The volcano of La Restinga eject large rocks again

The volcano has returned to La Restinga eject large chunks of solidified lava. The focus cameras 24 hours a bubbling area captured from the first morning, however, "were no more than 20 or 30 rocks" that emerged, says a spokeswoman for the National Geographic Institute (IGN), Carmen Lopez .

A IGN researchers did not give time to collect samples because they could not approach the area due to the strong prevailing wind and the rocks sank quickly, its large size. Carmen Lopez and IGN technicians arrived near the eruptive Salvamar aboard and found that washes out "smoking" in the midst of a "much bubbling" by the emission of "greenhouse and very fine and dense material."

The expulsion of solid material lasted less than two hours. At the moment only seen a bubble in the focal zone eruption.

Graphic which aims to present each day as if there had been an earthquake and the earthquake alone would be equivalent to the sum of the rest of earthquakes a day.
This is to compare the energy released (presented as magnitude), with the average depth of daily events, the average magnitude of the events and the number of events have occurred in the day.
To calculate the average depth, it is weighted by the energy released by each event. (JR)

NOTE AVCAN 362 - EARTHQUAKE ACTIVITY-VOLCANIC - HIERRO ISLAND - DECEMBER 04 2011-22:00 h peninsular - seismic-volcanic activity continues to moderate, with seismicity in the del Golfo marine area. Continue an important sign of volcanic tremor in the Restinga area, with an amplitude which remained stable since the last, least the last 2 hours starting at 7:50 p.m. or so where it has doubled in intensity by a possible jam in the pipe and swings and more explosions, possibly hydromagmatic. The magnitude of the earthquake only 1.4. New earthquakes 1. Depths at 17km. Before yesterday 5. Yesterday 3. Today van 2. A total of 11,909 earthquakes are located in El Hierro by IGN from 9:00 am of July 19, 2011 (Enrique).

The diffuse emission of CO2 by the volcanic system of El Hierro island falls under the INVOLCAN

This downward trend since late November until now arriving at 1560 � 59 tonnes per day

Since last July, scientists at the Institute of Technology and Renewable Energies (ITER), an agency of the Cabildo of Tenerife, and is now part of volcanological Institute of the Canaries (INVOLCAN) have conducted numerous scientific surveys of diffuse emissions volcanic gases that have materialized over the entire surface of the island of Isla Meridian. The results show a downward trend in the diffuse emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere by the volcano island of El Hierro since late November, when it came to achieving the 2398 � 115 tons per day, up to now been recorded an emission rate of 1,560 � 59 tonnes per day.

This record to the bottom of the diffuse emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) in turn implies that the pressure of carbon dioxide (CO2) in volcanic-magmatic system existing in the hydrothermal-island of El Hierro should not continue to grow as well it might be inferred during the observation period was experiencing an increase in the diffuse emission of carbon dioxide (CO2).

The scientific purpose of these campaigns is to investigate spatio-temporal variations of the diffuse emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere by the volcanic system of El Hierro island since the results thereof can not be obtained through networks permanent instrumental analysis contribute to the evolution of the current eruptive phase is occurring in El Hierro. On the other hand, it is widely accepted that the gases are the driving force of volcanic eruptions and monitoring of carbon dioxide (CO2) in volcanic surveillance programs is very important because not only is the second major component of volcanic gases after water vapor, but also because of its low solubility in molten silicitados (magma) favoring the carbon dioxide (CO2) to escape with their ease of volcanic systems in depth.

These scientific surveys have failed to materialize due to MAKAVOL project "Capacity Building of R + D + i + d to contribute to the reduction of volcanic risk in the Macaronesia (MAC/3/C161)" which is being co-funded by the Transnational Cooperation Programme of the European Union Madeira-Canary-Azores (MAC 2007-2013) and the collaboration of the Island Councils of Tenerife and El Hierro.

INVOLCAN is an institution demanded unanimously by the Senate (2005), Parliament of the Canary Islands (2006) and House of Representatives (2009) with the aim of contributing to improving and optimizing the management of volcanic risk in Spain.

The Involcan shows a decrease in the diffuse emission of CO2 by the volcanic system


Scientists at the Institute of Technology and Renewable Energies (ITER), an agency of the Cabildo of Tenerife, and is now part of volcanological Institute of the Canaries (Involcan), indicate a downward trend of the diffuse emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere by the volcano island of El Hierro since late November, when it came to achieving the 2398 � 115 tons per day, up to now been recorded an emission rate of 1,560 � 59 tonnes per day.
This record to the bottom of the diffuse emission of CO2 in turn implies that the pressure of CO2 in the system magmatic-hydrothermal volcanic-existing in the island "should not continue to grow as well it might be inferred during the period of observation was experiencing an increase in the diffuse emission of CO2. "

The Involcan said in a statement that the purpose of these campaigns is to investigate scientific spatiotemporal variations of the diffuse emission of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere by the volcanic system since the results can not be obtained through permanent instrumental network developments contribute to the analysis of the current eruptive phase is occurring in El Hierro.
