Latest report from Julio Vivero who was invited on board the Atlantic Explorer.

Comments from earthquake-report.com

Update 28/04 – 23:48 UTC
As written earlier, Julio del Castillo Vivero was invited by the crew of the Atlantic Explorer to sail with them to the vent area. He wrote the following :
Hello, very good day with the Atlantic Explorer, the crew of Qstar and the scientists. I was above the volcano! A very special moment for me after many months following the eruption. I saw lots of seagulls above the main vent, eating dead fish, around the size of 10cm that was emerging to the surface.
The stain was very clearly visible today from the boat, with a green color, not super strong concentrated as used to, but quite clear.
I didn't get seasick at all, it was very good. Sea was calm in the morning and then also sunny from midday.
Great day! Great people! Great images!
(ER : strange that there are still dead fish above the main vent – we also noticed on Jokes pictures in the middle of the week that a lot of seagulls were flying above the vent area.
The news coming in from the Atlantic Explorer is even more important as Joke has not seen any action in the sea today, which means that the volcano can erupt without a clear visual sign on the outside. Good to know is that seagulls on the vent area are indicating dead fish and thus erupting material and that a stain clearly indicates action which is more than degassing)

In the map of seismicity of recent days, today a sismito to the NNW of the tip of white sands in the area from which there was the day 28. Yesterday day 30 there was a small earthquake in the Julán in the area of the calm sea and antesdeayer day 29 in the area's busiest, the bear of la Restinga, also in the mar de las Calmas. The 28 day there was one very shallow in the NE of the island and another in the Julan, with the two of antesdeayer day 26 are in the area of Cala Pinar, the 24th there was one in the Julan and day 22 there was one located near the area of the eruptive mouth of la Restinga, quite deep. These 5 earthquakes are all aligned in NNW-SSE direction.(In blue on the map).The day 19 there were 3 sismitos, one in the area of increased activity these days of the mar de las Calmas, one in the Julan and another to the East of the island, quite deep. The last day 18 there were two sismitos in the sea of las Calmas, one against the Julan, and another to the is of the port of la Restinga, very shallow. You can also see her zone of seismic activity more intense these past days in the area of the sea of the calm of the 3.0 and 2.2 (red) of the 16 day and where we had a 2.7 and 2.5 at the beginning of the month... The rest of seismicity since first of month appears scattered but marking some interesting alignments addresses NE-SO, NNW-SSE, NNE-SSW bear - January, etc....(Henry)6 hours ago · 6

Late yesterday there were 3 more smaller earthquakes.

Echo photos of the Volcanic Cone.

Comment by Antonio González Ramos, a researcher at ULPGC, on the page of AVCAN (present volcanic Canary Islands)We had the ULPGC/qstar post exit meeting... Preliminary results that we can target:1.-La mancha appears and disappears to the sway of the current 3D fields. The morning was and in the evening not (in March we thought the same, I was 13 and not 14)....When the current is strong, the pen is advectada/transported the layers and no signal appears in sup....2. The greenish color of the water this related to metallic elements that form chemical complex of that color (oxides). There is no sulfídrico... which is very good.3 Confirm that there are still ash in water (also was obvious).... One of the magnetic triggers that activate the closure of sampling bottles (of 50 m) did not finish. It pervaded "magnetic" ash (metals). This has happened other times in previous outings. Ash, definitiviamente is (and will be for a little time) a good headache (ROVs, cameras, accurate morfometrías, oceanographic sensors)4.-The most indicative value is ph. 7 in the morning, 7.5 by to the afternoon (swell that mixes water and her - normalize-...). The normal ph in the Ocean (= Canary Islands) is basic (> 8.2). This ph slightly acid is indicative of a high content of CO2 in water (confirmed) and there is still some acidity in the water. In any case much less than 5 and oct/nov/Dec 11 peak... This explains the bubbling (gases-co2), the echo signal (gas + ash at depth). Also explain the greenish color (iron quelos), anoxia (ph under high CO2). Also the accumulation on surface of coastal pelagic juvenile fish would explain (confirmed) (sardines/mackerel...) - they passed through there - who suffered a small column of water (20-30 m width) with lack of O2 as pointed out octavio, acid ph, load of ash that adheres to the Gill arches and the eyes...Confirmed also the gaviotil feast... or they inmutan...It is also good sign... This confined to the environment - cone - local fish mortality, at the very least, this microfenómeno...and gulls (who see the stain the first) are responsible for metabolize these accidental loss of biomass/fish and turn them again into organic material that returns to the system... Strength, wind, sea and honor to all. ULPGC/QSTAR team.

Update 09/05 – 17:56 UTC
- We have added more images of May 6 from Joke to the already present series
- We have added also the first part of the images from May 7

Update 09/05 – 14:00 UTC
- With surprise, after a week, IGN CSIC with collaboration of Salvamar Adhara have published a 6 minute video of the volcano showing a lot of degassing.
- The images are part the volcanic activity followup by the CSIC and IGN team taken from the Salvamar Adhara. Images are from top parts of the volcano but not the cone. The degassing can later be converted into green and blue stains on the surface as we have seen in the past week and on the video filmed on the Atlantic Explorer from Julio del Castillo Vivero.

Update 12/05 – 06:27 UTC
-Each time that we think : now it is really over, the volcano surprises with a new earthquake. Once again this morning, a 1.6 Magnitude earthquake at a depth of 10 km at 04:14 UTC. Epicenter here.

