An ash plume, presumably from an explosion at the dome, rose to 19,800 ft (6.0 km) altitude yesterday, KVERT reported. Seismicity continues to be moderate, and strong steaming-degassing accompanies the process of the lava dome growth.

Current view of Shiveluch from the KVERT webcam, showing steam rising from the valley where pyroclastic flows normally are deposited when parts of the dome collapse
An eruption generated an ash plume that rose to estimated 20,000 ft (about 6 km) this morning, VAAC Tokyo reported. The event was probably caused by another partial dome collapse and/ or explosion at the growing lava dome.
Mi, 6. Mär 2013, 15:54
Several (3 or 4) relatively larg collapses of the lava dome occurred today between between 05:00 and 06:30 (GMT). The events triggered pyroclastic flows which traveled through the valley between the active dome and a relict flank of an older dome to the east. The largest flow reached about 4 km distance.

A viscous lava flow continues to effuse on the eastern flank of the lava dome. Strong and moderate fumarolic activity and incandescence of the dome summit and hot avalanches accompanies this process. (KVERT weekly update).
Mi, 27. Feb 2013, 06:00Based on visual observations and analyses of satellite data, KVERT reported that during 22 February-2 March a viscous lava flow effused on the E flank of Shiveluch's lava dome, accompanied by hot avalanches, incandescence, and fumarolic activity. Satellite imagery showed a daily thermal anomaly on the lava dome. Based on video images, KVERT reported that explosions produced a gas-and-ash plume that rose to an altitude of 9 km (29,500 ft) a.s.l. on 4 March, and an ash plume rose 4 km (13,100 ft) a.s.l. and drifted 20 km SE on 6 March.
