Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Klyuchevskoy is one of the active volcanoes of the Kamchatka Peninsula. According to the Kamchatka Volcanic Eruption Response Team (KVERT), in October 2020 a moderate explosive-effusive eruption started on the summit of the volcano and the Aviation Colour Code (ACC) was raised from Yellow to Orange. The eruption is still ongoing in November 2020 and the ACC is maintained. This false colour image, composed using data acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 8 November 2020, shows the lava flow that continues to effuse on the southeast flank of the volcano. The Copernicus Sentinel-2 constellation (Sentinel-2A and Sentinel-2B) plays an important role in volcanic activity monitoring: the high spatial resolution and an average revisit time of five days allow them to monitor different volcanic processes and improve hot-spot detection techniques.
