Roundup of Global Volcanic Activity

Kliuchevskoi (Kamchatka): The volcano entered a new phase of activity which is taking place in the summit crater. On 29 December, Tokyo VAAC reported that fresh ashes were observed on the slopes of Klyuchevskoy. KVERT now changed the status level from green to yellow, as additional signs of volcanic activity have been gathered recently. Increased seismic activity has been noted since 19 Dec. A small plume could be detected from Klyuchevskoy volcano on satellite imagery from 2 January. A thermal anomaly is visible on satellite data as well, and last, but not least, during clear weather, glow can be seen from the summit at night.
