Dense ash column from a vigorous explosion at Sangay volcano in the early November (image: Volcán Sangay)
The effusive-explosive eruption of the volcano continues.
Lava flows continue to be active on the SE flank.
Near-frequent vulcanian eruptions continue to generate ash columns sending pyroclastic material to approx. 6,7 km (22,000 ft), even today up to 7 km (23,000 ft) height. Most of the ejected hot, juvenile and glowing material slid down along the southeastern flank in the form of incandescent avalanches.
Satellite-based measurements of SO2 concentrations were detected in plumes of about 309 tonnes on 20 November.
