Best El Hierro Thread On GLP - Canary Islands - ACTIVITY HAS RETURNED - AGAIN! | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 25667145  Spain10/17/2012 08:42 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Discover origin of the massive terrestrial volcanic eruptions in Tenerife Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2485889 The Las Cañadas caldera has a history of eight mega eruptions in 700 thousand years, and in his remains, scientists discovered what happened immediately before these explosions Scientists identified at least eight violent volcanic eruptions of a catastrophic nature to the Earth in the last 700 thousand years in the caldera La Cañada in Tenerife, Canary Islands, and discovered that the trigger for these explosions was when old and cold magma was mixed with fresh and hot magma. Events generated were of such dimension eruptions were raised about 25 kilometers in height, with material pyroclastic which reached the 130 km of extension to your around, reported yesterday by the University of Southampton. Doctor Rex Taylor and a University team studied nodules of igneous rocks formed by clusters of crystals of magma in the large volcanic eruptions of the past pyroclastic deposits. Taylor stressed that these nodules of clusters of crystals are trapped in the magma chambers before solidify. Physical characteristics reveal the changes that occur in the magma until the volcano erupting. These nodules resemble coarse wet sand balls, explain, and there is marked circles of crystals that are very different from if. In this way scientists discovered in boiler La Cañada, circles of magma in the past are very different to those that existed immediately before the explosion. Taylor posits that the agitation of the young and hot magma on the magma old and cold, seems to be the common element before each major eruption, said Dr. Tom Gernon, Professor of Oceanography and co-author of the study. "Analysis of the volcano glass nodules documents end processes and immediately prior to the eruption changes that trigger catastrophic eruptions," says Gernon, according to a University report. "The mere presence of white nodules in the piroplasticos deposits suggests that the magma chamber empties into the eruption, and the Chamber collapses on itself, forming the caldera", adds the scientist. The team studies the La Canada de Tenerife volcano, is located close to populated areas, and has a history of large and catastrophic explosions. They compared the lesser of these explosions was 25 times stronger than the eruption of the volcano Eyjafjallajökull in 2010 in Iceland, whose cloud spread to Europe and managed to block many international flights for days. The boiler The Canada is located in the "ravines of el Teide", in Tenerife, in the Canary Islands, and is regarded as one of the larger boilers in the land. About 170,000 years ago still existed a large volcano in the Centre of the island, where today lies the boiler, advises Geocaching. Recurrent eruptions of what was this enormous volcano emptied magma below. On the north side of the caldera there are two active volcanoes, the "peak of el Teide" with 3,718 metres, who made rash in 1492 and the 'Pico Viejo' with 3,135 meters, which erupted in 1798. According to Geocaching ' in the last five centuries, from 1492 always there was a volcanic eruption around the turn of the century not more than 10 years sooner or later ". In 1492 was at Pico del Teide; In 1604, seven sources; In 1706 in Montana burned; 1798 in old peak and in 1909 the Chinyero. [link to www.lagranepoca.com] Interesting because Tenerife and several other islands had major forest fires this year. Some were never ruled accident/arson/nature because there was no clues on what led to the origin of the fires. Some of the people who have been talking about Hierro, not necessarily here but in the circles, have speculated it was magma so close to the surface that it ignited dry timber and grass. Who knows...maybe it's a sign? Not likely, it has been a record dry year, in the pineforests fire is easily ignited. A piece of glass is enough. |

[link to www.01.ign.es] i've seen those weird thicker lines on La Palma as well. I'm wondering if they're signals of rock creaking? |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 2121576 United Kingdom10/17/2012 04:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In the past 24 hours, we had 6 quakes . The majority of them under the southern part of the island on the steep slopes to the Mar de las Calmas in 15 to 23 km depth (red dots). This morning at 5.31 clock the first time a quake in the Gulf off the coast of Sabinosa. A tremor of ML1, 7 km in 12 depth (pink). After it in the last few months south of the Canaries to the Cape Verde Islands quake now increasingly came to the area is about 1200 km to the north, on the southwestern tip of Portugal center of a quake surge. The sea area around Cabo de San Vicente near the southern Algarve is experiencing a series of earthquakes. Yesterday at 11:13 clock one ML5, 0 quake depth of 30 km. For a long time from there is an active activity as the ML6, 1 quake on 15/09/2009 (left graph). Back then there were damages and casualties to Beja and Seville in southern Spain. Even the great earthquake of 1st November 1755 at the Lisbon was completely destroyed and nearly 100,000 people lost their lives, had its epicenter at Capo de San Vicente. Read at Wikipedia .

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 2061183 United Kingdom10/18/2012 01:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is from 2007 but maybe has been brought to light again because of all the recent activity near the Azores. ..The earthquake that was felt in Andalusia, greatest earthquake since 1969 ■The earthquake that occurred today at 11: 35, time, southwest of Cape St. Vincent (Portugal) damage has not occurred. ■It will not cause a tsunami despite its power ■It is the strongest second who sits on Spain since 1969. ECO ® EFE. 12.02.2007-14.15 h The epicentre of the earthquake, told Efe the head of the Department of Geophysics of the National Geographic Institute (IGN), statements José Manuel Martínez, has been in the sea, 500 kilometres from Cadiz, opposite the southwest corner of the peninsula, 200 miles from the Cape St. Vincent, where the Azores-Gibraltar fault. In the earthquake of 1969, there were 4 deaths by heart attack East earthquake, whose magnitude was evaluated in the first few minutes in 6.3 and subsequent measurements have resituado 6.1, has been in the same place as the 1969, although on that occasion he was 7.3 and felt in all Spain, causing, as recalled Martinez, 4 who have died of heart attacks. On this occasion, the earthquake, whose final coordinates are 36.09 degrees North and 10.26 degrees West, has been felt at intensity IV in the Mercalli intensity scale, in the provinces of Seville, Cádiz and Huelva, but also in Fuengirola (Málaga), Malaga, Jaen and Cordoba, and in high buildings in Madrid. The telluric movement, which according to reports available in the IGN, there in Spain damage, will not cause a tsunami - tsunami - because to give it I had to have occurred in a vertical fault and this has emerged in a "reverse but not vertical" failure. It is possible that the tide of Tarifa and Cadiz recorded "some movement", but Martínez recalled that in 1969, being of greater magnitude, produced a wave of half a meter. MARTINEZ said that before an earthquake do go out to get away from the buildings, but in case of not being able to do is must find a stable place, under a table, a bed or the lintel of a door, never use the elevator, or light a match or the light. Andalusia 112 emergency service attended 400 phone calls in the first hour after the earthquake, and in the provinces of Seville, Cadiz and Huelva were the preventive evacuation of some buildings. This degree of intensity is comparable to the vibration produced by the passage of a truck heavy with burden, producing vibrations in tableware, Windows and doors, so it is also perceived by people in the interior of the buildings and by some on the outside..
