Overview
- The national seismic service (IGN) reports ongoing small earthquakes and seismic pulses beneath the west–southwest sector of Las Cañadas del Teide at stable depths of about 10 to 12 kilometers.
- A continuous low‑frequency vibration lasted roughly 90 minutes on Monday and recurred on Wednesday for about 10 minutes in the early morning, according to officials.
- Since February 7 more than 260 small quakes have been located in the area, including around 90 events over the weekend, with counts varying due to overlapping signals.
- Pevolca convened an extraordinary meeting as IGN moves to add new stations in Tenerife and refine automated signal analysis to strengthen real‑time surveillance.
- Scientists say there are no indicators of an eruption in the short to medium term, noting ongoing island deformation of about 2 centimeters since 2023 and elevated CO2 fluxes observed since 2016.
