Prediction of volcanic activity, and volcanic eruption forecasting, is an interdisciplinary monitoring and research effort to predict the time and severity of a volcano's eruption. Of particular importance is the prediction of hazardous eruptions that could lead to catastrophic loss of life, property, and disruption of human activities.
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]

The Cascade Volcanic arc is located approximately 100 km inland from the coast, and forms a north-to-south chain of peaks that average over 3,000 m (10,000 ft) in elevation. [3] The major peaks from south to north include: Lassen Peak and Mount Shasta (California) Crater Lake (Mazama), Three Sisters, Mount Jefferson, Mount Hood (Oregon)
Map of Long Valley Caldera Early winter in Long Valley, 2017. Long Valley Caldera is a depression in eastern California that is adjacent to Mammoth Mountain.The valley is one of the Earth's largest calderas, measuring about 20 mi (32 km) long (east-west), 11 mi (18 km) wide (north-south), and up to 3,000 ft (910 m) deep.
The Long Valley Caldera, which includes Mammoth Lakes area, has been having seismic activity, which can precede a volcanic eruption. Scientists say not to worry. One of California's riskiest ...
