Four volcanoes were erupting on Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula in early April 2010.

Several Kamchatkan Volcanoes, including Shiveluch, Kizimen, and one or both of Klyuchevskaya and Bezymianny show signs of activity.
The remote Russian peninsula was covered in snow and unobscured by clouds.

Ash from Zhupanovsky blew south over the Pacific Ocean in September 2014.
NASA’s Terra satellite captured four volcanoes erupting simultaneously, only 180 kilometers (110 miles) apart.
Ash plumes stream from Shiveluch and Bezymianny Volcanoes on Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula.
For the first time in nearly 250 years, the Kambalny Volcano ejected ash.
Karmsky, a volcano on the Kamchatka peninsula, regularly emits plumes of ash and volcanic gases.
Atmosphere Land Volcanoes Snow and Ice
Quiet winds on an early spring day allowed a plume of gas and ash to hover above Shiveluch Volcano.
Autumn provides a colorful backdrop for the erupting Sheveluch volcano in this remarkably cloud-free view of Kamchatka taken on October 16.
Most of Kamchatka’s volcanoes appear quiet in this snowy scene from December 2011.
