Another Kanlaon eruption possible — Phivolcs

(UPDATE) KANLAON Volcano registered its highest sulfur dioxide emission on Saturday at 4,397 tons, prompting officials to maintain Alert Level 2, which means that there is unrest driven by shallow magmatic processes that could lead to explosive eruptions.

'This is the highest emission this year measured by campaign survey and the second highest land-based measurement for Kanlaon,' Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) Director Teresito Bacolcol said.
