Is support for the plug-in is being discontinued either temporarily or permanently? Or is there some type of database update that I should upload?

Hello Marty - Two volcanoes south of Redoubt in Cook Inlet have large, noticeable, and normal steam plumes under optimal atmospheric conditions - Iliamna and Augustine. Redoubt itself has been having vapor plumes associated with cooling from the 2009 lava dome. Thank you for your interest, Cheryl -------- Marty Robinson wrote: Sunday, March 4 around 7 pm. We had just finished dinner at Simon and Seaforts and had returned to our hotel room at the Captin Cook and saw what appeared to be an expanding vertical ash plume over a volcanic peak across the Cook Inlet south of Mt Redoubt. It was clearly defined and silhouetted by a red sky shortly after sunset.. If it was an ash plume, what volcano was it associated with? Did AVO record any activity at this time.. -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050

Hello Andries - Rohl may have been talking about an eruption from Aniakchak - in about 17th century B.C. This was a large eruption and could have had a significant effect on the climate. However, it was likely one of several large volcanic eruptions with climatic impacts, including Mt. St. Helens, Vesuvius, and others. Thank you for your interest, Cheryl -------- Andries Martinson wrote: Sir, Professor David M. Rohl an archaeologist, in his book: &quot;The Lost Testament&quot;,P50, 2002, ISBN 0 7126 6993 0, refers to a cataclysmic volcano outburst in the Aleutian Islands that caused a mini ice age, at about 3119BCE. Do you know about such a volcano ?

Hello Carol - I am not aware of a video like what you're looking for. The closest thing that we have are some timelapse animations of Redoubt's dome growing, like this one: https://www.avo.alaska.edu/images/image.php?id=18724 You can see all of our digital movies (not many!) on this page: https://www.avo.alaska.edu/images/image_search_results.php?volcano=&yea… Thank you, Cheryl Cameron -------- Carol Edson wrote: HI- I am the Geology lab tech at a Bay Area Community College in California. We are trying to find video of thick lava actually in motion ( not exploding- we have lots of great footage of that). This could be a growing lava dome or thick lava moving slowly downslope, etc. We want to show the contract to thin mafic lava flows. Any ideas, links, people to contact etc. would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Sharon - Each image in our database has its own credit line information. Cindy Werner is a USGS employee - a research geologist. R. Clucas predates my time at AVO - I think he did not work for AVO but does let us use his image. Thank you, Cheryl Cameron -------- Sharon Leippi wrote: Is Cindy Werner, who photographed Augustine summit, a professional photographer? Is R. Clucas, who photographed Eruption cloud from Redoubt Volcano on Apr. 21, 1990, a professional photographer? What is the first name that starts with &quot;R&quot;? These images are being used in a cookbook, and I'm gathering info for credits, etc. -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050
