Volcano Update from Archive

Report prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey.

A small gas plume from Pagan Volcano has been observed in several MODIS satellite images this week. Minor steam and gas plumes from Pagan have been observed often in the past and do not necessarily indicate that eruptive activity will occur soon.

Pagan is not monitored with ground-based geophysical instrumentation and the only source of information is satellite observation and occasional reports from observers who visit the island. Since we are unable to conclusively assess the level of activity, the alert level remains Unassigned.

Pagan volcano is located 173 nautical miles north of Saipan.
The island contains two stratovolcanoes connected by a narrow isthmus.
