Description

From Miller and others (1998) [1] : "Mount Dutton is a small snow- and ice-covered calc-alkaline volcanic center with an approximate diameter of 5 km (not including the isolated large intra-canyon lava flow 5 km southwest of the summit) and an estimated volume of 7-15 cubic km. The volcano is built on an east-sloping basement of hydrothermally altered Tertiary volcanic rocks [2] .
"The volcano consists of a central multiple dome complex [3] in which successive domes shouldered aside earlier domes and the enclosing cone-building volcanic rocks. Some hydrothermal alteration occurs along vertical contacts between adjacent domes. The dome-building activity and associated collapse has caused extensive destruction of cone-building lava flows and, to a lesser extent the domes themselves. This has resulted in the massive, thick-bedded debris flows 100-200 m thick that surround and mantle the central dome complex.
"A headwall scarp about 300 m high and dipping to the northwest about 45 degrees forms the west side of the summit. Debris avalanches from this and lower areas moved down either side of the east-west oriented range crest. The resulting avalanche deposits include blocks up to 5 m in diameter and are characterized by hummocky topography and small closed depressions. The avalanche deposits cover a total area of about 11.4 square km and have an estimated volume of about 0.17 cubic km.
"Only slightly dissected debris flows and pyroclastic flows occur on the east flank of the volcano. Two flank-domes occur 3.5 km north-northeast of the summit of Mount Dutton at an elevation of 520 m. These non-glaciated flank domes are assumed to represent Holocene eruptions. Most, if not all, of the avalanche and debris flows that mantle the volcano's flanks are also Holocene in age."

Name Origin

T.A. Jagger named Mount Dutton in 1927, for Clarence Edward Dutton, a 19th century volcanologist (Orth, 1971).

Dutton 1988/10

October 7, 1988 — August 8, 1988

Miller and others (1998) summarize the 1988 seismic swarm at Dutton volcano as follows: "A swarm of shallow earthquakes during July and August, 1988, beneath Mount Dutton (Smithsonian Institution, 1988) sparked a volcano-seismic crisis. The activity was concentrated in three episodic sub-swarms with the largest event ML=4.0; many of these events were felt sharply at nearby communities; particularly King Cove, causing much concern. The distribution of epicenters forms a roughly linear zone which extends in a southeast direction about 10 km from the western shoulder of the volcano. The trend of the epicentral zone is parallel to the direction of maximum horizontal compression resulting from subduction of the Pacific plate and includes a prominent zone of hydrothermal alteration of the country rock. These similarities suggest that the seismic activity results from fracturing of the country rock as a dike is emplaced beneath Mount Dutton."
Wood and Kienle (1990) also report a seismic swarm at Mount Dutton during 1984-1985.

Ash Forecasting

Mathematical models developed by the USGS forecast various aspects of how a volcanic ash plume will interact with wind—where, how high, and how fast ash particles will be transported in the atmosphere, as well as where ash will fall out and accumulate on the ground. AVO runs these models when a volcano is restless by assuming a reasonable hypothetical eruption, to provide a pre-eruptive forecast of areas likely to be affected. During an ongoing eruption, AVO will update the forecast with actual observations (eruption start time and duration, plume height) as they become available.

Ashfall thickness forecast

The Ash3d model was developed by the USGS to forecast how a volcanic ash plume will interact with wind and where ash will fall out and accumulate on the ground. AVO runs these models twice daily when a volcano is restless by assuming a reasonable hypothetical eruption altitude and duration. The map shows the model results of ashfall thickness for areas that are likely to be affected, if one were to occur. During an ongoing eruption, AVO will update the forecast with actual observations (eruption start time and duration, plume height) as they become available, and these plots will be automatically updated. The National Weather Service Anchorage Forecast Office will issue the official ashfall warning product and post them at weather.gov/afc

Ashfall Start Time

This map shows the modeled estimate of the time it would take for ashfall to begin following an eruption. It corresponds to the ashfall thickness forecast map shown above. This map uses the start time of either the twice-daily hypothetical model runs (time shown in the legend) or the actual eruption start time (if one were to occur). In the case of an actual eruption, the National Weather Service Anchorage Forecast Office will issue the official ashfall warning product that includes the ashfall start time and post them at weather.gov/afc
