pevolca.
The deformation would have to provide evidence in the coming days designed to ensure that there would be a new source of emission in the north. Carmen Lopez warned that "the shallower seismicity referred to the north there to watch her, but is smaller." "For now, we see no signs of it happening eruption is imminent, because there has been significant acceleration in the previous deformation and material output acceleration was very important and obvious," he said.
According to reports from scientists at the University of Cadiz, and specifically in reference to ground deformation, also shows two different scenarios. The south of the island shows a remission in increasing deformation, clearly marked by the eruption process and that is evident in the data recorded in the GPS station of La Restinga. In the north of the island, however, there was an increase of the deformation in the northern part and to a lesser extent in the East, led by an acceleration in GPS station located in the NW of the Gulf. As for gases, Involcan is studying helium , el helio,because a month before the eruption of La Restinga there was a significant increase in the gas.
But in addition to the depth and deformation must be other factors to talk of an imminent eruption. "That the seismicity is a little harder is not the only precursor. There is a seismic energy release faster, with higher magnitudes, but you can not give meaning to each particular event, but all the events globally." As for the guts of the phenomenon, "it is important to understand that everything is connected. The process has several points where magma feedback stays until he can go out and do it for the south, but the whole process of north is connected with this activity, "he described. In this event, "there is no magma chamber, but a deeper reservoirs are fed by magmatic material to the shallower parts. The process will end when the flow ceases, the magma comes out one end and do not really know more," concluded.

The volcano of El Hierro- CANARIAS smoking again eject pyroclasts Monday October 31, 2011
There are new pieces of magma to the surface of the sea off the coast of La Restinga. The spot generated at sea by the volcanic process is enlarged
EFE submarine volcano has returned to El Hierro today eject pyroclasts (fragments of magma) steaming the sea surface off the coast of La Restinga, as confirmed to Efe Canary Islands Government.

Residents of the coastal town closest to the eruption have noticed this afternoon that the spot generated at sea by the volcanic process is enlarged and has taken a darker side.

That change is that the volcano has returned to expel pyroclastics that reach the surface of the sea still glowing and smoking, as occurred on October 15, according to the information handled by the scientific committee of the Civil Protection Plan for Risk volcanic Islands (Pevolca).

In addition, this time it has found that magma fragments emerging from the volcano are larger then and cause a darker color in the water.

A spokeswoman for the General Directorate of Security and Emergency Canary-the body that coordinates the Pevolca-has told Efe that, according to scientists, this expulsion of magma is part of the same process that began on October 10.

The first visual evidence of this eruption were precisely sulfur smelling spots that were detected two days later and final confirmation came with the smoldering pyroclastic that emerged on day 15.

El Hierro, - CANARIAS on alert to changes Sunday October 30, 2011
The increased frequency and intensity of earthquakes could be an indication of a new eruption in the north
EFE authorities and scientists remain alert 24 hours before any scenario that may occur on the island of El Hierro, after the increased frequency and intensity of earthquakes in recent days to suggest the possibility of an eruption, this time in the north of the island and probably underwater.
The Director General of Security and Emergency of the Canary Islands, Juan Santana, told Efe that the two most likely scenarios are addressed by the decrease of intensity of seismic events or a fracture and a rise of magma giving rise to a new eruption .
The eruption of the October 10 still no news off the coast south of El Hierro, in the vicinity of La Restinga, which has reduced the pressure in the system since then, Santana said, but now the seismicity is increasing in the north, in front to Frontera. coast.
The largest of these earthquakes, recorded this Sunday morning, has reached the magnitude 3.9 on the Richter scale, but has not altered the seismic alert level on the island, which is generally yellow light and red for the area La Restinga.
Scientists are inclined to recent earthquakes are magmatic and not tectonic origin and are now trying to follow its progress.
"Do not rule out anything," but in case of eruption is likely to be underwater, the official said Security and Emergency.
Earthquakes are occurring at a distance of between four and twelve kilometers from the coast at a depth around 20 km.
Currently there are no new measures for the population, but it is possible that the tunnels Roquille critical in the communication on the island because it connects the capital, Valverde, with Frontera closed again if you keep increasing the intensity of the movements seismic.

People should remain calm and attentive to the events, said Juan Santana

In total, since the day July 17, 2011 10 615 quakes have been localized.
The south of the island shows a remission in increasing deformation, clearly marked by the eruption process and that is evident in the data recorded in the GPS station of La Restinga.
In the north of the island, seen in the deformation component increased to a lesser extent North and the East.
Spot

Throughout the day have been observed clearly the main emission areas in which it has been seen fragments of lava. Also during the October 29 confirms that the stain has already spread to the entire Gulf area.
