=__ Galeras, Columbia __= By: John Kil Galeras, Columbia Location

GALERAS, COLUMBIA [|INGEOMINAS] reported that during 21-28 August seismicity at Galeras increased. Sulfur dioxide emissions fluctuated, but remained at low-to-moderate levels. Cameras around the volcano recorded emissions during 21-26 August; the emissions contained ash on 26 August. The Alert Level remained at III (Yellow; "changes in the behavior of volcanic activity"). Mr.Robinson My volcano is doing nothing almost all the time and it already been a month that it didn't do any work in my volcano and it is galeras and today the site didn't work well and it had an error on it. I think my volcano is already over and it won't do any activities so Can I choose another volcano that is really active every week because I won't get grade on it and my science grade will go down. ||

 * Apr,29,2013 || 10-16 April earthquakes at Galeras were located in various areas as far as 13 km from the crater, at depths no greater than 14 km and with maximum magnitudes of 2. Moderate levels of sulfur dioxide were detected; plumes drifted Nw. Cameras recorded ash emissions all week, especially on 9, 11, 12, and 14 April, when pulsating activity produced plumes that drifted W. Plumes rose no more than 1 km above the crater, ||

Galeras, a stratovolcano with a large breached caldera located immediately west of the city of Pasto, is one of Colombia's most frequently active volcanoes. The dominantly andesitic Galeras volcanic complex has been active for more than 1 million years.Major explosive eruptions since the mid Holocene have produced widespread tephra deposits and pyroclastic flows that swept all but the southern flanks.
