Re: AVO Project Question

Hi Andrew, A good source to learn about volcano monitoring is located here: http://volcanoes.usgs.gov/activity/methods/ At the Alaska Volcano Observatory, many of our volcanoes are remote, so it is not practical to conduct certain kinds of monitoring on a regular basis, such as water sampling, or ground-based gas measurements. However, we have several other monitoring tools. We sometimes conduct airborne gas flights to collect volcanic gas output data, we have many volcanoes instrumented with seismometers and GPS that send near real-time data to the observatory. Several satellite data streams provide us with visual, thermal, and chemical data about the volcanoes. We have recently been using infrasound arrays to remotely detect explosions. We also rely on local pilots, boat operators, and residents to provide us with visual observations of ash fall, or photographs of volcanic activity. Webcams also help us to see what's happening at a volcano when we can't physically be there ourselves. We also spend much of our time studying the geologic deposits at volcanoes to understand their eruption history so that we can better determine the style and magnitude of future eruptions. Hope that helps! -Janet -------- Andrew Rowan wrote: Dear AVO, I am a student at Moorestown Friends School in Southern New Jersey. We are doing a project about Monitoring Volcanoes in Alaska.

Re: St Augustine

Hi Andrea, It sounds like you've been able to find some information from our website on Augustine volcano, but here's the link just in case: http://www.avo.alaska.edu/volcanoes/volcinfo.php?volcname=augustine The upper part of Augustine is quite steep, then the slope decreases toward the coast. The upper 2000 feet has a slope of about 60%, while the entire volcano, from the highest point at 4025 feet to the coast, has an average slope of about 25%. Eruptions from Augustine generally produce fine-grained ash, pyroclastic flow deposits, lahars (mudflows) and lava domes at the summit. Although we can't predict when a next eruption will happen at Augustine, we do monitor the volcano with seismic instruments and sometimes measure volcanic gas emissions. Before Augustine erupts, we expect to see a significant increase in seismic activity as well as gas output. You can read about this precursory activity here, as it pertains to the most recent eruption of Augustine in 2006: http://www.avo.alaska.edu/volcanoes/activity.php?volcname=Augustine&eruptio… -Janet -------- Andrea Case wrote: Hello. I am doing a volcano project in science where I have to make a poster about a volcano of my choice. the volcano I picked so happened to be in Alaska, the St. Augustine volcano. there are specific things I need to know and put on my poster. I have been having a hard time finding the slope and the types of materials released for St Augustine, I was wondering if you could help me there. I was also wondering how long(a prediction)it will be until Augustine explodes again. your help will be greatly appreciative. also I what to say that this website is very, very helpful for information.

Hi Tim, Prior to this current eruption, Pavlof last erupted in August 2007, and yes, lava was erupted. You can read the details about that eruption here: http://www.avo.alaska.edu/volcanoes/activity.php?volcname=Pavlof&eruptionid… -Janet -------- Tim Taylor wrote: I have been trying to find out the last time Pavlof release lava. I know it has erupted many times in my life but wondered if any of those prior eruptions involved lava. Thanks

Hi Thomas, We'd like to see your original pictures. You can send them directly to me at janet.schaefer(a)alaska.gov. Please let me know if we have your permission to add them to our public website, giving you credit as the photographer. It is also helpful if you provide the date and time of each photograph. Thanks very much! Janet -------- Thomas Kiley wrote: Howd. I don't have much of a good camera, just the camera on my cell phone, but I have been taking pics of Pavlov. I borrowed some binoculars, and got some pics through with my phone at the eye piece of the binos. If you facebook search for me can see some night shots of the lava and such, taken from Cold bay, AK when the clouds are cleared and the MT is visible. They are public pics on my facebook, I don't know if quality drops when upload to facebook, if you would like any of em emailed to you let me know! Just think its a awesome sight in the night horizon.
