SW, W, and SE.
jeudi, janv. 01, 1970
AVO increased the Volcanic Alert Level to Advisory and the Aviation
Color Code to Yellow for Augustine on 22 September due to an increase
in seismic activity below the summit over the previous week. During
22-25 September, the earthquakes were generally less than M 1 and were
located at shallow depths beneath the summit.

There have been observations of pyroclastic flows that traveled W of Arenal on September 18. Aslo ahs was produced and avalanches have been reported.
KVERT reported that seismic activity at Shiveluch was above background
levels during 7-14 September. During 6-9 September, avalanches
occurred and ash plumes rose to altitudes of 4-6.5 km (13,100-21,300
ft) a.s.l. Observations of video data indicated that ash plumes rose
to an altitude of 4.5 km (14,800 ft) a.s.l. on 7 September.
Gas-and-steam plumes were noted on 7, 10, and 11 September. A thermal
anomaly was present in the crater on satellite imagery during the
reporting period. The Level of Concern Color Code remained at Orange
 White vapor plumes rose from Rabaul caldera's Tavurvur cone from 10-18 September. On 16, 18, and 19 September, occasional ash plumes rose to an altitude of 0.9 km and drifted W or NW. Slight ashfall was reported in areas around.
jeudi, janv. 01, 1970
AVO reported that seismic activity at Pavlof declined markedly during
8-18 September, compared to levels recorded during the first week of
September. Seismicity was characterized by volcanic tremor, and
signals interpreted as small explosions. Based on observations of
satellite imagery, a steam plume rose to an altitude of 6.1 km (20,000
ft) a.s.l. on 12 September and multiple thermal anomalies were present
during 12-14 September. The Volcanic Alert Level remained at Watch and
the Aviation Color Code remained at Orange

Based on observations of satellite imagery, the Darwin VAAC reported
that ash plumes from Manam rose to an altitude of 3.7 km (12,000 ft)
a.s.l. on 17 September and drifted W.
HVO reported that during 12-18 September fissure segment D from
Kilauea's 21 July fissure eruption continued to feed an advancing 'a'a
lava flow that frequently overflowed its channel edges. Several of the
lava flows that branched from the main channel continued to advance,
widening the flow field. An 'a'a flow that developed within the
previous two weeks crusted over and pahoehoe breakouts issued from
near the flow front on 14 September. A few small earthquakes were
located beneath Halema'uma'u crater, the S flank, and the lower SW
rift zone during the reporting period.
Seismic activity at Karymsky was above background levels during 7-14
September. Based on seismic interpretation, ash plumes may have risen
to an altitude of 3.5 km (11,500 ft) a.s.l. during the reporting
period. Observations of satellite imagery revealed that ash plumes
drifted E and SE during 7-10 September and a thermal anomaly was
present in the crater during 8-10 and 11 September. The Level of
Concern Color Code remained at Orange
KVERT reported that explosions from Chikurachki produced ash plumes ...plus [lire toutes]

CVGHM reported that the Alert Status of Kelut was raised on 11 September from 1 to 2 (on a scale of 1-4). According to a news report, the water in the crater lake increased in temperature and changed color from the usual green to yellow. Villagers and tourists were advised not go within a 5 km radius of the active crater.

Based on observations of satellite imagery, the Darwin VAAC reported ...plus [lire toutes]

L'activité au volcan de Pavlov continue à la fluctuation des niveaux. À en juger par les données sismiques et des observations visuelles - souvent difficile en raison de la couverture nuageuse, - éboulements et des explosions de faibles fréquentes sont en place et une forte anomalie thermique continue à être visible dans la région du sommet sur les données du satellite, indiquant que le nouveau dôme de lave est encore en croissance.

Arenal volcano continues to be mildly active. Over the past weeks, activity at crater C consisted of gas emissions, sporadic Strombolian eruptions, lava flows traveling down the SW and S flanks, and occasional avalanches from lava-flow fronts. Blocks from the lava-flow fronts periodically reached vegetation and started small fires. Acid rain and small amounts of ejected pyroclastic material affected the NE and SE flanks. Eruptions produced ash plumes that rose about 2.2 km (7,100 ft) a.s.l. Pyroclastic cones on the NE and SW flanks continued to grow. Small avalanches of volcanic material traveled down several ravines. Crater D showed only fumarolic activity. ...plus [lire toutes]
We have now finished our planning for the new dates of the tours on Santorini and southern Italy in the first half of 2008. Further information is found on the individual tour pages. Have a look - we would be happy to welcome you on one of our new tours!

As more evidence about the large eruption at Lengai volcano on 4-5 Sep is pieced together, it appears that the eruption was probably a mainly explosive event while evidence of significant lava flows on the flanks becomes less. The observed "lava flows" could have been bush fires ignited by hot ejecta. In any case, there is little doubt that the observed ash cloud was the result of a significant explosive eruption and not just landslides on the steep flank.

It seems that the eruption at Lengai is indeed a major event and that explosive activity has taken or is taking place in addition to lava flows and probably, bush fires. According to local sources from the nearby Moivaro - Lake Natron Camp, Lengai first erupted at midnight and at 6 am on 4 September. A pilot reported ash rising to 20,000 ft (ca. 6 km). Ashfall was reported from Engaresero Village, but there are no reports on injuries or fatalities. The highly regarded Moivaro Tented Lodge near Lake Natron has been temporarily evacuated.

A large eruption seems to be taking place at Lengai volcano, this time for real: On 4 Sept., reports started coming in that a large (natrocarbonatite?) lava flow is descending the West flank. A considerable ash plume was visible on satellite data.

Cratère SE du Etna, le plus jeune et plus active de son sommet 4 de ces dernières années
samedi, sept. 01, 2007
Pavlov's eruption continues and it seems increasing. A strong eruption took place yesterday: at approximately 9:30 pm local time (AKDT) on August 31, National Weather Service observers in Cold Bay reported a substantial plume and associated lightning emanating from Pavlof Volcano reaching approximately 20,000 ft (6,000 m) above sea level.
If activity continues to increase in intensity, larger ash clouds that could affect higher-flying aircraft may be produced. The most immediate ground hazard in the vicinity of the volcano includes light ash fall on nearby communities.
