7 gru 2023 · The USGS California Volcano Observatory (CalVO) is responsible for assessing the potential hazards associated with these "watch list" volcanoes and providing civil authorities, as well as the public, with timely and accurate information to mitigate, plan, and respond effectively to volcanic activity.
The U.S. Geological Survey California Volcano Observatory (USGS CalVO) was formed in 2012 and is headquartered in Menlo Park CA. It replaced the former Long Valley Observatory (LVO), which was established in 1982 to monitor the restless Long Valley Caldera and Mono-Inyo Craters region of Eastern California.
7 gru 2023 · The California Volcano Observatory (CalVO) monitors volcanoes in the states of California and Nevada for signs of unrest (activity). Detectable movement of molten rock or volcanic gas beneath a volcano will precede a large eruption.

The California Volcano Observatory (CalVO) is the volcano observatory that monitors the volcanic and geologic activity of California and Nevada. It is a part of the Volcano Hazards Program of the United States Geological Survey, a scientific agency of the United States government. [2]
At least 10 eruptions have taken place in California in the past 1,000 years—most recently at Lassen Peak in Lassen Volcanic National Park (1914 to 1917) in the northern part of the State—and future volcanic eruptions are inevitable.
