Since Thursday morning, more than a hundred seismic events have been recorded, 24 of which have been located. The majority of these earthquakes have been concentrated in the western area of Las Cañadas del Teide, primarily affecting the municipalities of Guía de Isora and Vilaflor de Chasna.
The epicenters are situated at depths between 10 and 16 kilometers below sea level. The maximum magnitude recorded was 2 on the Richter Scale, meaning these events were not felt by the population.
The IGN has detailed that different types of seismic signals have been detected, with hybrid events predominating, alongside volcano-tectonic and low-frequency tremors. These signals are compatible with the circulation and interaction of magmatic fluids at depth.
“"The signal is compatible with the “circulation and interaction of magmatic fluids at depth”."
IGN authorities emphasize that this episode is similar to others recorded in previous months and does not currently indicate an increased eruptive risk in the short or medium term. Surveillance on the island is continuous, with over 100 stations and equipment dedicated to real-time monitoring of volcanic activity. The data provided is provisional and subject to potential updates.
