Explosions and eruptive activity increases at Vanuatu’s Ambae volcano
Posted on July 14, 2011 by The Extinction Protocol
July 14, 2011 – VANUATU – Vanuatu’s Ambae volcano has begun spewing volcanic gases, and residents could be forced to evacuate part of the island. An expert from the Vanuatu Geohazards Observatory has been sent to monitor the volcano, which has been known to trigger earthquakes. They have measured an increase in tremor activity in the area and are expecting more explosions. If the volcano does becomes more active, people living around it will be forced to evacuate. Volcanologist Sylvain Todman, from the Vanuatu Geohazards Observatory, told Pacific Beat they were watching the situation very closely. “At the moment we have sporadic explosions but the explosions are getting bigger and bigger every time,” he said. –Australia Network News
