Recent Volcanic Activity

• Smithsonian/USGS Weekly Volcanic Activity Report (New Activity/Unrest)
  • Chuginadak Island/Cleveland Recent Volcanic Activity: AVO reported that during 8-14 February there were no observations of elevated surface temperatures or ash emissions from Cleveland because of partly cloudy conditions. On 10 February satellite observations revealed that the lava dome had grown to about 50 m in diameter. The Volcano Alert Level remained at Watch and the Aviation Color Code remained at Orange
  • Western Java(Indonesia)/Galunggung Recent Volcanic Activity: On 13 February, CVGHM reported that from September 2011 to 8 February 2012 discolorations in the crater lake water at Galunggung were observed. In addition, a sudden increase in water temperature was measured, from 27 degrees Celsius on 5 February to 40 degrees on 8 February. Based on seismic data and crater lake observations, CVGHM raised the Alert Level from 1 to 2 (on a scale of 1-4) on 12 February and recommended staying at least 500 m away from the lake shore.
  • Eastern Java (Indonesia)/Ijen Recent Volcanic Activity: CVGHM lowered the Alert Level for Ijen from 3 to 2 (on a scale of 1-4) on 8 February based on decreased seismicity and visual observations of white plumes rising as high as 300 m above the crater. In addition, a decrease in lake water temperature was measured, which ranged from 42 degrees Celsius on 20 January to 37 degrees on 2 February.
  • Sulawesi/Lokon-Empung Recent Volcanic Activity: According to news articles, an explosion from the Tompaluan crater, in the saddle between the Lokon-Empung peaks, produced an ash plume that rose as high as 2 km above the crater on 10 February; loud "thumping" noises were also heard. Based on information from CVGHM, the Darwin VAAC reported ash plumes that rose to altitudes of 3-3.4 km (10,000-11,000 ft) a.s.l. during 10-12 February, though clouds prevented the detection of ash in satellite imagery.

Based on pilot observations, the Washington VAAC reported an ash plume that rose to an altitude of 5.2 km (17,000 ft) a.s.l. and drifted NW. On 11 February ash-and-steam emissions drifted NW.
