Hello Ann-Kathrin, AVO does not have a formal internship program. You can apply to the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory's well-established volunteer program: http://hvo.wr.usgs.gov/volunteer/ We also highly recommend the International Volcanology Field School: https://www.uaf.edu/geology/academics/international-volcanology/ Best wishes on your studies! Cheryl Cameron -------- Ann-Kathrin Edrich wrote: Dear Sir or Madam, my name is Ann-Kathrin Edrich and I study geophysics at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany. I have an all-round education in physics, geology and geodesy. I have taken in-depth courses in volcanology and especially also in the hazard and risk assessment of volcanoes and measurement methods in physical volcanology. I have experience in working with MATLAB as well as with ArcMap and I have programming skills in C/C++. To put my knowledge into practice I would like to do an internship and I wanted to inquire if this is possible with the AVO?

Hello Frederic - We do not have these books in a digital format, but you can request an Interlibrary Loan from your local library, as I know the University of Alaska libraries have copies. This one is my favorite: Veniaminov, Ivan, 1840, Notes on the islands of the Unalaska district [translated from Russian by Lydia T. Black and R.H. Geoghegan in 1984]: Pierce, R. A., (ed.), Kingston, Ontario, Limestone Press, 511 p. Thank you, Cheryl Cameron -------- frederic feingold wrote: Please let me know if you have any of his notes in a downloadable format or an affordable re-issue NOTES ON THE ISLANDS OF THE UNALASHKA DISTRICT; AND, NOTES ON THE ATKHAN ALEUTS AND THE KOLOSH [TRANSLATED FROM RUSSIAN BY RICHARD HENRY GEOGHEGHAN] Thanks, Fred -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050

Re: Redoubt 3 Picture

Hello Stephen - I have looked at the archive index of all images taken by the Redoubt DFR camera (Redoubt-3) and am unable to find an image with date/time stamps that match the one listed in your email. At any rate, the camera took images of a dark night during that time range. During the day, the Redoubt-3 image shows a crack in the camera housing window. Thank you, Cheryl Cameron -------- Stephen Simler wrote: Please advise what the image is on redoubt 3 "last camera image received" October 17, 2016 12:03 AM. time stamp on image is 23:56:52 17Oct exposure 32800.

Re: RSAM question
by cheryl.cameron＠alaska.gov 17 Oct '16

Hello Petra - Yes, the basic automatic RSAM calculation includes telemetry errors, and things like wind noise. So we keep track of the weather, along with the seismicity. When seismologists carefully analyze seismic data, they do run calculations to reduce the effects of non-seismic signals. Sometimes the "noise" signal can be useful for tomography, though - see this page: https://www.nps.gov/articles/aps-v11-i1-c6.htm Thank you, Cheryl Cameron -------- Petra Watzka wrote: Hello team, I am trying to learn a little more every day about volcano monitoring, but RSAM is a bit hard to understand given the varying descriptions throughout the internet. My question is: if the computer reads the raw data to calculate RSAM, will it include any technical glitches too? I am just looking at Okmok (2016-10-16, after 6.00 a.m.), where OKSP shows something that looks to me like an instrumental issue as there is nothing on OKSO. But RSAM for OKSP shows a sharp increase at the time, which goes clean back down to base levels when the disturbance stops at the helicorder. So, if technical glitches are included in the RSAM calculations, it wouldn't make sense to calculate RSAM for any stations that are constantly disturbed by nearby electrical equipment or other continuous noise like ocean waves or nearby machinery? Or could such noise somehow be "calculated out" afterwards? Thank you for your time, and thank you for your work, achieving so much with so little (budget)!
