The latest Smithsonian Institution and United States Geological Survey Weekly Volcanic Activity Report has been published by the Global Volcanism Program, covering the week 14-20 March 2012. The report is compiled by Sally Kuhn Sennert. Among the highlights of this week:

  • A plume, probably water vapour, seen from Iliamna, where seismicity remained elevated
  • Seismicity decreased at Nevado del Ruiz but significant gas emissions continued
  • Etna continued lively with lava flows and fountaining, and strong ash emission
  • Daily explosions at Shiveluch produced plumes which reached 3-5 km altitude
