Signs of an Impending Volcanic Eruption

If you have at least 3 seismometers, and they are strategically placed,

you can triangulate on earthquakes to see if they are occurring in a
place that indicates perhaps magma movement.
When magma moves up into the shallow plumbing of a volcano, it
takes up space and pushes the surrounding rock outward. This also
causes the surface of the volcano to deform. Some points move
upward and any two points will move farther apart. By using very
accurate leveling and distance-measuring techniques, these surface
changes can be measured.
If the area of active degassing gets larger, if the plants nearby die
suddenly, if the color of any lakes or ponds nearby changes...Many
volcanoes have summit lakes through which heat and gases rise to the
surface and escape.

Dos and Donts Before, After, and During the Volcanic Eruption.
DOS

DONTS

BEFORE
1. Prepare all
necessary things
to bring in case of
evacuation
2. Know which
areas are covered
by the danger
zones.
3. Store as much
food, water, light
sources and
batteries that are
very useful in
case of
emergency.
1. Dont panic
2. Dont wear
contacts.
3. Dont ignore
your breathing.
4. Dont stay too

AFTER
1. After removing
the ash, clean the
roof and gutter
with water to
prevent corrosion.
2. Wait for further
announcements
related to the
volcanic eruption.
3. Clean
everything around
and check all
damages incurred.

DURING
1. Stay Calm.
2. Cover your
nose and mouth
with mask or
clean cloth.
3. Close all
windows and
doors of the
house and your
car to prevent
ashes from
getting inside.

1. Touch the lava.

2. Do not attempt
to leave the place
unless told to do.
