I talk earthquakes on this Friday’s Flotsam post, along with an estimate of how much Kilauea has erupted from the Haleuma`uma`u Crater since it started erupting last year.

Excavating the Minoan eruption on Santorini, images of Rabaul and a snippet of information about the new signs of life at Gorely in Kamchatka.
The WORLD’S DEADLIEST VOLCANOES! Alright, not really, but we all love the “World’s Blankiest Blanks”, now don’t we (to a fault)? Oh yeah, and the moon’s surface was once totally molten.
New activity in the Philippines and Kuril Islands, but things are calming down at a few former hotbeds in Kamchatka.
Take part in a poll about the new reader features starting up soon on ScienceBlogs.
Seismicity has increased at Kanlaon in the Philippines, PBS jumps on the Yellowstone gravytrain and we dabble in “manmade volcanoes”.
I chime in on some of the discussions about caldera-forming eruptions and inflation of volcanoes in the Andes. Also, news on the stimulus money to volcano monitoring and “our island blew up.”
The fourth in my ongoing “Volcano Profile” turns our attention to the southernmost (known) active volcano, Mt. Erebus in Antarctica.
Vote for the next volcano to be examined in my “Volcano Profile” series.
Volcanoes are making noise around the globe and you can read about it in this week’s SI/USGS Volcano Report.
Send me your questions, pictures or whatever volcanically-related news!
The latest volcano news from the USGS and Smithsonian.
A roundup of the latest volcanically-related NASA Earth Observatory images, including Rabaul, Shiveluch and a great panorama of the Canary Islands.
The continuing effects of eruptions past at two volcanoes and the best of volcano-inspired literature.
Mystery volcano in Kamchatka is disrupting flights to Asia and the local residents around Kelud in Indonesia refuse to heed the warnings of an imminent eruption. UPDATE: Erroneous news feeds got me … this is old news (but still illustrates an important point).
On second thought, living on an active volcano might be problematic.
The weekly Smithsonian / USGS Volcano Report brings us news from Indonesia, Philippines, Russia and more.
The servers and software behind the scenes here at ScienceBlogs will be getting upgraded tonight (7/21). After 7 PM (Eastern), commenting will be turned off (even though the comment form […]
Thermal images of the dome at Shiveluch, things quieting down at some volcanoes in Indonesia and the alert level is raised at Sakurajima – all this and more in this week’s GVP update.
Shiveluch continues its noisy summer, we hope to avoid unnecessary noise at Crater Lake National Park and former noise spotted on Mars.
After all the concern about the rockfall “snuffing out” the vent at Halema`uma`u Crater in Kilauea, lava is already bubbling and pooling in the vent.
A brief update on the monitoring of Mayon, more great pictures of volcanoes from space and the news that the Toba eruption might have caused a decade of volcanic winters (but didn’t try to kill all the humans).
The latest round-up of volcano news, including the potential spotting of a dome growing at Sarychev Peak, rumblings in El Salvador and small ash plumes at Anak Krakatau.
Its not every day that a new geyser appears out of the blue, but that is exactly what appears to have happens in Kamchatka, as the Prikolny (“Peculiar”) Geyser has appears near Uzon caldera.
Two volcanoes headed in opposite directions: the Alert level was raised at Mayon in the Philippines, while 24/7 staffing of the AVO operations center has ceased now that Redoubt seems to have quieted down.
Water and volcanism! Read what I have to say about this and other matters in my interview in ‘The Reef Tank’.
If the activity at Mayon continues to increase, over 75,000 people could be evacuated from the region near the volcano. As usual, there are also those who don’t want to believe the volcano is a threat.
Every once in a while, the Astronomy Picture of the Day throws in a volcano with all the space imagery. July 13’s image was one of the best. Plus, oil production will resume next month in the Cook Inlet, Alaska.
The weekly USGS/SI volcano report is out, with some eyewitness description of the recent eruption in Ethiopia, Shishaldin in the Aleutians going on Yellow Alert and two volcanoes in Guatemala making noise.
