Fernandina (Galápagos Islands, Ecuador): (5 Mar) The effusive eruption at the volcano continues.
Several lava flow arms, oozing from the flank fissure, continue to be active on the south-southeastern slope of the volcano. Lava hasn’t made it to the ocean yet, and it is still uncertain whether it’ll eventually reach the sea. Otherwise, when lava interacts with water, it does so explosively, forming abundant steam-gas emissions.

Villarrica (Central Chile): (5 Mar) The explosive eruption at the volcano continues at moderate levels.
Continuous bright emissions of steam and gas are emitted from the summit vent associated with minor strombolian-style explosions generating glowing lava bombs thrown within the crater area. The vivid summit lava-filled pond remains active, hinting the continuous delicate equilibrium between heat and magma supply and loss (through cooling and mild emissions during degassing).
The Volcanic Alert Level remains at Orange with 500-meter exclusion zone around the main crater in place.
