KVERT WEEKLY INFORMATION RELEASE 27-2020
Kamchatkan and Kuriles Volcanic Activity
July 02, 2020, 23:12 UTC (July 03, 2020, 11:12 KST)
KVERT monitor active volcanoes of Kamchatka and the Kurile Islands. Not all of these volcanoes had eruptions in historical time, however they are potentially active and therefore are of concern to aviation.

SHEVELUCH VOLCANO (CAVW #300270)
56.64 N, 161.32 E; Elevation 10768 ft (3283 m), the dome elevation ~8200 ft (2500 m)
Aviation Colour Code is ORANGE
The explosive-extrusive eruption of the volcano continues. Ash explosions up to 32,800-49,200 ft (10-15 km) a.s.l. could occur at any time. Ongoing activity could affect international and low-flying aircraft.
A growth of the lava dome continues, a strong fumarolic activity sometimes with some amount of ash, and an incandescence of the dome blocks and hot avalanches accompanie this process. Satellite data showed a thermal anomaly over the volcano all week; the plume of a re-suspended ash extended for 140 km to the east of the volcano on 28 June.

KLYUCHEVSKOY VOLCANO (CAVW #300260)
56.06 N, 160.64 E; Elevation 15580 ft (4750 m)
Aviation Colour Code is ORANGE
A moderate explosive-effusive eruption of the volcano continues. Ash explosions up to 19,700-23,000 ft (6-7 km) a.s.l. could occur at any time. Ongoing activity could affect low-flying aircraft.
A moderate explosive-effusive eruption of the volcano continues, the Strombolian and gas-steam activity sometimes with some amount of ash was observing all week. The lava flow continues to move along Apakhonchich chute on the southeastern volcanic flank, crashes of slag from the starboard side of the chute sometimes accompany its movement. Satellite data showed a large bright thermal anomaly in an area of the volcano all week.

54.05 N, 159.44 E; Elevation 4874 ft (1486 m)
Aviation Colour Code is ORANGE
A moderate gas-steam activity of the volcano continues. Ash explosions up to 16,400-23,000 ft (5-7 km) a.s.l. could occur at any time. Ongoing activity could affect low-flying aircraft.
A moderate gas-steam, and possibly the Strombolian activity of the volcano continues. According to satellite data, a bright thermal anomaly over the volcano was noting on 26-30 June; the volcano was obscured by clouds in the other days of week.

Aviation Colour Code is ORANGE
A moderate eruptive activity of the volcano continues. Ash explosions up to 19,700 ft (6 km) a.s.l. could occur at any time. Ongoing activity could affect low-flying aircraft and airport of Severo-Kurilsk.
A moderate explosive eruption of the volcano continues. According to visual data by volcanologists from Severo-Kurilsk, explosions sent ash up to 4 km a.s.l. all week; ash clouds drifted to the southern and eastern directions of the volcano. Satellite data showed a thermal anomaly over the volcano on 26-28 and 30 June.

Aviation Colour Code is YELLOW
A moderate gas-steam activity of the volcano continues. Ongoing activity could affect low-flying aircraft.
A moderate gas-steam activity of the volcano continues. Satellite data showed a weak thermal anomaly over the lava dome on 26-30 June; the volcano was obscured by clouds in the other days of week.

In Russia, KVERT, on behalf of the Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (IVS) FEB RAS, is responsible for providing information on volcanic activity to international air navigation services for the airspace users.
KVERT scientists are available in the office from 8:30 AM till 6:00 PM (KST) 7 days in week and by phone during the evenings since 2005. KVERT produces daily satellite monitoring (since 2002 till now) of Kamchatkan and Kuriles Volcanoes to using the information system (IS) “Remote monitoring of the activity of Kamchatka and Kuriles volcanoes (VolSatView)”, which was created in 2011-2014 the joint efforts of the scientists of KVERT IVS FEB RAS, the Space Research Institute RAS, the Computing Center FEB RAS and the Far Eastern Scientific Center Planet. IS continues to evolve. KVERT analyses information from remote scientific observation stations and seismic data for volcanoes: Alaid, Avachinsky, Bezymianny, Gorely, Karymsky, Kizimen, Klyuchevskoy, Koryaksky, Mutnovsky, Plosky Tolbachik, Sheveluch, Ushkovsky, Zhupanovsky (from the Kamchatkan Branch of Geophysical Survey RAS); and other information to monitor activity at Kamchatkan and Kuriles Volcanoes.

ЗЕЛЕНЫЙ Вулкан находится в нормальном – неэруптивном состоянии. или, после того, как перешел от более высокого уровня активности: Вулканическая активность считается прекратившейся, или вулкан вернулся к нормальному – неэруптивному состоянию. |
ЖЕЛТЫЙ Вулкан проявляет признаки повышения активности выше известного уровня фона. или, после того, как перешел от более высокого уровня активности: Вулканическая активность значительно снизилась, но тщательный мониторинг продолжается, потому что возможно возобновление ее роста. |
ОРАНЖЕВЫЙ Вулкан проявляет повышенную активность с высокой вероятностью извержения. или,
Извержение вулкана идет с отсутствием или незначительным выбросом пепла. |
КРАСНЫЙ Извержение, по прогнозам неизбежно со значительным выбросом пепла в атмосферу. или,
Извержение идет со значительным выбросом пепла в атмосферу. |
