LATEST KNOWN MAJOR VOLCANO ERUPTIONS:
VOLCANO ACTIVITY STATISTICS-
- STATISTIC TIMELINE-CHART -
> Original Volcano data/information sources in this reports:
"alert levels" in this report generally accord the the alert levels , as weekly issued by the :SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTE/ USGS- USA (global volcanism program)
see also: "The dynamic planet"- tectonic world map by USGS and Smithsonian institute with several features
Data on volcano status are regularly updated with data by the global volcanism program institutes. New Updates on the worldwide volcano activity are issued usually each Wednesday for the past week . Please note: Due to the data processings ar USGS and other institutes, this map can be updated once weekly. So far as possible I hope to have enough time to keep this page updated. If I should miss this mark, you can always obtain current volcano data at: USGS Global Volcanism Program
-----------------------------------
> Own extensions to this report:
With this site, I want generallyto create a timely overview on volcnanic activities over the year and not just a momentary report. Therefore, you will findin this report the following additional attributes:
about grey alert level ( grey colored table-cells) :
about: reports can only be updated once in a week- usually on Wednesday- as soon as the new weekly report of USGS/ Smithsonian inst. is issued.
-----------------------------------------------------
This table was started in October 2010
The following activity status report was made on basic of the latest global volcanism report (Smithsonian/USGS / period:- DECEMBER 21- 27- 2011

ABOUT MY WORLDWIDE VOLCANO MAP:
Are you looking for informations on volcanoes? On my exclusive volcano map you will find more than 500, resp. all known active volcanoes worldwide:
>1. find the country
> 2. find the volcano, your are searching in the country`s index as by an associated number on the map its geographic position! (note: the accuracy is determined by the maps resolution )
3. click on any of the volcano name labels in the Index to get directly connected to the specific volcano information on the website of the Smithsonian institute/ USGS ( world volcanism program), where you can find all additional data base informations on that particular volcano, as well as an automatic google search plugin by which Goggle Earth automatically finds and localises your volcano on Google Earth!
4. get directly connected to associated volcano webcams (so far as available, known or yet posted on the map) by a links symbol beside the volcano name label on my map
Note: The volcano map is designed for a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels. Any other resolutions will position at least the labels on different places . I want to create several modified maps in 2011. First of all: one which works with all screen resolutions- others with tectonic or topographic overlays.
Here I am working already on version 2.0: interactive volcano map version 2.0
site status:Nov- 07- 2010: 80% completed! Please be patient! I am working on that! Finally the map will contain all known active volcanoes worldwide (more than 500)with direct links to particular informations or volcano webcames. The map is currently processed. There are several hundred volcanoes to be mapped and this work will take some time to be completed )

About this page:
-VOLCANO WATCH-
- Statistical tables and charts on worldwide volcanoe activities-
About:
The Earth has more than 500 active volcanoes. some are under steady observation. Others just wake op after sometimes century of " sleeping ,and come into our conscience again if there any new activity can be felt or measured on the surface. There are many individual volcanoe surveys, but expecially Europe seems not to have a coordinated survey. Out of my own research, I expect the actuical rather intense worldwide volcanic activities probably to rise more in the next years ( 2011, 2012). Therefore, I want to create here a worldwide , easy understandable overwiew with special charts and tables which show then worldwide activity , shiftings and other changes within a timetable. Visitors of this site should have a one page an overwiew, which may help them planing their activities
Basically , this site will contain a statistical time- overview table on volcanoe activites over the year , that will be updated once a week, by which also developments can be better predicted. Allthough I won`t make any forecast based on that, this kind of display might be useful to see where currently is the most activity. Users may draw their own conclusions
I do have a new forecast method on test, by which volcanoe and earthquake activites can be predicted very precisely by date but not where they would occure. (for these forecast, visit: global weather center> SOLAR). For this purpose, this new timetable on this site might be helpful. I have begun this page in Oct 10- 2010. Due to the system of archiving, this site will also become with a while a good list of volcanoes and a good source for information on vulcanoes themselves , as some informations can be added such as links to general informations or webcames in the second column left ( "web")
Please note: This list of volcanoes will not be completed at once, but due to current activites. Please, be patient, if the list will not contain immidiately all volcanoes you are looking for. But it will become more complete with a while, due to new activities those occure. Also, I want to create a large map, on which all these volcanoes can easily be located.
