Warning in the Canary Islands when Tenerife came from an “emergency drill” | The world

Authorities in the city in Tenerife have announced an “emergency drill” to prepare the locals before the Tade Mountain is turned.

The residents of Garachiko are asked to take part in a weekly drill in September to prepare them for the potential eruption of the volcano.

Rosa Davil, President Tenerife, Cablio said that this step was to provide plans and well-greased when the historic volcano eventually explodes. At the recent press conference, Ms. Davil emphasized that there were no signs of eruption in the short and medium term.

She announced that the agency would also increase the monitoring efforts around Teide to improve their chances of finding eruptions at the beginning. She said: “Science is our greatest ally. Our advanced monitoring network guarantees that any significant changes in volcanic changes will be detected in time to take the necessary precautions.”

The Volcanological Institute of the Canary Islands (attracts), the National Geographic Institute (IGN) and the Spanish Geological and Mining Institute (IGME), as they say, are constantly monitored by a volcano, which last exploded in 1909.

Ms. Davil said that advanced marginal level detection systems exist and can quickly respond to underground changes. Garachiko was chosen because he felt the full eruption in 1706.

The drill will control the EU-Modex project that promotes learning to natural disasters in Europe. The Spanish army and the military department of emergency situations are involved.

Teams from Romania, Italy, Sweden, Austria and Ireland are attended. The drill will last a week and see that the authorities warn the residents about the risks of the explosion of the volcanic explosion and how to evacuate safely.

Ms. Davil said that forcing residents to get involved was important and would be reacting to emergencies to get a useful practice to prepare them for a real thing.

Mount Teid exploded in 1492, 1706 and again in 1798. The last famous Erupton was in 1909. From the ventilation opening of the El -Tychyaero on the Santiago ridge. The explosion of 1706 destroyed the city and the main port of Garachiko, as well as several smaller villages.

In 2021, a Kumbre Bia Volcano exploded on the Canary Island of LA -Palm and saw 7,000 people evacuated from their homes. It was the first eruption on the island since 1971 and longestly fixed on the island, lasted 85 days and destroyed 3000 real estate.

Last May, the study revealed a volcano of magma under it much larger than it was thought before. The study was headed by the Volcanological Institute of the Canary Islands (attracts) and the environment of the Institute of Technology and Renewable Energy (Iter) together with the University of Madrid Pustoense.

The main method of research was the use of a receiver – a method that allows you to study seismic waves generated by eruptions to make the structure of the earth’s crust and upper mantle to a depth of 31 miles (50 kilometers).

Using this method, the researchers were able to distinguish the speeds of seismic waves at a depth, which allowed the identification of various geological layers that make up the volcano.
