KVERT had reduced the alert level of the volcano back to green on 23 Jan. Degassing and seismic activity had decreased significantly in December and remained at low levels since.
KVERT writes: "Activity of Gorely volcano decreased significantly on December, 2013. Volcanic tremor is not registering from December 12, 2013. A temperature of thermal anomaly decreased to minus from December 12-15, 2013. A thermal anomaly was not detecting over the volcano in January 2014. But weak seismic activity of Gorely volcano continues because it is the active volcano. Video data showed a weak or moderate gas-steam activity of the volcano."
