VONA/KVERT DAILY REPORT
Kamchatkan and Northern Kuriles Volcanic Activity
September 02, 2017, all time is UTC
SHEVELUCH VOLCANO (CAVW #300270)
56.64 N, 161.32 E; Elevation 10768 ft (3283 m), the dome elevation ~8200 ft (2500 m)
Aviation Color Code is ORANGE
A growth of the lava dome continues (a viscous lava flow reveal in the northern its part), strong fumarole activity, ash explosions, hot avalanches and an incandescence of the dome blocks and hot avalanches accompany this process. Satellite data by KVERT showed a thermal anomaly over the volcano.
KLYUCHEVSKOY VOLCANO (CAVW #300260)
56.06 N, 160.64 E; Elevation 15580 ft (4750 m)
Aviation Color Code is ORANGE
A moderate eruptive activity of the volcano probably continues. Satellite data by KVERT showed the volcano was obscured by clouds.
BEZYMIANNY VOLCANO (CAVW #300250)
55.97 N, 160.6 E; Elevation 9453 ft (2882 m)
Aviation Color Code is ORANGE
A moderate eruptive activity of the volcano continues: an incandescence of the lava dome is observing at night and a lava flow is squeezing at the north-western flank of the lava dome. Satellite data by KVERT showed a thermal anomaly over the volcano.
EBEKO VOLCANO (CAVW #290380)
50.69 N, 156.01 E; Elevation 3792 ft (1156 m)
Aviation Color Code is ORANGE
A moderate activity of the volcano continues. Satellite data by KVERT showed the volcano was obscured by clouds.
KARYMSKY VOLCANO (CAVW #300130)
54.05 N, 159.44 E; Elevation 4874 ft (1486 m)
Aviation Color Code is YELLOW
A moderate gas-steam activity of the volcano continues. Satellite data by KVERT showed a thermal anomaly over the volcano.

(1) VOLCANO OBSERVATORY NOTICE FOR AVIATION (VONA) (2) Issued:20170902/0107Z (3) Volcano:Ebeko (CAVW #290380) (4) Current Aviation Color Code:ORANGE (5) Previous Aviation Color Code:orange (6) Source:KVERT (7) Notice Number:2017-223 (8) Volcano Location:N 50 deg 41 min E 156 deg 0 min (9) Area:Northern Kuriles, Russia
(10) Summit Elevation:3791.68 ft (1156 m)(11) Volcanic Activity Summary:A moderate explosive activity of Ebeko volcano continues. According to the data by observers from Severo-Kurilsk (Paramushir Island, Northern Kuriles), an ash plume rose up to 3.3 km a.s.l. and extended about 7 km to the east from the volcano on September 2, 00:42 UTC.\n\nA moderate gas-steam with some amount of ash activity of the volcano continues. Ash explosions up to 16,400 ft (5 km) a.s.l. could occur at any time. Ongoing activity could affect low-flying aircraft and airport of Severo-Kurilsk.
