Summary

Abstract:
This report contains all of the available daily sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide emission rates from Cook Inlet volcanoes as determined by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) from March 1990 through July 1994. Airborne sulfur dioxide gas sampling of the Cook Inlet volcanoes (Redoubt, Spurr, Iliamna, and Augustine) began in 1986 when several measurements were carried out at Augustine volcano during the eruption of 1986. Systematic monitoring for sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide began in March 1990 at Redoubt volcano and continues to the present. Intermittent measurements at Augustine and Iliamna volcanoes began in 1990 and continues to the present. Intermittent measurements began at Spurr volcano in 1991, and were continued at more regular intervals from June, 1992 through the 1992 eruption at the Crater Peak vent to the present. Purpose: Airborne sulfur dioxide gas sampling of the Cook Inlet volcanoes (Redoubt, Spurr, Iliamna, and Augustine) began in 1986 when several measurements were carried out at Augustine volcano during the eruption of 1986. From March 1990 to October 1994, more than one hundred fixed-wing aircraft flights were made by the USGS in order to measure and characterize gas emissions from the Cook Inlet volcanoes. |
