The eruption continues to show a mixed strombolian mechanism, with explosive phases producing pyroclastics deposits and more effusive phases producing lava flows, as well as pulses of phreatomagmatic activity. There are multiple active strombolian vents in the main cone, with a lava emission vent being...
ue to the continued ashfall and low-level temperatures inversion causing poor air quality with respect to PM10 on the western side of the island, PEVOLCA have maintained the suspension of schooling in El Paso, Los Llanos de Aridane, Tazacorte, Puntagorda and Tijarafe. They will also...
Due to the increased ashfall in the north and west of the island with the increased ash emission, which was especially bad in Los Llanos de Aridane, new recommendations were brought in for the town. These are separate from the current lighter recommendations also in...
In the last 24-48 hours, an intensification has been observed in the eruptive process with increased rates of emission of lava from the NW flank of the main cone, as well as periods of more intense explosive activity and ash emission accompanied with audible explosions...
The lava emission centre on the northwest flank of the main cone continues to feed a branched stream, with one branched travelling west, and another travelling southwest. The most fluid of these flows is the latter, which has exceeded fronts of the original flows and...
To counter potential road disruption from the influx of tourists the weekend for All Saints’ Day on the 1st November, the authorities have launched a shuttle bus service from Breña Baja on the east of the island to the area of the eruption for tourists....
The lava emission predominantly feeds three different lava streams, with two of these affecting new ground. One of these is the flow to the south of La Laguna Mountain, which is now 86 m from the cliffs, and the other affecting new ground to the...
According to PEVOLCA, the more ‘favourable’ scenario regarding the paths of lava flows remains, as they are now largely directed west of the volcano and across previous flows. This is causing a widening and thickening of the flows, but only a small amount of already...
According to PEVOLCA, the latest reconfigurations and partial collapses have produced a more ‘favourable’ scenario regarding the paths of lava flows, as they are now largely directed west of the volcano and across previous flows. This is causing a widening and thickening of the flows,...
The reconfiguration of the cone continues, with large amounts of lava being emitted, on the new stream to the south of the lava flow field, on top of the original lava flow, and on the stream that runs to the north of Todoque mountain. Some...
