Whakaari/White Island emits ash plume, poses no risk to mainland coastline, says GeoNet.

Whakaari/White Island ash plume captures sunrise, posing no risk to the mainland coastline. GeoNet, which monitors earthquakes and volcanoes, reports that the volcano has emitted an almost continuous steam and gas plume in recent weeks. The ash emission, while visually striking, did not extend beyond the island's coast. GeoNet plans to continue monitoring the volcano for any further changes in unrest.
