Activity of Mayon, Kerinci, Peteroa, Barren Island and La Fournaise.

The Phivolcs reports 6 volcanic earthquakes and 2 rock falls during the last 24 hours at Mayon.

Two of these earthquakes are related to episodes of phreatic eruptions of March 7 at 8:11 AM and March 8 at 6:27 AM, which generated gray ash plumes at a height of 500 and 300 meters, respectively. Moderate steam plumes were then emitted.

The alert level remains at 2 / moderate level of instability.

In Peteroa, in Chile, the cameras always show a constant degassing of gray color, marked by a plume at a height of less than 2,000 meters, indicating the presence of particles, moving mainly towards the southwest.

The seismicity of the last days is characterized by VT earthquakes, associated with the fracturing of rocks, and a large number of LP earthquakes, in relation with the dynamics of the internal fluids.

The superficial activity of Peteroa suggests that we are dealing with an open system. Alert level remains at Amarillo / change in behavior of volcanic activity.

The activity was intense last night, with a reverberation of the incandescence on the clouds, visible from the 4 webcams. The Mirova site lists a very high thermal anomaly on March 7th at 10:20 pm, of 3,281 MW.
