The elevated volcanic unrest continues at New Zealand’s Ruapehu volcano, with strong volcanic tremor and the Crater Lake (Te Wai ā-moe) temperature now stabilized at 37 °C (98.6 °F) for the past week. The Volcanic Alert Level remains at Level 2 and the Aviation Color Code at Yellow.
Seismic activity under the Ruang volcano in Indonesia’s North Sulawesi increased during the month of April, forcing authorities to raise the alert level to 2. The last eruption of this volcano took place in 2002 (VEI 4).
A high-level eruption started at Manam volcano, Papua New Guinea at 16:20 UTC on April 17, 2022.
New activity/unrest was reported for 5 volcanoes from April 6 to 12, 2022. During the same period, ongoing activity was reported for 20 volcanoes.
m of earthquakes has been detected in the vicinity of Mount Edgecumbe volcano, beginning at about 10:00 UTC on April 11, 2022. The cause of the swarm is currently unknown. A small number of earthquakes were also recorded in 2020 but this swarm is unusual in the number of events. The last eruption of this volcano was in 2220 BCE (± 100 years).
ls of volcanic unrest continue at New Zealand’s Ruapehu volcano. This is primarily manifested as strong volcanic tremor, slowly rising Crater Lake (Te Wai ā-moe) temperatures and high gas outputs. These changes indicate magma may now be driving the unrest, increasing the chances of further activity. The Volcanic Alert Level remains at Level 2.
A mud volcano erupted near Huang Yuan Sheng Tien temple in Wandan Township, Pingtung County, Taiwan around 06:00 local time on Friday, April 8, 2022. The eruption left large amounts of mud above ground that flowed into surrounding roads and fields. This is the second eruption of this mud volcano since October 2021.
A sudden explosive eruption took place at the northern part of Costa Rica’s Poas volcano at 08:42 UTC on April 6, 2022.
The seismovolcanic crisis at Manadas volcanic fissure system on the island of São Jorge, Azores, Portugal continues since March 19, 2022. A notable change was reported on April 6, when volcano-tectonic earthquakes were detected, suggesting the movement of magma at depth. The volcanic alert remains at Level 4 of 6. The last eruption of this volcano took place in 1808 (VEI 1).
The volcanic tremor at New Zealand’s Ruapehu volcano is now among the highest levels seen over the past 9 years. The Volcanic Alert Level remains at Level 2 and the Aviation Colour Code at Yellow. Over the past eight days, the temperature at Ruapehu’s Crater Lake (Te Wai ā-moe) has risen further from ~32 °C…
