Tsunami threat at El Hierro confirmed by Spanish marine geology site
Found by AC 36956601 on the main thread..

The marine geology commented yesterday that there does lurk the possibility of a landslide causing a Tsunami.


..La actividad sísmica continua en las inmediaciones de la isla, amenazando con posibles episodios volcánicos, a pesar de que la incertidumbre del evento es muy alta y no sabemos ni cuando ni donde podría presentarse. Mientras escribo estas lineas se comenta en los noticieros el terremoto de magnitud 4.9 que ha sucedido este medio dia y que ha sido sentido claramente por la población. Se produjo un importante desprendimiento de ladera con caida de bloques y material disgregado en las cercanías de Pozo Perejil. Uno de los efectos inmediatos de los terremotos son precisamente los deslizamientos de tierra tan abundantes en la isla de El Hierro. No se nos oculta el riesgo tsunamigénico que afecta a la isla, en caso de producirse un importante deslizamiento en las vertientes acantiladas que dan al mar y sobre los cuales ya hay modelos matemáticos avanzados..

..Continuous seismic activity in the vicinity of the island, threatening possible volcanic episodes, while the uncertainty of the event is very high and we don't even know when or where could arise. As I write these lines discussed in the news the earthquake of magnitude 4.9 that has occurred this noon and has been clearly felt by the population. There was an important detachment of slope with falling blocks and material disintegrated in the vicinity of Parsley well. One of the immediate effects of earthquakes are landslides so abundant in El Hierro island. Not hidden us risk tsunamigenico affecting the island, in the event of a major landslide in the steep slopes that already give the sea and about which there are advanced mathematical models...

of course advanced mathematical models is good. the bad thing is that for the exact calculations for any of these models always have a large number of accurate baseline data, which in most cases are either absent or very rough. so always maintained a very high degree of uncertainty
