Re: Spurr Crater Peak Camera

Hi Jake, Many of our remote instrumentation sites are in need of a site visit to repair. We hope to get the cameras up and running again as soon as we can get out to investigate. It's good to know you're out there - we'll keep you in our list of contacts for Spurr volcano. Thanks for the email, Janet -------- Jake Soplanda wrote: I'm a pilot for a ski lodge which operates in the Tordrillo Mts. Your Spurr camera has been super handy in the past for checking weather conditions before we fly. It seems the camera has been down for a few days, and I was just wondering if you have an idea of when it might come back on line. Also, I'm based out of Judd lake aprox. 20 miles north east of Spurr, with a super cub and a beaver, so if there's any flying in this area that you guys could use, let me know. Thanks. -Jake

In short, no, AVO doesn't have a volunteer/internship program. If you are seeking volcano experience anywhere - the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) has The premiere experience. HVO Volunteer webpage http://hvo.wr.usgs.gov/volunteer/ If you're after AVO or Alaska specific experience... AVO is a partnership between three public organizations. Opportunities working (including volunteering) with AVO would be specifically advertised under these three organizations. Opportunities with the USGS usually require U.S. citizenship. Employment with the State of Alaska often requires Alaska residency, and student opportunities with the University of Alaska Fairbanks typically require enrollment at UAF as a full-time student. If there are employment positions with AVO, you'd find them on the appropriate partner's HR webpage. A little awkward to continually check three sites, but it does work (see farther down this email.) If you're looking to flat-out volunteer with AVO in Alaska, requiring you to provide your own housing, food and transportation, you may consider emailing a resume to AVO staff whose interests resemble your own (keep in mind we're in Anchorage and Fairbanks). You can use the staff list on the AVO website or just start Googling "AVO" and some limited text describing your interest. Some AVO-affiliated student programs that are open to non-UAF students and are highly recommended are PIRE (Partnership in Volcanological Research and Education) and the UAF International Field Camp (with Alaskan and Russian courses): US-Russia-Japan Partnership (see the links at the top of the website) http://www.uaf.edu/geology/Research/research/volcanology.html PIRE http://www.gps.alaska.edu/PIRE/PIRE.html UAF G&G International Field Camp http://www.uaf.edu/geology/InternVolcanologySchool/2000index.htm Here's the list of AVO's member agencies, and their websites: Feds (AVO-S in Anchorage) 1. The USGS General USGS Employment http://www.usgs.gov/ohr/ USGS Alaska Science Center in Anchorage, AK (jobs are advertised in bottom of left-side navigation) http://alaska.usgs.gov/ USGS Volunteer http://www.usgs.gov/volunteer/ State of Alaska (AVO-N in Fairbanks) 2.

(AVO-N in Fairbanks) The University of Alaska Jobs (AVO assoc. portion is the University of Alaska Fairbanks Geophysical Institute - UAFGI)) https://www.uakjobs.com/applicants/jsp/shared/frameset/Frameset.jsp?time=11… UAF Geol. and Geophys. and the UAFGI also host internships during the summer and school year. You may contact the geology and geophysics department or the UAF Geophysical Institute (UAFGI) for info. UAFGI http://www.gi.alaska.edu/ UAF Geol. and Geophys. http://www.uaf.edu/geology/ Also, the recently developed "Volcanonet" group on Facebook has a section where members can post/look for opportunities. Its been quite a successful site, acquiring over 400 members and dozen of opportunities posted in about a week. -Janet -------- Hannah Drummond wrote: To Whom it May Concern: I am a sophomore at St. Lawrence University majoring in Geology.

Sometimes, there is an item floating near the shore closest to the camera that also has these "lights". What is causing the light? It's beautiful at night. Thanks for your time. I enjoy looking at the pics of the volcanoes. ---------------------------------------------------------------- REMOTE IP ADDRESS: 127.0.0.1 USER AGENT/BROWSER: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:19.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/19.0 REFERRING PAGE: http://www.avo.alaska.edu/contact.php

Yep, we're aware of it -- we've had some equipment failures in a couple locations. There's a couple folks working on fixing them/replacing them as necessary, hopefully they'll be up soon. Thanks! -Seth -------- Mr Glyn Jackson wrote: Hiya, you are probably aware that the latest image from any of the webcams is Thursday 21st February this year.
