Alaska Volcano Observatory

January 12, 2006 | Science | By: Mark VandeWettering

In keeping with my recent reading on volcanos, here is a link to the Alaska Volcano Observatory which is observing the increasingly active volcano on Augustine Island in Alaska. Recently earthquake activity has significantly increased, and some kind of eruption seems imminent. They even have a pair of webcams. The streaks running down the snowcapped mountains are apparently mudflows, not lava.  Cool!
