The National Geographic Institute (IGN) has detected a significant surge in seismic activity under Teide, registering one hundred micro-earthquakes in less than 24 hours.

This reactivation of seismicity has put observers and scientists monitoring the volcano's status on alert. The figure of one hundred events detected in such a short period is noteworthy and has led to intensified surveillance.
Although most of these movements are of very low magnitude, their accumulation in less than a day underscores the importance of closely following the geological evolution of the area. Teide is a volcanic complex that requires constant monitoring to ensure safety.

Seismic activity under Teide is reactivated: the IGN detects one hundred micro-earthquakes in less than 24 hours

This increase in seismic activity occurs in a context of general interest in natural phenomena, following powerful earthquakes registered in Venezuela that have caused casualties and injuries, and as volcanic activity is monitored globally.
