Volcanoes Today- Sept 3 2013

Kizimen (Kamchatka) [2]: No significant changes have occurred. The lava dome at the summit continues to grow and produce occasional small to moderate glowing avalanches. KVERT reports moderate seismic activity.

Shiveluch (Kamchatka) [3]: Activity has calmed down, but the lava dome remains active and continues to produce occasional small ash emissions such as this morning:

Batu Tara (Sunda Islands, Indonesia) [4]: Strombolian to vulcanian-type explosions continue. An ash plume was spotted on satellite data this morning reaching 7,000 ft (2.1 km) altitude.

Dukono (Halmahera) [5]: A relatively strong explosion occurred this morning, producing an ash plume that rose to 10,000 ft (3 km) altitude, VAAC Darwin reported.

Veniaminof (Alaska Peninsula, USA) [6]: Eruptive activity remains elevated. Strong continuous tremor suggests ongoing lava fountaining associated with lava flows and ash emissions. A plume of ash was reported to drift eastward at an altitude of 15,000 ft (4.5 km).
