Luca D'Auria, director of the Volcanic Surveillance Area at the Canary Islands Volcanological Institute (INVOLCAN), has stated that since 2016, anomalous seismic activity and an increase in gas emissions have been recorded in Tenerife. This has alarmed the scientific community, although the recent earthquakes are small.
According to D'Auria, the probability of an eruption this year is about 2%, within the next 5 years it reaches 40%, while within 100 years it exceeds 90%, writes A2 CNN.
Particular attention is being paid to El Teide, Spain's highest mountain (3,715 m), which last erupted in 1909.
Experts point out that the longer it remains inactive, the greater the likelihood of new volcanic activity. The National Geographic Institute (IGN) is closely monitoring seismic activity across Spain, with a particular focus on volcanic areas. (A2 Televizion)
