  Kliuchevskoi Volcano, Russia
This is an image of the area of Kliuchevskoi volcano, Kamchatka, Russia, which began to erupt on September 30, 1994.
Kliuchevskoi is the blue triangular peak in the center of the image, towards the left edge of the bright red area that delineates bare snow cover.
The image was acquired by the Spaceborne Imaging Radar-C/X-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SIR-C/X-SAR) aboard the space shuttle Endeavour on its 88th orbit on October 5, 1994.

An increase in volcanic tremor at Kliuchevskoi led KVERT to raise the Concern Color Code from Green ("volcano is in quiet, "dormant" state") to Yellow ("volcano is restless") on 31 May. During most of the report week (24-31 May) seismicity was near background levels.
Seismicity at Kliuchevskoi was above background levels during 20-27 February, with ~160 M 1.25-1.75 earthquakes and 12 M 1.25-2.25 earthquakes occurring at depths of 3-7 km beneath the volcano.
The amplitude of volcanic tremor at the volcano increased.

 ESA - Observing the Earth - Earth from Space: Kliuchevskoi volcano, Russia
Kliuchevskoi is a basaltic stratovolcano that has undergone more than 80 recorded eruptions since 1697.
In October 1994 a giant eruption took place and a column of ash rose up 15-20 kilometres into the air, at the same time as lava rolled down its flanks.
The vicinity of Kliuchevskoi is largely uninhabited, but its eruptions do present danger to air traffic, with international routes extending over the Kamchatka Peninsula.

Kliuchevskoi’s snow capped peak reaches an altitude of about 4,835 meters ending in a summit crater that stretches about 700 meters across.
Since 1697, Kliuchevskoi has erupted more than 80 recorded times with one giant eruption occurring in October 1994, bellowing a column of ash up to 20 kilometers skyward while lava poured down its sides.
While the region around the volcano is predominantly uninhabited, recent eruptions to present a potential danger to air traffic since international routes extend over the Kamchatka Peninsula.

 Kliuchevskoi, Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia
Kliuchevskoi is Kamchatka's highest and most active volcano.
Historical eruptions have originated primarily from the summit crater, but have also included major explosive and effusive eruptions from flank craters.
An increase in activity at Kliuchevskoi was noted in mid-March 1993, after a short period of repose.

Since its origin about 6000 years ago, the beautifully symmetrical, 4835-m-high basaltic stratovolcano has produced frequent moderate-volume explosive and effusive eruptions without major periods of inactivity.
Kliuchevskoi rises above a saddle NE of sharp-peaked Kamen volcano and lies SE of the broad Ushkovsky massif.
More than 100 flank eruptions have occurred at Kliuchevskoi during the past roughly 3000 years, with most lateral craters and cones occurring along radial fissures between the unconfined NE-to-SE flanks of the conical volcano between 500 m and 3600 m elevation.
