(Eagle News) — Over 200 volcanic earthquakes were monitored at Taal in 24 hours. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology as a result said the unrest at the volcano “has been elevating” and is constantly being evaluated, even as the alert level 2 over the volcano stays. PHIVOLCS noted that the 268 volcanic earthquakes monitored at the volcano included 243 episodes of volcanic tremor with durations of one to eight minutes, and 25 low-frequency […]
(Eagle News) — Over 200 volcanic earthquakes were monitored at Taal in 24 hours. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the 259 volcanic earthquakes monitored at the volcano, which remains on alert level 2, included 236 episodes of volcanic tremor with durations of one to 22 minutes, and four hybrid earthquakes. The total number of volcanic earthquakes monitored in a span of 24 hours is higher than the 102 volcanic earthquakes and 87 […]
(Eagle News)– Over 100 volcanic earthquakes were monitored at Taal in 24 hours. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the 102 volcanic quakes at the volcano, which remains on alert level 2, included 87 episodes of volcanic tremor with durations of one to eight minutes. Activity at the main crater, PHIVOLCS said, consisted of a weak emission of steam-laden plumes. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) emission also averaged 1,013 tons yesterday, March 22. “Temperature highs […]
(Eagle News) — The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology has monitored almost 200 volcanic earthquakes in 24 hours. PHIVOLCS said the 193 volcanic quakes at the volcano, which remains on alert level 2, included 156 episodes of volcanic tremor with durations of one 15 minutes. PHIVOLCS said a weak emission of steam-laden plumes was also observed at the main crater, while sulfur dioxide emission averaged 830 tons on March 20. “Temperature highs of 71.8°C […]

(Eagle News) — Fifty-five volcanic earthquakes were monitored at Taal in 24 hours. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the quakes at the volcano, which remains on alert level 2, included 49 episodes of volcanic tremor with durations of one to 2.5 minutes. “At 2:11 PM yesterday, a short-lived 400-500 meter-tall white plume was generated by a burst of steam-rich gas from the Main Crater that lasted 2.5 minutes based on seismic records,” […]
(Eagle News) — Forty-two volcanic tremor episodes were monitored at Taal in 24 hours. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the tremor episodes at the volcano, which remains on alert level 2, lasted for one to seven minutes. Low-level background volcanic tremor that began at 6:37 p.m. on March 10 lasted for approximately four and a half hours, PHIVOLCS said. It said also monitored were steam and sulfur dioxide emissions. The steam emission, […]
(Eagle News) — The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) has raised the alert level over Taal. In an advisory on Tuesday, March 9, PHIVOLCS said the raising of the alert level from alert level 1 to 2 was because the volcano has been exhibiting increased unrest since Feb. 13. For instance, PHIVOLCS said the Taal Volcano Network (TVN) recorded a total of twenty-eight volcanic tremor episodes, four low-frequency volcanic earthquakes, and one hybrid […]
(Eagle News) — Over 100 tremor episodes were monitored at Taal in 24 hours. Apart from the 130 volcanic tremors that lasted from one to five minutes, 28 volcanic earthquakes were monitored at the volcano, which remains on alert level 1. “Despite these, only weak steam-laden plumes were emitted by fumarolic activity at the vents of the main crater,” PHIVOLCS said. PHIVOLCS said temperature highs of 74.6°C and a pH of 1.59 were last measured […]
