Stromboli (Eolian Islands, Italy) [7]: Activity has increased: a new lava overflow from the NE rim of the NE crater has started. Tremor and explosion signals are again quite strong, judging from the current seismic signal.
Etna (Sicily, Italy) [8]: Another short eruptive episode with intense strombolian activity occurred from Bocca Nuova last night.
Langila (New Britain, Papua New Guinea) [9]: Elevated SO2 emissions are visible on today's satellite data, indicating ongoing activity. Also Manam volcano [10] remains active and produced an increased SO2 plume.
Nevado del Ruiz (Colombia) [11]: A swarm of volcano-tectonic earthquakes occurred late on 7 Feb, suggesting a small magma intrusion, which also resulted in increased SO2 emissions visible on the last NOAA satellite data.
Seismic activity has since decreased again.
A smaller SO2 plume is also visible from Galeras volcano [12].
