Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: When the bible references the "lake of fire"...not hard to imagine it's source...wow... Without that lake of fire, nothing in the way of metals and minerals would be in our grasp to utilize. It's all brought to the surface via eruption, as are many agricultural nutrients. No shit? From like, Volcanoes? Amazing, aren't it? |

Uhhh- something changed. The extra vents are silent and there’s some new accumulation at the bottom of this flow

View Quote There are two areas of gas clouds in your photo. If I correctly interpreted the angles from the feed I mentioned, the new vent was trying to open between them - downslope of the cone. I think it failed, though. |

Wow if you sit and watch now there are upwards of 5-6 separate vents spewing back behind the large vent in the front. This thing just continues to grow and amaze!

4cm uplift at the station immediately in the vicinity of the vent, to its east.

Watching the feed this morning and there appears to be a small vent opened down low on the slope of the mountain. It looked like something burning at first, but I think it's coming from the ground.

Any Spanish speakers in thread who can mine a site or two for us?
ITER.ES is a facilitator of the Canary Islands Geochemical Network. They have several stations on La Palma; I'm interested in seeing the feed from LPA07 - which is a multi-spectra setup. ULL (a research partner of theirs) has staff on site doing health and welfare work as well as studies of the eruption. A gas composition by percentage and time graph would be a right handy thing to have. Both of those sites are mentioned on INVOLCAN, which Teh Googles translates well. |

After it's done flowing, wonder how long it takes the lava to cool so that they can start using heavy equipment to make roads and useable land.

Seriously. People have said, what happens if it doesn't stop erupting? Well, you get to wait. End of story. It isn't like you can put it out like, MAYBE, a wildland fire. Hopes and dreams are not worth shit. |

4.4 earthquake earlier today.

Do we know how much elevation this volcano has gained since it began?

Damn that thing has changed a lot in the last 24 hours. View is completely different now.

Where's the new vent in relation to the lava channel? |
|
Something very odd going on with a pool of lava at the bottom of the stream. It's now turning into a strange mound looking like it's about to erupt underneath. If not lava has suddenly started running up hill!

Quoted: It was in the channel from what I could see. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Where's the new vent in relation to the lava channel? It was in the channel from what I could see. I saw one on the slope the other night. Somewhat related news: Keep watching the GPS stations LP03 and LP04 for uplift. One of the research groups just posted a synopsis (summarized on Volcanodiscovery) of the quake series at depth under the island. Their analysis jives with a number of others, given that new harmonic tremors have been detected. Magma is moving and possibly being injected into the upper plumbing. GPS data will confirm if inflation is occurring, due to charging of the upper chamber. The big question: Are the existing vents enough to handle a new influx, or will additional ones open...and where? |

For you Facebook folks, look up posts from VolcanesyScienciaHoy. Get 'em while they last.
He's ripping IGN and the Canary equivalent of La Guardia Civil a new asshole that's as wide as the caldera sited to the north of the eruptive center. |
|
For anyone not looking at the feed right now, it's a veritable Roller Coaster of Lava. Lots of hills and dales in the stream.
|
|
That lower vent is really putting out some lava now!
ETA starting at about the 18:22 mark on the stream. |
|
Anyone else notice the huge spike in SO2 output from yesterday? 7kt/day to 17kt/day...
|
|
The amount of lava on the slopes looks amazing right now

Looking at data for the GPS stations nearest the eruptive center and either side of the ridge...that area is beginning to bulge, while the southern part of the island shows a slight recession.

View Quote Not a geologist but in my far from expert opinion that makes sense. The uppermost magma chamber is supposedly wide and flat. The ongoing eruption is probably melting a wider and more direct path towards the eruption site, increasing pressure and volume there and drawing magma away from the outer edges of the pancake. |

Filmed at La Palma dusk today, so a couple hours old, but it shows a perspective I haven't seen.

Also implies injection of magma from deeper in the system. That's why I'd like to get a look at He3 levels from around the area. Presence of it is an indicator of material coming from deep in the athenosphere. |

Looks like the top vents have fizzled at the moment. BUT- what’s that bright spot down at the bottom left? Is that a new vent trying to form under all that lava? If so wouldn’t that really put that whole slope at risk of collapsing if the top vents suddenly empty out?
