The Kamchatka Volcanic Eruption Response Team (KVERT) is a Russian national institution dedicated to provide information of any volcanic activity taking place on the Kamchatka Peninsula and the Kuril Islands of Russia that could become a threat to local communities and aviation.

[2] The Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO), United States Geological Survey (USGS) and its affiliates also provide joint efforts to the program.

[3] The majority of the volcanoes on the Kuril Islands are monitored by the Sakhalin Volcanic Eruption Response Team (SVERT), which is located in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, but all reports of volcanic activity in the island chain are posted in joint effort on the KVERT website.

[5][6] The offices for KVERT are located at the Institute of Volcanic Geology and Seismology in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky on the Kamchatka Peninsula.

While the majority of these volcanoes are in remote locations and would only pose a threat to aviation, there are a few that could have an impact on populated communities.
