I enjoy watching the coverage. I enjoy the scenery, the different seasons, the sunrises and sunsets. If the weather is nice you can see what i assume is the volcano in the background. I also have a question: are people/families living in the houses you can spot when looking at the webcam? I hope the camera keeps sending! Im sure the work you are doing there is remarkably interesting. All the best wishes form germany and hoping for a reply, Heike Repplinger ---------------------------------------------------------------- REMOTE IP ADDRESS: 127.0.0.1 USER AGENT/BROWSER: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_7_5) AppleWebKit/537.73.11 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.1.1 Safari/537.73.11 REFERRING PAGE: http://www.avo.alaska.edu/contact.php

Hello Emily - I'm cc'ing Gari Mayberry - she's the USGS representative for USAID, and is involved in VDAP activities. I hope Gari can direct you to the best persons/agencies for information. Gari - nice to hear your voice last week. Thank you! Thanks, Cheryl -------- Ermily Niebuhr wrote: To whom it may concern: I used to be a meteorologist in Alaska and now work for the World Food Programme. Right now we have concerns about the volcano Nyiragongo and Nyamuragira in the Democratic Republic of Congo. When I lived in Anchorage I visited the AVO and was quite impressed by your work and I was wondering if you know any researchers or organizations who are closely monitoring the volcano and may be able to provide us with updated information on any associated risks. Thank you again for your help and I hope all is going well!

Re: Mt. Spur

Hello Michael - Thank you for the eyewitness report. Our records show no anomalous seismic activity at Mt Spurr, so the contrail-like feature was likely not volcanic in origin. Thank you, Cheryl -------- Michael Williams wrote: At approximately 5:15 p.m.AST, Jan 25, 2014 I observed a cloud bank over Mt. Spur with a pencil thin cloud projecting vertically above the cloud bank (like a contrail of a missile)rising approximately 15000+ feet. There was blue sky above it and over a time frame of approximately 20 minutes the pencil thin (vertical contrail) expanded and eventually dissipated. My location is approximately 60 miles nw of Mt. Spur on Trail Lake. Mt. Spur itself was not visible due to the low cloud bank. I assume it was Mt. Spur as there is no other logical reason for such an event in that area to my knowledge. -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050

Hello Sharmaine - The UAF Geophysical Institute does not offer tours during the winter months (although they have a pretty good summer tour!) We have a lot of great information he can download: https://www.avo.alaska.edu/downloads/classresults.php?pregen=fs , http://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/99/ And I would also be happy to answer questions specific to Alaskan volcanism by email. Thank you Cheryl -------- SHARMAINE LOMAX wrote: My 8 year old son is obsessed with volcanos and becoming a volcanoligist.

Hello David - That paper is under copyright restrictions and we are not able to offer a downloadable copy - we only have a thumbnail image. Your local library can probably get a copy for you. (they hopefully subscribe to BSSA in print or digital form). Thanks, cheryl -------- David Mercier wrote: To whom it may concern, Hello. I am trying to download a reference from your website.
