Re: Iliamna Activity?

Hello Ashley - Iliamna has prominent, long-lived fumaroles that are sometimes mistaken for volcanic eruptions. Looking at the webcams yesterday, they appear to be the source of the white vapor plume. The vapor from the fumaroles can appear quite large, depending on atmospheric conditions, but fumarolic activity at Iliamna is normal and doesn't represent a change from background. An AVO seismologist double-checked the seismic data from Iliamna, and found nothing unusual. Most of our Iliamna seismic stations aren't working properly and need fieldwork. The ones that are working, but not displaying properly on the public website we will work on in the office. Thank you Cheryl Cameron -------- Ashley Smith wrote: Hi there, Ashley Smith with KSRM News, I was wondering if there is any activity with Iliamna today(Saturday, March 12). On the Kenai Peninsula here we can see what looks like quite a plume coming from it and it looks like the most recent webicorder activity on it only goes to Thursday evening. If there's anything going on with it, feel free to contact me on my cell phone at 398-8470. You can also email our whole news team at news(a)radiokenai.com.

Hello Jennifer - With every image in our database, you'll see a referenced "Credit line" and "Use restrictions" - the credit line is how the image should be credited within another use of the image, and the use restrictions will show if there are any restrictions to other people or groups using the image. Most of our images are taken by government employees and are thus public domain, and the use restriction reads "Please cite the photographer and the Alaska Volcano Observatory...." There is also a "full resolution" link with each image. Clicking this will give you the image at the largest resolution we have for that image. Thank you, Cheryl Cameron -------- Jennifer Atkins wrote: Hello, I am looking for a photo of a volcano as island for an intro geology textbook and I see some photos here on the website. I cannot figure out if these photos are public domain or not as they are credited to photographers. Can you tell me if there are any images that are in the public domain that would fit this decription that we could use? Or, can you help with contact information of the photographers to obtain permission? Thanks!

Hi David - Thanks for the correction - I've updated the link, but it will take a while to roll out on the public website. Thanks again, cheryl -------- David Lee wrote: On the main AVO page (http://avo.alaska.edu/), under the external links section, the link for Alaska Community Database Online is bad.

Hello Martin - Thanks for the note. I see that most cameras are working properly, but there is a leap day issue with Shishaldin and the Redoubt CI cameras. Thank you for pointing it out to us - we're working on a fix. The public website shows AK time as the site is heavily used by the general public, who don't convert easily between UTC and AK. Thanks, Cheryl Cameron -------- Martin Harrild wrote: Hi, I was looking at your webcams recently and noticed the date is incorrect. The system / cameras failed to account for the leap day that happen on February 29th and as such as 1 day ahead of what they should be. Also, why are all the times in AK time? They should be in UTC as using local time is not very scientific.
