Kamchatkan and Northern Kuriles Volcanic Activity
June 28, 2016, all time is UTC
SHEVELUCH VOLCANO (CAVW #300270)
56.64 N, 161.32 E; Elevation 10768 ft (3283 m), the dome elevation ~8200 ft (2500 m)
Aviation Color Code is ORANGE
A growth of the lava dome continues, fumarolic activity and incandescence of the dome summit and hot avalanches accompanies this process. Satellite data by KVERT showed a thermal anomaly over the lava dome.
KLYUCHEVSKOY VOLCANO (CAVW #300260)
56.06 N, 160.64 E; Elevation 15580 ft (4750 m)
Aviation Color Code is ORANGE
A moderate eruptive activity of the volcano continues. Probably, the lava flow continues to effusing on the south-eastern flank of the volcano (along Apakhonchich chute). Satellite data by KVERT showed a thermal anomaly over the lava dome: a gas-steam plume extended about 60 km to the south-west from the volcano.
ALAID VOLCANO (CAVW #290390)
50.86 N, 155.56 E; Elevation 7672 ft (2339 m)
Aviation Color Code is ORANGE
A weak activity of the volcano continues. Satellite data by KVERT showed a thermal anomaly over the volcano.
BEZYMIANNY VOLCANO (CAVW #300250)
55.97 N, 160.6 E; Elevation 9453 ft (2882 m)
Aviation Color Code is YELLOW
A fumarole activity of the volcano continues. Satellite data by KVERT showed the volcano was obscured by clouds.
KARYMSKY VOLCANO (CAVW #300130)
54.05 N, 159.44 E; Elevation 4874 ft (1486 m)
Aviation Color Code is YELLOW
A fumarole activity of the volcano continues. Satellite data by KVERT showed the volcano was obscured by clouds.
