So MVP #13 was apparently way too easy, so here’s a bit more a challenge (I hope).
I’ll try to stump readers again with a new Mystery Volcano Photo during this slow week in the world of eruptions.
The three Italian volcanoes are showing of increased activity, while a recent study suggests that living near Etna could be linked with thyroid cancer.
Mayon appears to be ramping up activity – which could lead to the evacuation of 300,000 people from the neighboring region.
The activity at Mayon is prompting more evacuations, can we predict the behaviour of the lava lake at Kilauea, Batur goes on alert and Roland Emmerich (he is no volcanologist).
Are we going to cause the Campi Flegrei to erupt and destroy Naples? Depends on what you read.
New images of Kilauea from space, Soufriere Hills’ pyroclastic flows and lahars and things settling down at Anak Krakatau, all in this week’s USGS/SI volcano update.
Piton de la Fournaise put on a brief show last night, producing two lava flows after a small earthquake hit the volcano earlier in the day.
Science used to be fascinating to the general public … where did we go wrong and how do we fix it?
Either Eruptions readers are too smart or I’m too easy when it comes to the Mystery Volcano Photo … So I’m trying to up the ante. Give it a guess!
Dr. Jonathan Castro, coauthor of a recent Nature paper on the ascent of magma at Chaiten in Chile, fields questions from Eruptions readers.
The Philippines might be headed towards another volcano-typhoon doubleheader, roads are no match for Kilauea and some new images of Chaiten and Shiveluch from NASA.
The new volcano activity report from the Smithsonian/USGS has news of eruptions from Colombia, Russia, Mexico and Ecuador.
To kick off the second Eruptions Question & Answer feature, Dr. Boris Behncke of the Italian National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology takes your questions on the many volcanoes of Italy – send them in!
There are a lot of signs of an impending eruption at Nevado del Huila in Colombia and we are approaching the 24th anniversary of one of the worst volcano disasters of the 20th century.
Busy weekend in volcanoes, with Galeras heading towards a potential eruption, a new dome at Mayon, spectacular ocean entries in Hawai’i and images of Sakurajima’s ash plume.
We have tsunamis in the Mediterranean, mystery sulfur plumes, Taiwanese volcanoes and more in a round up of volcanoes in popular media.
Send me all the burning Italian volcano questions you have and maybe Dr. Boris Behncke will answer it!
Africa is breaking up! Alright, its not new news, but you’d think we had no idea if you read all the media lately.
There are quite a number of volcanoes looking like they might be ready to erupt, from Vanuatu to Alaska.
Some notes from the GSA 2009 meeting, including the size of Toba, the latest on the history of South Sister, the explosive life of central Oregon scoria cones and the kimberlites of New York.
The “vast Cascade magma chamber” rears its head again, this time in Nature Geoscience. UPDATED.
The latest SI/USGS Volcanic Activity Report, with news of volcanoes from around the globe.
The answer to the latest Mystery Volcano Photo was San Miguel in El Salvador.
The old crater rim, previously buried under snow and ice, was exposed this summer at Mt. Baker. Meanwhile, fumaroles at the summit of Mt. Baker are active as ever – see some videos of the activity!
The weekly USGS/SI Volcanic Activity Report along with images of the new activity at Soufriere Hills.
The signs of activity at Gaua in Vanuatu seem to be have been spot on, as officials from the island nation report that the volcano has indeed erupted.
