The underwater ‘hotspot’ feeding La Palma’s volcano will create new islands

The magma flow that shaped Spain’s Canaries archipelago 20 million years ago continues to add landmass, while Fuerteventura and Lanzarote are destined to sink under the effects of erosion

E l National Geographic Institute (IGN) has been detected at the station closest to the eruptive centers of the volcano of La Palma one slight vertical deformation on the ground .

Carmen López, director of the IGN Geophysical Observatory, tells Efe that it is in no way comparable to the sudden deformation of 10 centimeters detected ten days ago, and that the scientists interpreted then as a possible indication of an increase in the lava channel or the opening or closing of some point of emission.

López speaks of a fluctuation that reflects that of the eruptive dynamics and indicates that it may perhaps be corrected in a future measurement.

As with the rest of the parameters, the also spokesperson for the scientific committee of the Canary Islands Volcanic Emergency Plan (Pevolca) asks to analyze trends, rather than stay with daily variations, unless they are especially significant, and today is not the case, at your discretion.

"One day it rises and another, it falls", synthesizes Carmen López.

In the stations furthest from the eruptive center, a slight deflation of the terrain is maintained, possibly related to deep seismicity, the IGN indicates in a statement.

In it, he details that the amplitude of the volcanic tremor signal has low average levels, but with intensification pulses.

The IGN counts 54 earthquakes located in the last 24 hours, of which seven have been felt by the population, one of which has a maximum intensity IV.

The highest magnitude, 4.5, took place at 00:05 hours at a depth of 35 kilometers and was felt with intensity IV on the island of La Palma.

Four tremors were located at depths around 30 kilometers, and the rest of the hypocenters were around 12 kilometers.

The measurement carried out early this Friday places the height of the volcano's ash cloud at 3,500 meters, with a south-southeast direction.

Elemental sulfur deposits appear for the first time. A reaction with H2S to form sulfur, would imply that the magmatic component of the gas is lowering and increasing the emission of H2S. This fact does NOT imply an end to the eruption, but a clear change in its dynamics.

05/11/2021 22:00h Canary Islands. - ERUPTION OF LA PALMA ISLAND. - DAY 48. - THE ERUPTION IS CHANGING AND THE VOLCANO IS THROWING A LOT OF LAVA . - SESMIC PROJECTOR'S - I just deleted a post that I had looked great before I left the computer, it's what computer science has, which sometimes plays you bad pasts, but here we go again with it.

The volcano follows its eruption, and it seems to be changing, incolcan shows us in its last post where you begin to see sprinkles of sulfur that show the presence of H2S or sulfhydric acid, well known to all for being the smell of "hue you rotten" and that's it see especially in the degasification ovens or a tightening on the ceilings of the lava pipes that the gas comes out and which are perfectly seen in this magnificent IGME video and that indicate that they are active.

The IGN has improved the graph of the tremor of the Enrique CENR mountain station is rising again in the last 24 hours and the same happens to the concentration of SO2 gases that has risen to 31300 tons daily and is visually visible in some blue fumes coming out of the cone or a yellowy atmosphere when the sun rises and you can see sky in the area of the Llanos de Aridane.

The seismicity in exchange is calmer and deformation rises slightly in the station near the eruption (2cm in LP03) and go two days (4-5cm in LP03 in two days) and varies little in others with little significant ups and downs.

The truth is that the emission of ashes goes by pulse and when these occur there are a large amount of ashes thrown that cover the sky, produce a dirty storm with lightning and the last is that to be a fine material and produce rain gives a quite a barrel uncomfortable, especially for health. Eyes, lungs have to be protected well, long sleeve clothes and eye to the hair, because atopic skin or irritations from this rain I don't rule them out either.

LAVA NECKLACE:

The truth that I am impressed by the amount of lava that is coming out and that it is reconducted to the coladas field very effectively in such a way that there are several points that draw my attention, in addition to this clear, the immediate area to the cone, which follows ac soaking up material, with more than 40m and with a network of lava canals and lava tubes impressive.

The first thing is a new lava flow with a lot of material going down the center over the Todoque area towards a large Kipuka or gap between the lava coladas with many houses left before the Todoque Mountain over the old coladas 2 and 5 and that is going to edge south another newer flow (call the flow 11) and that produced an overflow that reached the south flank of the 9A which is the laundry that boarded the north flank of the mountain of Todoke a few days ago.

Then there is another activity point more North, south of 9C and north of 9A about 400m south of where the SPAR supermarket was where another big laundry went down yesterday looked very good in this video and today has developed two arms in its final part.

Last to emphasize that I am concerned about the activity of a point with a lot of activity in the north of the Mountain Rajada, which goes down next to it and heads north of the Mountain of Cogote, to pass after very close to the edge where a poc the fear over the overflow of Colada 14 and that could develop a new arm south if not for that flow in the next few days and that could cut the current road that is used to go to the port of Naos (700m from the point) doing so in a few hours if it goes fast, in a couple of days if it goes 350-400m a day.

SESMIC PROJECTOR'S:

In the beginning there are three maximums that match the high tide (I say the moon has its influence), coincidence or not we have two patterns that match again at 36-37h and 84-99h (it's delayed a bit last time) giving the most likely hour the morning after the noon.

Well kind of, that's it. , what a day I'm having, I'm exhausted and things don't work out the way you want in the first place, but it's going well. I think I put almost everything there was before it deleted. More tomorrow and eye on the seismic forecast, the first high is in about two hours. Cheer up and a greeting. (Enrique)

Finish the map of where the lava moves today in a new flow 15 that goes above the old, through the middle of the coladas field towards Mount Todoque, and if I tell you the truth I do not know where it will surround it, I think that for the north. but at 60%, but I don't rule out the south that has 40%, so both are possible.

The north arm that has been divided into two was less active, and the south arm that was more active today is headed to the little left of Todoque and as I say then I do not know what it will do, I have put the two possibilities, once it is focused I should continue the arrows I marked towards the ocean. I leave you the thermal flight where you can see this flow in a great way. (Enrique)
