Magnitude 5.9 Quake Hits​

​

​

Cascadia Subduction Zone

by Mitch Battros - Earth Changes ​

Original magnitude 5.9 earthquake, reduced to 5.3, jolted an area about 140 miles off the southern Oregon coast early Thursday morning. A USGS spokesman says there was no danger of a tsunami. The quake was felt by residents in southern Oregon and northern California.

​

Geophysicist Rafael Abreu, says the quake occurred
in an area of the Pacific where the Juan de Fuca Plate and the Pacific Plate, also known as the Cascadia Subduction Zone, are sliding past each other in a horizontal motion.

Event: Earthquake

Location: Canary-Islands (Esp.) Province of Las Palmas Agüimes
Number of Evacuated: 10000 person(s)

Situation:

Two new volcanic eruptions were confirmed on Wednesday off the south coast of the Canary Island of El Hierro. Nearly 600 people from the southernmost village, La Restinga, remained out of their homes Thursday after they were evacuated on Tuesday. Seismologists have found two separate fissures less than 2.3 miles and 1.7 miles from La Restinga. "I confirm the existence of two points of volcanic eruption at El Hierro," Laura Otero, a spokeswoman for the local authorities, told AFP. The first eruption occurred at a depth of 700 meters (2,300 feet) and the other at a depth of 200 meters (655 feet). Scientists from ING, CSIC, and the University of Cadiz are trying to determine if the subsea volcanic vent is widening and, if so, if it is widening in the direction of El Hierro.



Geophysicist Carmen Lopez confirmed that there is a single eruption with two points of emission of underwater nature, according to a press release issued on Wednesday.



Authorities detected a sulfur odor in the area and have also spotted numerous dead fish floating on the surface.



Scientists said the fish were likely killed by gas escaping from the subsea volcano. A spokesman for a volcanology institute, David Calvo, told Spanish National Radio on Thursday that while authorities remain vigilant, there was no cause for alarm.

Because the eruptions eased pressure in the area, further evacuations were unlikely. Several tourists along with the 570 residents of La Restinga were evacuated on Tuesday after a 4.3-magnitude quake the previous day. El Hierro, the smallest of the Canaries, has experienced over 10,000 earthquakes since July 19, a signal that magma is rising toward the Earth's surface. The volcanic eruption near El Hierro on Monday was Spain's first since the 1971 eruption of the Teneguia Volcano on the nearby island of La Palma.



Some took to message boards on Tuesday and Wednesday claiming that a landslide in the Canary Islands could cause a mega-tsunami that would devastate the Eastern Seaboard of the United States. An infamous BBC documentary "Horizon" explained that if earthquakes or volcanic eruptions struck La Palma -- just north of El Hierro -- there was a possibility that a large part of the island would slide into the ocean and trigger a huge tidal wave that could travel across the Atlantic in six hours. Findings by the scientists behind the claims have since been widely dismissed. Reports came in on Monday from crews aboard four separate ships that noticed the presence of dead fish floating on the surface. Pointing to "uncertainty over the coming days," authorities raised the warning level to "red alert" on Tuesday for La Restinga, while the rest of the island remained just below that on "yellow alert."

After Spain's Instituto Geographico Nacional (IGN) confirmed that an underwater eruption was occurring about three miles off the southern coast, local authorities summoned everyone in the area to a local football field on Tuesday and announced that they would evacuate the residents and tourists in La Restinga because of the risk of another eruption closer to the coast. "Facing a change in the seismic event that is affecting El Hierro Island, and as a preventative measure, we are carrying out the relocation of the population of La Restinga," a local government spokesman said in a statement. La Restinga is the southernmost town in the Canaries. Most of the evacuees found refuge with friend and relatives in other villages, though dozens of others, mostly tourists, spent Tuesday and Wednesday evenings in a student dormitory and a local gym. 78 people are in shelters, 31 of which are tourists, according to Typically Spanish News. In a press release issued on Wednesday, the Canary Islands government said that although no specific changes have been observed since Tuesday evening, precautions remain in effect:

"Among the security measures to ensure the safety of the population remains the designation by the Maritime Authority of Santa Cruz de Tenerife maritime exclusion zone which is closed to shipping, fishing, diving, sports or recreation in the area within a radius of four nautical miles from the tip of La Restinga." Ferry crossings to the island also remain suspended. People were, however, allowed to return to their homes on Wednesday under the protection of civil safety officials to retrieve medicines, clothing, and other necessities. El Hierro, which means iron is Spanish, was designated by UNESCO as a Biosphere Reserve in 2000 with 60% of its territory protected. Although over 200 years have elapsed since the last eruption, El Hierro has the largest number of volcanoes in the Canaries with over 500 open sky cones, another 300 covered by the most recent outflows, and some 70 caves and volcanic galleries. El Hiero is home to roughly 11,000 residents. It is currently the most volcanically active of the Canaries.

The earthquake occurred at 13h local time. At this time a day, more people are at work and therefore more vulnerable to collapsing office buildings. During traffic hours, people can be affected by collapsing bridges and other road infrastructure.
Resilience and Vulnerability

Resilience is the capacity of the population to cope with a hazard. Since much of investments in earthquake preparedness and available funds for quick response is related to household income, the GDP per capita can be used as a rough indicator of resilience.
Papua New Guinea has a GDP per capita of 1007 PPP$ (Parity Purchasing Power Dollar, about 1 Euro) and is therefore part of the low level income countries. Therefore, the earthquake happened in an area of low resilience.
Based on the combination of 9 indicators, ECHO attributes Papua New Guinea a medium vulnerability.

