Description

Tanaga Island lies in the Andreanof Islands approximately 100 km (62 miles) west of the community of Adak and 2025 km (1260 miles) SW of Anchorage. The northern half of the island is home to the Tanaga volcanic complex, comprising three main volcanic edifices. Tanaga volcano is the tallest of these (1,806 m or 5,925 ft) and lies in the center of the complex. The last known eruption of Tanaga occurred in 1914 and earlier eruptions were reported in 1763-1770, 1791, and 1829. Reports of these eruptions are vague, but deposits on the flanks of the volcano show that typical eruptions produce blocky lava flows and occasional ash clouds. Eruptions have occurred both from the summit vent and a 1,584 m (5,197 ft)-high satellite vent on the volcano's northeast flank. Immediately west of Tanaga volcano lies Sajaka, a 1,354 m (4,443 ft)-high compound edifice with an older cone to the east that collapsed into the sea within the last few thousand years, and a new cone that has grown in the breach. The new cone is 1,312 m (4,305 ft) high and consists of steeply dipping, interbedded cinders and thin, spatter-fed lava flows. To the east of Tanaga lies Takawangha, which is separated from the other active volcanic vents by a ridge of older rock. Takawangha's 1,449 m (4,754 ft)-high summit is mostly ice-covered, except for four young craters that have erupted ash and lava flows in the last few thousand years. Parts of Takawangha's edifice are hydrothermally altered and may be unstable, and could produce localized debris avalanches. No historical eruptions are known from Sajaka or Takawangha; however, field work shows that recent eruptions have occurred and it is possible that historic eruptions attributed only to Tanaga may instead have come from these other vents.

Name Origin

"Tanaga Volcano" was published in the 1944 Aleutian Coast Pilot (Orth, 1971).

Tanaga 1763

1763 — 1770

From Miller and others (1998):"Few details are available concerning historical activity of Tanaga Volcano, and some or all of the events attributed to it may have involved adjacent cones in the northwest part of the island (Coats, 1950)."
Grewingk (1850, translated 2003 by Fritz Jaensch) reports: "1763-1770 constantly active (according to promyshlenniks)."
From Sapper (1917): "Tanaga smoking in 1763-1770."

Tanaga 1791/6

June 9, 1791

Grewingk (1850, translated 2003 by Fritz Jaensch): Sauer and Sarychev saw smoking on the 9th of June, 1791. The English translation of Sarychev (translated from Russian in 1806 and 1807, republished 1969) makes no mention of smoking, and reads: "we were presented with the spectacle of a lofty volcanic mountain, that exposed to our view, at the distance of scarcely two miles, its black and tremendously tall side of rock."
Sauer (1802) writes that on the 9th of June, 1791, "At first we took the rock for the Volcano Gorelloi; but soon discovered it to be the northwest extremity of Tanaga, which is formed by an uneven-topped volcano, appearing like a cluster of mountains. One terminates in a conical point, of extreme height, emitting sometimes a column of smoke. They are all covered with snow, which descends in ridges to below the middle of the mountain, but much darkened by the quanity of ashes upon it."

Tanaga 1829

1829

Grewingk (1850, translated 2003 by Fritz Jaensch) reports: Tanaga smoking during 1829.

Tanaga 1914

1914

Coats (1950): a lava flow was observed at Tanaga in 1914.

Tanaga 2005/10

October 1, 2005 — November 2005

From McGimsey and others (2007): "Earthquake activity at Tanaga increased abruptly on October 1, 2005. Over the next several days, the number of located events ranged from 15 to 68 per day, in striking contrast to the typical one earthquake per month previously recorded since the seismic network was installed in 2003. The earthquakes centered a few kilometers northeast of the summit of Tanaga at a depth of 10-20 km (~6-12 mi), and the largest event had a magnitude of 1.7. AVO issued a special Information Release on October 5 to announce the activity. The activity further escalated that day and again early on October 7 with located earthquakes of magnitude 0.5-1.9 shallowing to depths of 6-12 km (~4-7.5 mi) beneath Tanaga's summit. This change in activity prompted AVO to raise the Level of Concern Color Code from Green to Yellow on October 7, 2005. By the following week, the daily earthquake count had fallen slightly, and by the next week, earthquake activity had diminished further, but remained above background levels. A several-minute-long period of unusual seismicity occurred on October 17 and may have been a landslide or small phreatic explosion, but no signs of activity were visible in satellite images. Although the daily earthquake count continued to dwindle, nearly continuous, weak volcanic tremor was recorded on seismic stations closest to nearby Takawangha Volcano on October 24 (see fig. 47 in original text). This was the first episode of tremor recorded at the Tanaga cluster since the seismic network was installed in 2003. Weak tremor continued for the next several weeks, gradually declining. Seismicity continued to decline further during November, and by the end of the month the likelihood of an eruption was considered significantly decreased. In an Information Release issued on November 25, 2005, AVO reduced the Level of Concern Color Code from Yellow to Green."

Tanaga 2014/2

February 2014 — March 2014

From Cameron and others, 2017: "In February and March 2014, an earthquake swarm occurred about 13 km (8 mi) southwest of Tanaga Volcano. This was the most energetic volcano-tectonic swarm at Tanaga since 2005 (McGimsey and others, 2007). The elevated seismicity continued into the summer, although at a reduced rate, and ended in late 2014. The swarm comprised 80 percent of all earthquakes located on or near Tanaga during the year. The earthquakes were all less than M2.0 and occurred at crustal depths of 5-10 km (3-6 mi). No specific cause was determined for the short-lived swarm. Despite the swarm, the Aviation Color Code and Volcano Alert Level remained at GREEN/NORMAL for all of 2014."

Tanaga unrest 2023

March 7, 2023

On Tuesday, March, 7, 2023, AVO elevated the Aviation Color Code and Volcano Alert Level at Tanaga to YELLOW/ADVISORY, stating "earthquake activity beneath Tanaga Volcano began to increase slowly starting at about 1:30 pm AKST today. At roughly 8:45 pm AKST this evening, the activity escalated with earthquakes occurring as often as 2 or 3 each minute. Initial locations of these earthquakes place them at shallow depths beneath the summit of Tanaga Volcano, and the largest of these earthquakes have magnitudes between 2 and 3."
On Thursday, March 9, 2023, AVO elevated Tanaga again to ORANGE/WATCH, stating "Over the past 24 hours, earthquake activity near Tanaga Volcano has been elevated and continues. This sustained activity indicates an increased potential for eruption at the volcano.*** Seismic activity is also elevated at Takawangha volcano, which is about 8 km (5 mi) east of Tanaga on Tanaga Island. If an eruption were to occur, it is uncertain at this stage if it would come from Tanaga or Takawangha."
