Hi Colin, I'll forward your email on to the folks who usually install our webcams: John Paskievitch (jpaskie(a)usgs.gov) and Cyrus Read (cread(a)usgs.gov). They should be able to give some recommendations to you. Thanks! -Seth -------- Colin Milone wrote: Hi, I am a pilot and aviation manager for denali national park and we are hoping to provide a webcam at base camp, could you suggest a remote system that would work? thanks for your time, Colin -- Seth Snedigar Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys seth.snedigar(a)alaska.gov 907-451-5033 http://www.avo.alaska.edu/

Hi Debra -- steaming is normal for Redoubt. The lava dome is still cooling down, and the atmospheric conditions and clear weather this time of year allow lots of steaming to be seen. Thanks! -Seth -------- Debra Bearden wrote: As of March 24th 2012..mountain seems to be steaming from main vent..shouldn't advisory be changed to yellow..also have noticed some earthquakes in that area in the last few days..?? -- Seth Snedigar Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys seth.snedigar(a)alaska.gov 907-451-5033 http://www.avo.alaska.edu/

Hi Marli -- you are correct. We had the crew rotate the camera a little bit when they were last on the rig so it showed both Iliamna and Redoubt. I think it can be zoomed in, and if activity at Iliamna picks up, we'll probably try to zoom it in for a closer look. Thanks! -Seth -------- Marli Holden wrote: The new webcam on Redoubt, the one from the oil derreck, shows another mountain to the south. Am I correct in seeing that mountain as Iliamna?

[Public Email] webicorders...

--------------------------------------------------------------- The following message was sent to you via AVO Web Email System: --------------------------------------------------------------- Name: James Email Address: froglips(a)gci.net Subject: webicorders... Message: I am beginning to see an inordinate and a rash amount of unusual occurrences with your seismic webicorders across the board. I'm also seeing them going offline, or having signal interference problems, or telemetry issues. This is no coincidence. These problems are coming from the earth itself, and not from an outside source as you believe. The earth is quite capable of producing radio signals and generating electrical signals that can wreak havoc on electronic equipment if the signal is close enough and strong enough. Just because there isn't any transmitter to produce the radio signals, does not mean they cannot occur naturally. Also, huge amounts of electricity are being produced and billions of volts of electricity are generated from the earth all over the world every single day. It's done by the rotation of the earth, coupled with the rotation of the earth's core. All the metals and crystals are dragged through the electrical field created by the earth's magnetic energy thereby producing electricity. Lightening storms don't occur in the clouds as is commonly believed. The clouds and ice crystals high in the clouds are only a catalyst for the electronic energy of the earth that produces electricity. Crushing cryst Find some outside source and a way of tracking the radio frequency signals that are causing your problems. Find a way to triangulate the source of the signals and you will see what I mean. It's possible with some of the old radio technology to pick up some of the signals. It's not very likely you'll find the problem using today's modern technology because it's too filtered and controlled. The old radios used a basic transmitter and receiver to do the job. An old radio antenna and receiver might be able to filter out the signals manually by using the tuner and squelch modulators on them. I've been telling you that something big is going to happen and soon. These issues with your electronics support my theory. Why else can't you find the source of your problems, and why are they cropping up unexpectedly and without warning? Take another look at the wave gaps in the recordings. Take a good hard look at the unusual spikes that you're seeing on your recorders that you are deeming to be "radio interference." Make some transparencies of all of the pages from each recorder and start doing overlays. Take 2, one with the huge gaps, and one with the spiky interference and lay them on top of one another. Now, take the top layer and start sliding them up and down and see what happens. do the spikes and gaps line up? Notice how that when they do, the correlate at different times. Take 2 of the spiked readings from 2 different stations and do the same. Do you see a resemblance in the patterns? Do they line up at different times? This indicates that the effect is traveling from one place to the other, hence the differences in the time period. The reason you can't find it is because it's occurring deep beneath the earth... try resolving some of your telemetry problems by reducing the sensitivity of the recorder's receiver. If that doesn't work, your fieldworkers might need to go out and reset the sensor/transmitter that picks up the movement on sight because they probably were overloaded by the powerful signal generated beneath the spot where the sensor was placed. When resetting the sensors, have them adjusted to a less sensitive signal. If you have the equipment or funds, have another seismic sensor placed nearby at the optimal sensitivity you use for accurate readings. With the use of 2 sensors in close proximity and using different sensitivity settings, you should start to get better readings. The second sensor should be placed no more than 50 yards from the first. The 2 sensors in close proximity can be used in tandem to get side by side readings of what's occurring below ground. Of course, I'm still an outsider, so if you choose to disregard this, that's entirely your choice. In any case, best of luck resolving your recorder problems and telemetry issues.

Hi Mark, there aren't any other seismograms around Wrangell. Hopefully we'll be able to get them back online this summer. It's pretty normal to see steam plumes from Wrangell, especially this time of year. Having lived in Glennallen for a while, I've seen these quite a few times myself. Thanks! -Seth -------- Mark Howe wrote: Ok, so no webcorder or cameras for Wrangell but seeing steam plumes off the SW area. Any word on other activity or a link to any other seismographs around to look at? What does Danny at WRST have to say on this? Drum or Blackburn showing anything?
