ANCHORAGE, Alaska - The Alaska Volcano Observatory plans to improve its monitoring system this year after the coronavirus pandemic delayed the changes last year.
The observatory hopes to finish required work to convert its volcanic monitoring stations from older analog technology to modernized digital sensors and telemetry, KTUU-TV reported Tuesday.
âWeâre in the middle of a very ambitious conversion,â observatory geophysicist John Power said.
The volcano observatory, founded in 1988, is a joint program of the U.S. Geological Survey, the Geophysical Institute of the University of Alaska Fairbanks and the State of Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys.