TripleH

Good morning, jand. Long time no speak, how are you?

jand

I am fine thank you hope you are well.

Latest report from earthquake-report.com says that Bob seems to be rumbling on again.

Update 12/05 – 15:10 UTC
- Nr. 4 today at 13:50 UTC and most of the hypocenter's (depth) are at ca 10 km. The last quake was a M1.2 earthquake at a depth of 8 km to the SW of El Pinar (in fact near the volcano cone in the Las Calmas sea)

Update 12/05 – 09:19 UTC
-The volcano is rumbling again (at least he shows it by the earthquakes). IGN staff must certainly hate these new earthquakes as they can only leave the island when a period of a few weeks without earthquakes would take place. 3 earthquakes in one day, it was a while ago! Let's follow up what will happen later today. Joke has been informed about the new earthquakes and will take a look in the Las Calmas Sea whether all remains quiet (the contrary would surprise us as much more is needed to generate new activity).
2 new ones have been listed by IGN
The second today to the West of Frontera (. Magnitude 1.6 at a depth of 18 km. Epicenter here
The third to the North West of Frontera. Magnitude 0.9 at a depth of 10 km. Epicenter here  (El Golfo)

Latest reports courtesy of earthquake-report.com its interesting to read the Salvamar is back in the port of La Restinga.

Update 12/05 – 20:59 UTC
-Er reader Sissel informed us tonight that the small coast guard ship Salvamar Adhara returned tonight in the port of La Restinga. The ship (red smaller ship) departed at Tenerife at 12:36. We do not know whether the return of the ship, used to capture volcano SLS and to video volcano activity, has anything to do with the sudden rise in earthquake numbers or is purely coincidence.

Update 12/05 – 20:47 UTC
- ER reader Pascal told us a while ago that a 5th earthquake took place to the SW of El Pinar. The preliminary depth was 2 km!.  This extremely shallow depth will be looked at by IGN scientists with a magnifier, as extremely shallow quakes can be the sign of new activity. Often these depth are updated to deeper depths. As we have no GPS data yet, we have only the earthquakes to inform us and that makes a total of 5 tonight. Magnitude 1.2 km Time : 19:10
- ER reader Sissel told us earlier tonight that also the HT graph line at CHIE became thicker. She is right although the current thickness is not yet a reason to expect new activity.

After a well earned holiday break with my family there is some news today that Bob is still erupting and a new earthquake swarm has started once again .

www.earthquake-report.com has a photo of the underwater eruption and details of the new earthquake swarm.

There are comments on other sites aswell that withdrawing all webcams and updates of harmonic tremor is ludicrous and could be dangerous for the people of El Hierro.

The earthquake swarm is listed below (apologies it is long) and there have also been more earthquakes since this morning.

The list is courtesy of Avcan and IGN.

Seismic activity returns to El Hierro.

SERGIO GUTIÉRREZ, Valverde (4, 6, 2012 17: 31 hours)The municipality of La Frontera has recorded 13: 58 hours this Monday, June 4, a total of six earthquakes, one of them felt by the population. Apparently, seismic activity has returned this month to the island of El Hierro after several days without registering movements.The largest earthquake recorded this Monday, from 2.9 degrees of magnitude on the Richter scale, was located at 12: 45 pm today, Monday, June 4, on the western border and 17 kilometers deep, according to collect the National Geographic Institute (IGN) in the catalogue of earthquakes in the last 10 days in the Canary Islands of magnitude equal to or greater than 1.5 degrees.According to IGN data collected by daily EL HIERRO, the other five earthquakes detected so far in El Hierro have been located in the Southwest or Northwest border and have been recorded between 1.6 and 2.0 degrees of magnitude on the Richter scale.For his part, yesterday, Sunday, June 3, the border recorded an earthquake of 1.7 degrees of magnitude on the Richter scale, 12 kilometers deep. Also, the past June 1, in the same municipality Hierro were detected 2 earthquakes of 1.5 and 1.7 degrees of magnitude and between 18 and 28 kilometers deep, according to IGN data collected by daily EL HIERRO.Twitter

Avcan comments regarding the new activity today at El Hierro.

New volcanic earthquake swarm in El Hierro in the area of the Gulf in NNW-SSW alignment, where should be noted that we have today been 18 earthquakes located in time and 4 of these earthquakes above 2 degrees and all at great depth, indicating a new intrusion of magma at depth... They have also relocated the earthquakes of June that have changed many of them of position... (Henry)http://www.avcan.org/Mapas/AVCAN3206.jpg?d=1339661456

TheAnd of course the energies accumulated liberated seismically curve returns to pick up, as not as towards since February indicating that it is a considerable rebound... If you are still his tendency to keep climbing exponentially within a few days we will have to start thinking about a revival of the system at the moment according to these data, this is simply upturn in activity...(Henry).,,

 http://www.avcan.org/sismica/graficas/G940.jpg?t=1339662819 curve in energy is also increasing.

All post from the 14th June to today can still be viewed on the old forum.

Update 29/06 – 07:21 UTC
- Earthquakes continued all night long
- The earthquakes list yesterday was finalized on 195 earthquakes!, earlier described as weaker
- IGN has listed 41 earthquakes so far today, almost equal than the preceding days
- 1 of these earthquakes had a Magnitude of 3.0
- The depth is unchanged at 18 to 21 km with only a few exceptions
- The location of the epicenter is still west of the Lighthouse, partly below the island and partly in the close to the coast Las Calmas sea
