Hello Lorraine - The steam plume from Redoubt (and another at Spurr) were very noticeable yesterday. Certainly atmospheric conditions did enhance its appearance. Our seismologists and satellite scientists don't see anything to indicate impending eruption at either volcano. Thank you, Cheryl -------- Lorraine Krueger wrote: I have noticed a steam plume coming out of Mt. Redoubt today. Is that just due to the cold air mass overhead? Thanks! -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050

Re: Inquiry in an intership

Hello Tobias - AVO does not have a formal internship program, although the Hawaii Volcano Observatory does have such a program. We do occasionally have volunteers who pay all of their own expenses and donate their time to the Observatory. If you were interested in doing that, you should examine our staff page (https://www.avo.alaska.edu/about/staff.php ) and reach out directly to someone working on projects that interest you. Typically these volunteers are geology or geophysics undergraduate students at University of Alaska Anchorage or Alaska Pacific University. AVO does have offices in Anchorage and Fairbanks, but most AVO personnel are in Anchorage. Safety considerations make it difficult for volunteers to do field work, although there are many in-office projects. Best wishes on your studies, Cheryl -------- Tobias Kern wrote: Dear Madam or Sir, in May this year I graduate from my German high-school. My main subjects are geography and physics. After that I would like to study geology or geophysics. As I have agreat interest in volcanology I would like to do an intership abroad in the field of volcanology to gain experience in the work of volcanologists and, as far as possible, do some work there of my self. Starting July of this year I do have a time span of approximately nine months for this intership, because I have to apply for university afterwards. Therefore I would like to inquire wether such a work placement would be possible with you in the given period of time and if yes under which conditions. I am aware of that an internship like this will cause costs. I would be supported by my parents. I am looking forward to your response.

Hi Andres - Right now we cannot offer a tour of the Anchorage facility. Hopefully this would be possible later in the year - please write back this summer if you are still interested. Thank you, Cheryl -------- Andres Macias wrote: Hello, I am with the Chugach Gem and Mineral Society and would like to schedule a tour of your facility.

Re: Cleveland volcano cam?
by cheryl.cameron＠alaska.gov 20 Jan '15

Hello Peat - The new CLCO webcam is a remote installation, and that camera as well as a seismometer are powered by batteries and solar power. Right now, solar power to the site is low, and we are prioritizing seismic data over the webcam. Seismic data is currently coming in nicely, and is valuable for eruption forecasting and detection. As you know, getting to the site is expensive. We hope to be back at Cleveland this summer through our partnership with the NSF-funded Islands of Four Mountains project. Thank you, Cheryl -------- Peat Galaktionoff wrote: when will the camera on Cleveland be fixed ? or...can we say that last summers work was just a waste of taxpayers money. People in the Aleutian Islands want to know A.S.A.P.

Hi Mark - AVO is composed of three agencies - the USGS, the University of Alaska Fairbanks Geophysical Institute, and the State of Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys. If there's an open position at AVO, it would be advertised on the appropriate partner's HR website. I don't currently know of any open positions, although that might change in the near future. Thanks, Cheryl -------- Mark Greathouse wrote: I wish to get involved with the work done by the Alaska Volcano Observatory. I've got a BS in Geological Engineering from Colorado School of Mines, as well as experience working as a field engineer intern based out of Anchorage, AK. During this time, I worked with UNAVCO to maintain a network of GPS stations used to analyze tectonic movement. I've traveled to several volcanoes in Alaska, including Augustine, Slope Mountain, and Iliamna. I'm interested in playing an active role in the Alaska Volcano Observatory; how do you suggest that I go about acquiring a position? -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050
