:Seismicity in Tenerife, 3 days, 3 Earthquakes, Canary Islands, Spain.- are small earthquakes ranging jalonando the island from east to west, beginning with the day before yesterday one of magnitude 0.8 (Microsismo) 4.9 km Deep and located in the sea between Tenerife and Gran Canaria, but closer to Tenerife. Yesterday there was another one of magnitude 1.3 in the area of fasnia 7.7 km deep and finally this morning another small earthquake of magnitude 1.1 at a depth of 16.1 km in the area of Boca de tauce alongside The Caldera of glens in the area of the swarm of last year.

El Hierro provides keys to anticipate future eruptions in the Canary Islands


:When on October 10, 2011, the IGN instruments began to detect that magma was sprouting in some point under the sea of ​​Las Calmas, very close to the port of La Restinga, it was four decades ago that the Canary Islands did not live a phenomenon of this type, specifically , From the birth of the Teneguía volcano in La Palma (1971).

However, the islands had seen more recent seismic events and a couple of warnings from Teide (1989 and 2004), so this time the Canary Islands had long had a monitoring network, both earthquakes and deformations of the terrain .

The authors of this paper maintain that, if the data collected by the Canary Islands seismic monitoring network are observed since 1996, they are compared with the data for a much wider geographical context (from Azores to Morocco and from Cadiz to Cape Verde) by Other international organisms, "signs of anomalous tectonic activity from 2003 onwards, whose intensity increased in 2007 and that finally accelerated three months before the eruption of October 2011 in El Hierro."

These scientists consider that they can prove that the birth of the Tagoro volcano "was preceded by years" of earthquakes and deformations caused by an eruption of magma from the mantle at different points of the subsoil located under the Canary Islands, the Atlas mountain range and the South of the Iberian Peninsula..

The recent issue of the Earth and Planetary Science Letters Magazine documents the first underwater volcanic eruption off the coast of the Island of El Hierro on 10 October 2011 that has been monitored and watched live since that date. It seems that not just the residents and tourists of El Hierro can witness the birth of this new underwater volcano in the sea near Restinga, but satellite cameras orbiting Earth can easily identify the submarine cloud of sulphur that is estimated to be around three million tons and shown as green spots.

This underwater volcanic eruption has been so important to the global scientific community that is has been given the name of Tagoro. The underwater lava emissions resulted in large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) being created that increased the acidity of the water around Tagoro Volcano by around 20%. Although the birth of this new underwater volcano has been monitored by the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, the Spanish Institute of Oceanography and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration of the USA, other researchers from the USA, Germany and Canada have also contributed to providing more information about the amounts of sulphur compounds and CO2 emissions.

These green spots identified by satellite confirm the Tagoro Volcano eruption lasted for around four months and transferred significant amounts of volatile substances to the surface of the sea. Also, Tagoro contributed between 1% to 7% of all global volcanic CO2 emissions over this eruption period and around 1% of all volcanic sulphide emissions. So Tagoro remains famous as the first underwater volcano that has been monitored and watched from its birth, and this scientific report points out that the CO2 it produced matched those of other volcanoes across the world, such as Etna in Italy and Erebus in the Antarctic. So although El Hierro has another tourist attraction just off the coast of Restinga, it cannot be seen, as it remains under the sea, and now sleeping or dormant.
