June 2011 - the eruption was filmed by Russian TV youtube has the video here - and some coverage on 'Earthquake Report' website here suggests ash is 10km in the air and that VAAC will be reporting soon.EdwardLane (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 19:52, 19 June 2011 (UTC) Russia apparently anticipates a much larger eruption 'soon' based on this EdwardLane (talk) 20:09, 19 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

nice modis image of ash plume which has labels and a scale here

more info here from Kvert 4.7km ash plumes on 9 September 2011 and possibly 10.3km plume on 11 september (based on seismic activity rather than visual reports). EdwardLane (talk) 15:46, 16 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Names of the volcano

In addition to Shiveluch and Sheveluch, NASA Earth Observatory uses the name Shivelyuch, as on the nice Landsat photo from April 2026, which I just added to our article.

Someone reverted my add of NASA's preferred name, calling it "weird spelling." Since that's the name that NASA uses, it makes sense to include it in our article. Pete Tillman (talk) 18:17, 13 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Yes it is a weird spelling. People who make photos are not experts in the whole complete world geography. A photo caption is hardly a reliable source for Wikipedia. Ho need to propagate nonstandard uncommon names. P.S. in 19th cetnury it was called (Russian: Шевелюч, romanized: Shevelyuch).--Altenmann >talk 18:45, 13 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

P.S. you cited me out of context: I wrote "unref weird spelling". Now I added two more spellings, with adequate refs. --Altenmann >talk 18:54, 13 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
