Re: Questions about the Makushin Volcano
Hello, Jillian, Thank you for your interest in Makushin. Much of the information you are researching is available on our website, at the Makushin page: https://www.avo.alaska.edu/volcanoes/volcinfo.php?volcname=Makushin This page has descriptions, link to maps and images and several academic references. The State of Alaska also recently published a short hazard description sheet for the community of Unalaska that may be helpful, https://dggs.alaska.gov/webpubs/dggs/ic/text/ic086.pdf Best of luck! -AVO Hello, I am a college student from Illinois Valley Community College. I am writing a research paper about the Alaskan Volcanoes and I have a few questions about the Makushin Volcano. Why is the Makushin Volcano dangerous? How can an eruption from the Makushin Volcano severely impact the town of Unalaska? How does the AVO Monitor Makushin? Is Makushin due for another eruption? It would be great for me if someone could reply to me as soon as possible.
