The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) has observed one-kilometer-high steam-laden plumes from Mayon Volcano, caused by the volcano’s continuous sulfur dioxide emissions. “Continuous moderate degassing from the summit crater produced steam-laden plumes that...
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) has recorded more pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) in Mayon in the last 24 hours as a result of the collapse of the volcano's lava dome and lava front. In a bulletin released on Friday, July 7, Phivolcs said the Mayon Volcano...
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) on Thursday, July 6 continued to observe pyroclastic density currents, rockfalls, and volcanic tremors from Mayon Volcano’s effusive eruption. Phivolcs recorded seven pyroclastic density currents (PDC) caused by a lava dome...
The increase in Mayon’s volcanic activity continues, manifested by a “repetitive pulse tremor” that has been occurring since July 3, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) said on Wednesday, July 5. Phivolcs said the pulse tremor that was detected at 3:47 p.m. on...
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) recorded a series of weak volcanic earthquakes in Mayon Volcano since July 3, which shows an “increased activity” in the restive volcano in Albay. “Since 3:47 p.m. (Philippine time) yesterday (July 3), the Mayon Volcano Network...
Lava flowing sluggishly from the erupting Mayon Volcano has advanced to a distance of 2.8 kilometers on the southern flank of the volcano as of Tuesday, July 4, said the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs). This was longer than the previous day’s 2.7-kilometer-long lava...
Mayon Volcano’s ongoing eruption led to another collapse of its lava front and longer pyroclastic flows that produced a light brown plume on Monday, July 3, said the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs). Phivolcs monitored two pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) caused by...
The lava flow from Mayon Volcano continued to cascade down its slopes at a “very slow” rate and has now reached a length of up to 2.7 kilometers as of Sunday, July 2, said the Philippine Institute and Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs). From 5 a.m. on Saturday, July 1, to 5 a.m. on Sunday,...
Filipinos may soon visit junta-ruled Myanmar after the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) decided to lower the alert level status it had imposed in the said country since May 2021, an official said. *Department of Foreign Affairs Undersecretary Eduardo de Vega (ANC/YouTube screenshot)* In an...
The generation of more pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) as a result of the collapse of a lava dome on Mayon Volcano, as well as the occurrence of more frequent volcanic earthquakes, characterized the “increased” eruptive activity at the restive volcano on Friday, June 30, said State...
Four dome collapse pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) from the lava dome of Mayon Volcano were recorded by the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) on Friday, June 30, indicating an increase in the activity of the restive volcano in Albay. In a bulletin issued at 8 p.m.,...
The “very slow” lava flow and sporadic lava dome collapse in Mayon Volcano have continued to result in rockfall occurrences and pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) in the past 24 hours, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) said in its bulletin on Friday, June 30....
