SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, Dec. 9 (EUROPA PRESS) –

The La Palma volcano will continue to emit gases even after the eruption is terminated and it stops emitting lava to the surface, according to the director of the National Geographic Institute (IGN) in the Canary Islands and spokesperson for the Pevolca Scientific Committee, María José Blanco.

At the daily press conference after the Pevolca Steering Committee meeting, María José Blanco recalled that in the eruption of the Tagoro volcano, the tremor signal reached very low levels in the second half of February and the eruption occurred It was finished on March 5, but the building continued with degassing months later.

The Scientific Committee spokesperson indicated that this “will also be the case” in the La Palma volcano, which means that after the lava emission ends, degassing will continue not only in the main and secondary cone, but also in washes, which continue to emit gases for a certain time.

Therefore, he stressed that the civil protection measures to be taken will not immediately disappear with the termination of the emission of lava on the surface, since the emergency will last longer, once the volcanic eruption is over.

Regarding the evolution of the eruption, María José Blanco reported that from the effusive focus located to the west of the main cone, the lava flows through a volcanic tube, which has several jameos, from which two streams depart that move west over previous casts. The most active, which converged on the stream that emerged west of the Cogote Mountain (currently inactive), continues on the latter, falling on the lower island in the Las Hoyas area.

Several emission centers are active in the southeastern zone of the main cone, with sporadic pulses of strombolian activity and ash emission. The cracks and fractures in the upper part of the secondary cone have gradually modified its morphology, producing small landslides towards its interior and adjacent craters.
