Anatahan Volcano Update
Anatahan Volcano Update for April 5-6, 2004
Submitted Tuesday, April 6, 2004 at 0400 local Anatahan time
The seismic swarm that began beneath
Anatahan Island on March 31 has continued to intensify slowly. From the
nature of the seismic signals, we believe that small steam and (or) ash
emissions are occasionally taking place to altitudes well below 3,000 ft
(1,000 m). Contact persons:
