Hello Doug - Thank you for asking! Yes, if pilots report ash, please fill out the Volcanic Ash Report (VAR) form, found in appendix 2 here: http://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/ATPubs/AIM/aim.pdf (This form is also referenced here: http://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/atpubs/fss/fss0902.html ) I realize your shift is likely near-finished, but this information shouldn't go stale! The form says you should send it to the Global Volcanism People, but for Alaskan eruptions, I know we would appreciate a copy as well. Many thanks! -Cheryl Cameron -------- Doug Arens wrote: Hello AVO, I'm a radio operator for San Francisco Aeronatutical Radio, Inc.

Re: sound file for Chiginagak?

Hello Julie - I didn't record sound files for those volcano names without a well-established pronounciation. Some people say "ChigiNAgak" and some "CHIGinagak" but I've been unable to determine which is better/more authentic. Glad to hear someone looks for the sound files! -Cheryl -------- Julie Herrick wrote: Hi! I noticed there is no sound file for the pronunciation of Chiginagak - some colleagues and I have been debating how to say this one. Is that file on a different webpage, maybe? We looked here and didn't see a sound option: http://www.avo.alaska.edu/volcanoes/volcinfo.php?volcname=Chiginagak Mil gracias! ~Julie -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050

Re: Mt Redoubt Webcam
by cheryl.cameron＠alaska.gov 06 Feb '12

Hello Glennifer - The DFR camera looks like it has snow on the lens. This is a remote installation - we will have to wait for the snow to melt or fall off. The hut cam is battery powered and remote and is on power-saving measures until the solar panels can help out more. The Cook Inlet camera is once again pointed at Redoubt instead of the ocean, but it is an overcast wintery day in Alaska. Thank you for your interest, Cheryl Cameron -------- Glennifer Mosher wrote: Is there something wrong with the Mt Redoubt DFR camera? I like seeing the pictures but none of the 3 cameras appear to be focused on Mt Redoubt. -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050

Re: Iliamna Volcano

Hello Randy - Since the middle of January 2012 there have been a sequence of earthquakes with several greater than magnitude 2. It is common to have earthquake swarms in the vicinity of Iliamna and the ongoing activity is being closely monitored by AVO seismologists. Thank you for your interest, Cheryl -------- Randy Gilmour wrote: I've been following all the earthquake activity under Iliamna and I noticed that your website has the volcano alert activity alert as green. Is this normal for this volcano and an eruption is not imminent. Because it's looks a lot like the activity just before Mt.
