A small explosion occurred at Korovin volcano on Atka Island, Alaska, at 21:27 AKDT on October 29, 2025, prompting the Alaska Volcano Observatory to raise the Aviation Color Code and Alert Level to Yellow / Advisory.
Episode 13 of Kīlauea’s ongoing eruption at Halema’uma’u crater ended at 01:13 UTC on March 12, 2025, after 12 hours and 37 minutes of lava fountaining. Lava covered over 60% of the summit floor, and sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions peaked at 40 000 tonnes per day.
Episode 12 of the ongoing Halema’uma’u eruption began at 07:30 LT (17:30 UTC) on Tuesday, March 4, 2025, with sporadic lava flows from the north and south vents. Continuous fountaining reached heights of 150–165 m (490–540 feet) by 00:20 UTC on March 5 and is expected to increase further. The eruption is part of the ongoing activity that started on December 23, 2024. The USGS maintains the Volcano Alert Level at Watch and the Aviation Color Code at Orange.
Episode 9 of the ongoing Halemaʻumaʻu eruption began at 10:16 LT (20:16 UTC) on February 11, 2025, producing lava fountains up to 100 m (330 feet) high. The eruption is part of the activity that started on December 23, 2024. The USGS maintains the Volcano Alert Level at Watch and the Aviation Color Code at Orange.
The eruption at Kilauea volcano’s summit resumed at 09:15 LT (19:15 UTC) on January 15, 2025, with lava flowing from the 2 north vents at Halema’uma’u summit. It marks the fourth eruptive episode since December 23, 2024.
An underwater volcanic eruption is occurring at Ahyi Seamount, located about 18 km (11 miles) southeast of Farallon de Pajaros (Uracas) in the Northern Mariana Islands, part of the Mariana Volcanic Arc in the western Pacific Ocean.
Six earthquakes were detected at Mount Adams in September 2024, the highest monthly total since monitoring began in 1982.
A new volcanic eruption is taking place in a remote and closed area of Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park, west of Kilauea’s Nāpau Crater in the middle East Rift Zone.
A hydrothermal explosion occurred in Biscuit Basin, Yellowstone National Park at approximately 16:00 UTC on July 23, 2024.
Increased earthquake activity and ground deformation at Kīlauea’s upper East Rift Zone began at approximately 13:30 UTC (03:30 HST) on July 23, 2024, indicating likely magma movement in the subsurface. This activity has prompted Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park to close areas that could put visitors and staff at risk if the volcano erupts.