Key: Bad - Medium - Good - No data</td></tr></tbody></table>Secondary effects

Probability of secondary effects:

• Landslides: The maximum slope in the area of the earthquake is 52.598% and the maximum altitude is 3631 m. Since this is a medium slope, the risk of earthquake induced landslides is medium. Note, however, that the slope data is not reliable on a local scale, while landslides depend very much on local topography, soil and meteorological conditions.
• Nuclear power plants: There are no nuclear facilities nearby the epicenter.
• Hydrodams: There are no hydrodam facilities nearby the epicenter.

Event: Earthquake
Location: Canary-Islands (Esp.) Province of Las Palmas Agüimes Number of Evacuated: 10000 person(s)


Situation: A volcano under the sea erupted Saturday off Hierro, in the Spanish Canary Islands, the latest eruption in three months of seismic activity in the region, local officials said. The eruption released gas and threw up fragments of smoking lava some 2.5 kilometres (1.5 miles) off the coast, said island officials, adding that scientists had identified it as an underwater eruption. An eruption on Monday five kilometres off the coast was detected about a kilometre down in the sea. On Wednesday, the surface of the sea off the island changed colour. Locals reported a strong smell of sulphur and found dead fish floating in the water. The island of Hierro, which has about 10,000 inhabitants, has been on red alert, the highest level since a series of eruptions and tremors that began in July.



Event: Earthquake
Location: Canary-Islands (Esp.) Province of Las Palmas Agüimes
Number of Evacuated: 10000 person(s)


Situation: Spanish authorities say activity by an underwater volcano has led them to close access to a port on El Hierro island.



Ships have been ordered away from waters around La Restinga and aircraft have been banned from flying over the island's southern tip. The port's 600 residents were evacuated Tuesday after volcanic activity began. The regional government of the Canary Islands says scientists have detected airborne volcanic fragments called pyroclasts rising from the sea off La Restinga. The government said it awaited scientific reports on the danger posed by pyroclasts, but a research vessel that was collecting samples there has been ordered to desist. TV channel La Sexta reported Saturday that journalists also have been told to clear the area.

-----

The ongoing submarine eruption south of El Hierro, the first eruption in the Canaries in 40 years, continues from probably 2 vents at depths below 250 m under the water surface. It seems that the eruption is the submarine equivalent of a typical fissure eruption as often observed on basaltic shield volcanoes. Above the vents, large plumes of discolored water are visible and can be detected even on satellite images from space. A strong odour of sulfur can be detected on land. The port town of La Restinga has been evacuated and ships and aircraft are now banned from the area. Unless the eruption proceeds to shallower levels from about less than 50-60 m water depth, either by the accumulation of volcanic material above the vents, or by a upward propagation of the eruption fissure towards the coast, it is unlikely that the activity will become dangerous for the coastal areas. Should the eruption proceed to shallower levels, however, the risk of explosive eruptions increases drastically as the water pressure to contain explosions becomes too low.

Event: Earthquake
Location: Canary-Islands (Esp.) Province of Las Palmas Agüimes Number of Evacuated: 10000 person(s)

Situation:

1. The Canary Island Government has lifted the alert level on the island of El Hierro to Red Level One after gases and magma confirmed that there is a volcanic eruption taking plce 2.5 kms. offshore. All access to the town and port of La Restinga has been closed, the scientific boat which was analysing the water has left the area, and a no-fly zone has been introduced. There is now no doubt that there is an active volcano 2.5 kms. off shore and that magma was escaping from a depth of some 900m. Despite the red alert the President of El Hierro, Alpidio Armas, issued a message of calm and said that there was no risk to the population. The 600 or so residents of La Restinga were evacuated from their homes last Tuesday.

2. An underwater eruption which kicked off on Monday at two-and-a-half kilometres from the coast of El Hierro is now said to be in waters of less than 150 metres in depth. Experts say that when the eruption reaches its full force, white columns of vapour will be seen from far and wide. The volcanic 'stain' on the surface of the water is now bigger than the island itself, and residents in the village of La Restinga are currently being evacuated as a precaution. But once they are moved away from the area, it is not thought that any other inhabitants will be at risk. No further evacuations are expected as yet, says the head of safety and emergencies in the Canary Islands' regional goverment, Juan Santana. Boats, helicopters and planes have been banned from the area, as the government cannot guarantee their safety.





Situation Update No. 29

Event: Earthquake
Location: Canary-Islands (Esp.) Province of Las Palmas Agüimes
Number of Evacuated: 10000 person(s)

Situation:

Two ships are being sent into the zone to the south of the Canary Island of El Hierro where slicks and gases have been formed by underwater volcanic eruptions. One vessel is from the Marine Science Institute, and the other is from the Spanish Oceanographic Institute. Both will analyse the water and detect the presence of gases, and the smell of Sulphur and presence of dead fish are evidence of volcanic activity. Meanwhile the earthquakes have also been continuing on the island with as many as seven tremors occurring Thursday morning, one of them 2.1 on the Richter scale. Sources in the El Hierro Cabildo government have said the population is quite and serene, and consider that the eruptions taking place at sea has eased the pressure of the magma. Local residents of the nearest village, La Restinga, have been evacuated to family or friends homes elsewhere on the island, or to the municipal sports hall in Valverde.
