🚨 SHISHALDIN VOLCANO ALERT RAISED – AUGUST 25, 2025 🚨 The Alaska Volcano Observatory has raised Shishaldin’s alert level to ADVISORY (YELLOW) after a surge in seismic tremors, infrasound, and sulfur dioxide gas. Steaming from the summit has intensified. These are the same signals recorded before the 2023 eruption that disrupted international flights. Shishaldin erupts with little warning. Flight paths and communities near Unimak Island are now on alert. #Shishaldin #AlaskaVolcano #VolcanoAlert

🚨ALASKA RING OF FIRE: VOLCANO ALERTS AND EARTHQUAKES TOGETHER In the last 48 hours, the Alaska Volcano Observatory has kept Great Sitkin Volcano at WATCH / ORANGE, confirming that lava is still actively erupting inside the summit crater. This eruption has been going on since 2021, slowly filling the crater with new lava. Small local earthquakes continue to be recorded near the volcano, a sign that magma is still moving and the system is not done yet. Shishaldin Volcano is currently at ADVISORY

Volcanologists are closely monitoring Mount Spurr in Alaska as a series of small, shallow volcanic earthquakes continue beneath the volcano, indicating ongoing activity. Overflight video from Feb 7, 2025, shows small lake nestled in snowy crater. Follow USGS Volcanoes for the latest updates.

Today, we share an animated gif of the lava dome growing at Great Sitkin volcano in the Aleutian Islands, seen in a series of high-res satellite radar (SAR) images July 25-Aug 27, 2021. The dome grew from ~90 m to ~1000 m across and is continuing to grow. Great Sitkin is currently at Color Code ORANGE and Alert Level WATCH.

Enjoy this spectacular video of the summit crater of Mount Spurr, taken by AVO staff during fieldwork on February 7, 2025. The crater lake, which formed sometime between May and June 2024, is mostly covered in chunks of ice, with some turquoise water visible. The fumaroles (steam/gas vents) are the source of the white vapor plumes on the north shore. While the changes at Spurr summit over the past year have been notable, Crater Peak, the vent location of the 1953 and 1992 eruptions, remains comp

Alaska Volcano Observatory Information Statement March 12, 2025 #SPURR VOLCANO (VNUM 313040) Current Volcano Alert Level: ADVISORY Current Aviation Color Code: YELLOW Synopsis: Likelihood of eruption in the next few weeks or months has increased. Unrest continues with significant gas emissions measured on March 7 and 11. Summary: During overflights on March 7 and 11, AVO measured significantly elevated volcanic gas emissions from Mount Spurr volcano. Newly reactivated fumaroles (gas vents) were

AVO Information Statement Tuesday, July 29, 2025, 1:44 PM AKDT #Spurr (VNUM #313040) Current Volcano Alert Level: ADVISORY Current Aviation Color Code: YELLOW Summary • Monitoring data show that the shallow magma intrusion beneath Mount Spurr has stalled, but that magma deeper below the volcano may still be active. • The likelihood of an eruption is low but remains above background levels. We expect increases in seismic activity, gas emissions, surface deformation, and surface heating prior to a

Continuing our anniversary posts marking 3 years of lava extrusion at #GreatSitkin, here’s a video collected Sept 3, 2023 by M. Loewen, showing the lava-ice contact and panning over to the active vent area. Alaska Volcano Observatory geologists were able to visit and sample Great Sitkin volcano’s active lava flow in September 2023. Analyses of these lavas shows that the composition is a fairly typical basaltic andesite. usgsvolcanoes USGS Volcanoes uafgi UAF Geophysical Institute Alaska DGGS #al

Earthquakes, ground deformation, and melting of ice in the summit crater of Mount Spurr are some of the observations that have resulted in the volcano’s current elevated alert status. This animation shows the earthquakes detected by AVO in the proximity of Spurr volcano from December 1, 2024, to February 11, 2025. The earthquakes are presented in (a) a top-down view, (b) a N-S transect, and (c) a E-W transect cutting across Mount Spurr summit. Each earthquake, sized by their magnitude, first app

Mount #Spurr update: On Dec 18, an AVO crew conducted a gas and observation flight of Mount #Spurr to measure volcanic gases (H2O, SO2, CO2, H2S) and do a photo survey of the summit region and Crater Peak. The new gas measurements showed no significant changes from the last gas flight at Spurr in June. The lake, which formed earlier this year, has greatly increased in size since June, and is mostly covered in snow and ice with some floating yellow sulfur. Enjoy this video taken during the flight
