Figures 27 and 28 show Kamchatka and Karymsky in the context of both geography and representative aviation flight paths. Granyia – 55 points Lopez and others (2012) used "coincident measurements of infrasound, SO2, ash, and thermal radiation collected over a ten day period at Karymsky Volcano in August 2011 to characterize the observed activity and elucidate vent processes. Ash eruptions from Karymski can come in the way of aircraft flight routes across the N Pacific. In late March 2006, the USGS placed Karymsky at alert code orange, the second-highest level of concern. Report on Karymsky (Russia) In: Sennert SK, editor.

The caldera cuts the south side of the Pleistocene Dvor volcano and is located outside the north margin of the large mid-Pleistocene Polovinka caldera, which contains the smaller Akademia Nauk and Odnoboky calderas. September 2010-December 2012 activity. Ash plumes might reach up to 6 km (or 19,700 ft.) a.s.l.
Karymsky, the most active volcano of Kamchatka's eastern volcanic zone in one of the world's volcanoes with persistent activity and has been erupting for at least about 500 years. Being that I am a self-identifying nerd, I feel it is my duty to inspire others to become as passionate about volcanoes as I am...or else annoy them into submission. Volcanohead – 2.5 points More than 200 flights per day occurred over the North Pacific region at the end of 2007 (Neal and others, 2007). According to Girina and others (2013), Karymsky has been in a state of explosive eruption since 1996. https://doi.org/10.5479/si.GVP.BGVN201310-300130. Satellite image of Karymsky volcano on 25 Sep 2020, Karymsky volcano (Kamchatka): continuing ash emissions, Karymsky Volcano Volcanic Ash Advisory: VA AT 20200729/2255Z FL100 EXTD SE MOV 15KT REPORTED. Occasionally, pilots and volcanologists observe the volcano visually; however, the volcano is frequently shrouded by clouds. Thanks for playing, and come back Monday for new adventure at a new volcano. ... Karymsky, the most active volcano of Kamchatka's eastern volcanic zone, is a symmetrical stratovolcano constructed within a 5-km-wide caldera that formed during the early Holocene. ->More on Karymsky, Strong strombolian activity at Karymsky volcano continues with no significant change over the past weeks. Natural Hazards, 51(2), p. 245-262, Neal, C, Girina, O, Senyukov, S, Rybin, A, Osiensky, J, Hall, T, Nelson, K, and Izbekov, P, 2007, Eruption Warning Systems for Aviation in Russia: A 2007 Status Report, World Meteorological Organization (WMO), in close collaboration with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the Civil Aviation Authority Of New Zealand, paper at the Fourth International Workshop On Volcanic Ash, Rotorua, New Zealand, 26-30 March 2007 [VAWS/4 WP/03-01] (URL: http://www.caem.wmo.int/moodle/file.php?file=/1/VWS/6_VAWS4WP0301_1_.pdf). According to the Tokyo VAAC, an ash plume rose to an altitude of 7.3 km and drifted N on 13 March 2011, and to an altitude of 5.5-11.9 km and drifted SW on 18 April 2011; the Tokyo VAAC reported several other ash plumes during the reporting period, but the two mentioned here represent the maximum plumes heights recorded during the reporting period. Explosive activity apparently weakened slightly during April and May 2012, with plume altitudes decreasing to 1.8-2.5 km, and apparently weakened further between mid-July and mid-August 2012, when KVERT did not report any ash plumes. Kelly Brickner – 11 points Managing Editor: Richard Wunderman. Simultaneous eruptions of Karymsky (right) and Akademia Nauk (left) volcanoes, 2 January 1996. Karymsky is the most active volcano of Kamchatka's eastern volcanic zone and a perfect symmetrical stratovolcano. Leslie – 9 points From mid-August through the end of 2013, activity was moderate.

Most seismicity preceding Karymsky eruptions originated beneath Akademia Nauk caldera, which is located immediately south of Karymsky volcano. I just wanted a few days of good old-fashioned volcano-ogling fun with no entangling web of volcano-drama. A strong thermal anomaly over the volcanic crater was detected.
