Mount Redoubt Volcano Escalates Alert to 'Code Orange'
Mitch Battros - Earth Changes Media
That didn't take long. -- New seismic activity at Mount Redoubt increased significantly Sunday and may be the prelude to an eruption, "perhaps within hours to days," the Alaska Volcano Observatory is reporting.
As presented in last year's three part article, there appears to be a connection between solar eclipse events and escalation in earthquakes and volcanoes. The science behind the cause is still suspect or hypothetical. Most studies do suggest a shift in magnetics in part related to the Earth's "dipole" as the culprit.
Earth's magnetic field (and the surface magnetic field) is approximately a magnetic dipole, with one pole near the North Pole and the other near the geographic South Pole. An imaginary line joining the magnetic poles would be inclined by approximately 11.3° (degrees) from the planet's axis of rotation. The cause of the field can be explained by dynamo theory.
Magnetic fields extend infinitely, though they are weaker further from their source. The Earth's magnetic field, which effectively extends several tens of thousands of kilometers into space, is called the magnetosphere.
Geologists monitoring Mount Redoubt volcano have upgraded the aviation color code for Redoubt from yellow to orange Sunday, indicating that an eruption may be imminent.
The volcano, which lies about 50 miles west of Kenai and 100 miles southwest of Anchorage last erupted over a four-month period, from 1989 to 1990.
