Volcanic gas emissions can often be interpreted as signals from deep within the Earth. The study of volcanic gases increases our understanding of how magmatic systems behave, and in some cases it can be used as a predictive tool for eruptive activity and associated hazards. Not only are we concerned with the dangers of large eruptions, but if large volumes of gas are released, the gases themselves can pose a hazard to communities surrounding a volcano.The environmental impacts of volcanic gas emissions are observed on local scales, and the significant global contribution to the atmosphere is also an area of current interest, since it relates to global climate change. As we still have much to understand about volcanic eruptions and the environmental impacts of volcanic gas emissions, scientists benefit from working together to improve instrumentation and monitoring techniques.

Summary of Volcano Hazards at Tanaga Volcanic Cluster The Tanaga volcanic cluster lies on the northwest part of Tanaga Island, about 100 kilometers west of Adak, Alaska, and 2,025 kilometers southwest of Anchorage, Alaska. The cluster consists of three volcanoes-from west to east, they are Sajaka, Tanaga, and Takawangha. All three volcanoes have erupted in the last 1,000 years, producing lava flows and tephra (ash) deposits. A much less frequent, but potentially more hazardous phenomenon, is volcanic edifice collapse into the sea, which likely happens only on a timescale of every few thousands of years, at most. Parts of the volcanic bedrock near Takawangha have been altered by hydrothermal activity and are prone to slope failure, but such events only present a local hazard. Given the volcanic cluster's remote location, the primary hazard from the Tanaga volcanoes is airborne ash that could affect aircraft. In this report, we summarize the major volcanic hazards associated with the Tanaga volcanic cluster.

Abstract Among the 17,504 islands in Indonesia, there are a number of volcanic islands with active volcanoes amid human inhabitation. These conditions can be dangerous when the volcano erupts. This paper provides a review of eruptions on Indonesia’s volcanic islands, especially in potential hazard, fatalities, and management. There were 22 Indonesia’s volcanic islands with records of volcanic eruptions during the Holocene era. Seventy three percent of them are classified as active and have a high potential to endanger the surrounding population who generally live on small islands. More than 150,000 people have been evacuated in 25 volcanic unrest of 9 volcanic island during 1966 to 2017. The largest human fatalities from eruption on volcanic island was caused by volcanic tsunami. Since 416 to 2018 there were 19 volcanic tsunami events on Indonesia’s volcanic islands, resulting in 41,328 death tolls. With this review, we hope that our knowledge of volcanic eruption on Indonesia’s volcanic island can be improved and the community living around the volcanoes can be more prepared to face a volcanic crisis that can occur at any time.

Abstract Quantifying the frequency at which volcanic eruptions of different size occurs is important for hazard assessment. Volcanic records can be used to estimate the recurrence rate of large-magnitude eruptions (magnitude ≥4), but recording biases that impact data completeness complicate analysis. To overcome these biases, we conceptualize the volcanic record as a series of individual and unique time series associated by a common behavior. Thus, we approach issues of completeness on a volcano-by-volcano basis and use a hierarchical Bayesian approach to characterize the common frequency-magnitude (f-M) behavior for different groups of volcanoes. We identify variations in the f-M relationship between different volcano types and between different volcanic arcs. By accounting for systematic under-recording in the volcanic record, we also calculate the global recurrence rates for large-magnitude eruptions during the Holocene, which are similar to previous estimates. However, higher recurrence rates for smaller-magnitude events are observed, which is a result of our adjustments for data completeness. Quantifying how the f-M relationship varies between different groups of volcanoes provides an opportunity to understand how the tectonic setting influences f-M behavior, which is important to quantify long-term regional volcanic hazard.

Abstract. Indonesia is located on the Ring of Fire with the most geologically active than any other countries, which makes it vulnerable due to the massive earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Java Island has the most active volcano with high risks such as human risk and infrastructure from volcanic ash because of volcanic eruptions. The availability of the map of potential volcanic hazards is important to help mitigate the risk caused by volcanic eruptions. However, to the best of the author's knowledge, the distribution of volcanic ash has never been assessed in detail in the disaster-prone hazard map published by the Centre for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation (CVGHM), Indonesia. This research reported the potential distribution of volcanic ash due to volcanic eruptions in the future in Java island. Following the principles of Probabilistic Hazard Assessment and TephraProb software, the modeling of volcanic ash potential was performed using various parameters such as historical data, eruption source parameter, total grain-size distribution, tephra2 parameter, and the wind speed around the volcanoes as an input. The map shows the distribution of volcanic ash based on the volcanic ash accumulation (kg/m2) and the volcanic ash hazard map is classified into three classes. There are 19 models of volcanic ash distribution with various probabilities of exceedance based on 19 A-type volcanoes on Java Island. This volcano's distribution of volcanic ash tends to the southwest as the wind speed and direction.
