Update from Involcan about the emission rate of CO2 on El Hierro.

Translated.

''Involcan estimates that the current co2 emission by the iron island volcano is 1.150 tons daily

This emission rate is higher than the average value observed for this volcanic building during the period 1998-2010, approximately 420 tonnes a day, and slightly higher than the maximum value of the value range that have been considered normal for the island volcanic system Iron for periods inter-eruptive or tranquility; between 180 and 980 tonnes a day.''

http://www.involcan.org/noticias/

During the recent pre-eruptive ww.involcan.organd eruptive of the iron, with a 5-month underwater eruption and several post-eruptive seismic crises, the diffuse emission of carbon dioxide (Co2) from the island volcanic system The Iron was over 2.200 tons a day.

The report from Involcan for Tenerife for the month of June it will need translating .

Latest reports courtesy of Enrique.

Translated.

''The Seismic network detects much better the earthquakes of the interior Tenerife, the Canary Islands, Spain.- this past week has gone unnoticed by the activity in the teide caldera area despite several earthquakes located by the ign, about 8 Since July 21th.

In contrast, the involcan has located a total of 48 earthquakes in the same period, of which 36 are in the boiler area in a nw alignment, following the axis of the nw ridge of Tenerife. An increase in background volcanic activity is noted and more after several seismic swarms in the area.

In the June 2017 monthly report, in addition to appreciating that co2 levels are still above the values considered as normal since November 2016 and the rest of the variables are maintained.

In Short, at the moment nothing to worry about, the teide is guarded and only has a small spike in seismic activity, which will have to monitor how this seismicity evolves because it could be the beginning of something (Enrique). ''

Looks more like the back of El Mattoral, almost directly opposite the airport & inland maybe 3/4 mile or so.
Anyone feel it ??

I thought it could have been near the road to Triquiviate where the hills the two boobs are trying to think if there is a Volcanic system around there ?

The main Volcano around this area I can think of is Tiscamanita.

I know the road you mean. Use it to get home to Valles de Ortega via Antigua. I just overlaid the position onto Google maps but depends how accurate it was on the original positioning

The American magazine ‘Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems` has just published an article based on new findings about the Tagoro undersea volcano that erupted off the island of El Hierro, near to La Restinga, in 2011. New technology that uses acoustic images have captured the phenomenon of this new undersea volcano in a study by the Geological and Mining Institute of Spain (IGME).

This new report shows that the underwater volcano grew 286 metres, and during the eruption there were periodic violent emissions of large bubbles of volcanic products, called lava balls. These large lava balls then sank before reaching the surface of the sea, as the walls of these lava balls were chilled by the cold water, but their centres were full of incandescent lava.

Luis Somoza, head of the oceanographic campaign GIRE and marine geologist for IBME was on board the Sarmiento de Gamboa ship during the volcanic emergency plan in 2011, which went to the area of the volcano to discover more about its size and growth. He said that although this was his duty and job, he was also delighted to be involved in learning more about this phenomenon.

This new report also explains that the eruption consisted of forming hornitos or chimneys of more than five metres high that crown the top of this underwater volcano, and 89 metres deep. These hornitos are pyramidal structures constructed by aggregating hydrothermal volcanic products during the final stages of eruption.

There is also a volcano information centre near the town of La Restinga on El Hierro, where visitors can learn more about volcanic eruptions, and the Tagoro undersea volcano that made this island so famous in 2011. Life on the island has now returned to normal, but with an added underwater attraction.
