This histogram shows the number of earthquakes located within 8 km of the summit of Augustine Volcano between January 1, 1995 and November 27, 2005. Note that the current increase began in early May 2005. The current rate of earthquake activity observed at Augustine is well below that seen prior to the last eruption in 1986.
