Cleveland volcanostratovolcano 1730 m (5,676 ft)Alaska, 52.83°N / -169.94°W Cleveland volcano eruptions: 1893, 1897, 1929(?), 1932, 1938, 1944, 1951(?), 1953(?), 1975(?), 1984, 1985(?), 1986, 1987, 1989(?), 1994, 2001, 2006, 2008, 2010, 2011 Typical eruption style: Explosive Cleveland webcams / live data Eruption news from Cleveland volcano:Tuesday, May 08, 2012
Based on analyses of satellite images, AVO reported on 4 May that the small lava dome recently emplaced in Cleveland's summit crater had been destroyed late in the previous week, but the explosion was too small to be detected by distant infrasound and seismic networks. A small new dome was extruded following the explosion and was the fifth dome to be observed in this eruptive episode which began in July 2011. During 4-5 May two small explosions were detected. ...more [read all]

AVO reported that a small explosion from Cleveland was detected at 0112 on 4 April by distant seismic stations and infrasound arrays. Weather conditions prevented the detection of a possible eruption cloud in satellite images or by visual observation of the summit. Observations the next day revealed a thermal anomaly and that the 70-m-diameter lava dome had been destroyed by the explosion. This was the third lava dome that was erupted and subsequently destroyed by explosive events since the eruption began in July 2011. ...more [read all]

Cleveland Volcano (Aleutian Islands) is showing renewed activity, which was observed in satellite data, and AVO is raising the Aviation Color Code to Orange and the Alert Level to Watch. A new lava dome has been observed in the summit crater, and as of 30 January 2012 was approximately 40 meters (130 feet) in diameter. There have been no observations of ash emissions or explosive activity during this current lava eruption. ...more [read all]

The Alaska Volcano Observatory notes increased steaming activity from remote Cleveland volcano, one of the most active ones in the Aleutian chain. The volcano is currently not covered by a monitoring network, and has the potential of large explosive eruptions that could send ash to 10-20 km elevation. ...more [read all]

A new eruption seems to have started at Cleveland volcano on 21 July. AVO raised the Volcano Alert Level as there were reports from pilots and fishing boats in the area, observing a new ash eruption that had started at about noon that day. Pilots reported that an ash-and-steam plume rose to ...more [read all]

On 23 May, AVO reported that an astronaut aboard the International Space Station observed an ash plume from Cleveland at 1500. A plume was visible on satellite imagery at 1507 that drifted SW and reached a height of 6.1 km (20,000 ft) a.s.l. At 1700, an image showed the detached ash plume 130 km SW of Cleveland. The Concern Color Code was raised to Yellow. No precursory or current seismic information is available because Cleveland does not have a real-time seismic network. Wednesday, Feb 15, 2006
No new information about further eruptive activity or ash emissions at Cleveland Volcano since February 6 and no ash clouds have been detected in satellite imagery over the past week. [read all]Tuesday, Feb 07, 2006
The remote Cleveland volcano erupted on the morning of 6 February 2006 at 7:57AM AKST (1657 UTC). An ash clomn was detected by statellite, rising to approximately 7 km a.s.l. (22,000 ft) and extending about 80 miles (130 kilometers) ESE of the island. The explosion appears to be an isolated event, the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) reports. The concern code was originally raised to RED (highest level) and has now (7 Feb) again been lowered to YELLOW. ...more [read all] |
