Tirelessly updating Avalon on the El Hierro eruption.

Strongest so far (no data):

The continuously changing scales keeps compressing the earlier graphs to the bottom and to the left!

How it's looking like now from Las Puntas de La Frontera:

Following the count of EQs as shown by the red bars (≥ 2.0) there definitely is a subsiding of the overall activity as the trend continues:

As for the location of the most recent EQs (red dots), they remain in the El Julan Sea of Calm:

Serious reduction in number of tremors as well as intensity (magnitude) for the past day.

The total amount of events since July sits at 9942 (cumulated energy graph, top left)... 58 to the 10,000 mark!

Poly gets around, Zo.

[Hervé]

At 4:16... rumblings with no jolts... interesting.

Now it's getting weird!

[Hervé]

Well... folks... something's afoot!




First time an event is recorded to the North of El Hierro, right before the rumblings started or may be 4:11 am GMT was the start of the rumblings?

[Hervé]

Now, that's a very long sustained whistling! (see seismograms a top of this page)

Since there are no trains nor railways on El Hierro... something is continuously blowing through a bass organ pipe... unless someone started a diesel generator next to the seismograph station?

[sygh]

This is weird. So prolonged. So intense. I don't like the looks of this. Zo, I'm not changing the subject, moreover, I'm adding something to the mix... I don't like the looks of so many mass animal deaths either. Were you aware of the fact that krill is dying of at an alarming rate?

I can put two and two together. Can you hear what I'm thinking?

Let me edit my thought. Serious earth changes.

[Hervé]

No denying serious earth changes are occurring.

However, in this case, unless a diesel generator next to the station, it would indicate an eruption is on its way to the surface; since the "whistling" is heard neither at La Gomera nor at La Palma.

Another bass organ pipe. Another odd noise.

Yeah, I just read your last post. I'm thinking the same thing. Looks like Poly may have found an outlet. It's not north of El Hierro, is it?

I don't want to leave but I've got to get some sleep. Long day tomorrow. I'll check with ya first thing in the later A.M.

Magma flowing close to surface? Let's hope it's only flowing and not expoloding.

[Hervé]

No idea if it's magma or steam, all it shows is that it's continuously sustained and not explosive (no EQs).

No data from IGN on location yet.

[Hervé]

I wish I had a sample of the Anak Krakatau seismograms with 6000 to 7000 tremors/day preceding the eruption to compare the above to...


Edit: I don't know how they managed to extricate an event at 5:47 GMT out of that soup?



Edit: Weather webcam at Las Puntas... overloaded... too many users connected.

[Hervé]

Here is another way of looking at the above "soup":

Where the vertical streaks are "events" out of the frequency soup. Still no data on what that "soup" is, excepted it's very low frequencies.

[sygh]

Counting all of the tremors, it looks like a corredor running north to south, straight across the foot of El Hierro.

[avid]

That colourful chart looks like a HAARP induction magnetometer reading! Very low frequencies prior to 'high activity'.

I think this may have broken through underwater.

El Hierro registra una erupción submarina a 7 kilómetros de la costa

Update 10/10 – 11:59 UTC : A group of scientists equipped with special cameras is currently flying over the Las Calmas see to check whether the eruption did happen. As stated in the Important Update below, the news of the eruption comes from 4 ships and is not official as yet.

IMPORTANT UPDATE : Following the Spanish Newspaper El Mundo, a small submarine eruption has taken place 7 km out of the coast. The eruption occurred at 1200 meter below sea level. The eruption took place in the Las Calmas sea to the south of the island at 10.43 local time (09:43 UTC). We expect an official statement soon.
The news comes from 4 boats presently navigating in the Las Calmas sea.

Update 10/10 – 07:43 UTC : Less than an hour ago, Geolurking, a nickname for a dedicated volcano follower, has published a very interesting 3-D plot he made of the tremors so far beneath El Hierro. The video shows the depth of the hypocenters and the magnitude (colors). link

Dr Bill Deagle interviewed John Moore on his Nutrimedical Report radio show (30 Sept, hour 3).

John Moore reported that he'd heard from a private source that El Hierro would "cut loose" (i.e. there would be a major eruption or earthquake) in 7-10 days -- "not weeks or months". According to his source, that would of course be round about now.
