(Eagle News)–The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology on Wednesday, May 6, reported ten volcanic earthquakes at Taal in a 24-hour period. PHIVOLCS said the earthquakes at the volcano, which remains on alert level 1, were associated “mainly with rock-fracturing processes beneath and around the edifice.” Weak steaming was also observed from vents on the main crater and from fissure vents along the Daang Kastila Trail. According to PHIVOLCS, it is still closely monitoring Taal’s […]
(Eagle News)–Thirteen volcanic earthquakes were recorded in a span of 24 hours at Taal, which remains on alert level 1. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the quakes were “associated mainly with rock-fracturing processes beneath and around the edifice.” PHIVOLCS said weak steaming was also observed from vents on the main crater and from fissure vents along the Daang Kastila trail. PHIVOLCS said it continues to monitor Taal volcano’s activity. On Sunday, PHIVOLCS […]
(Eagle News)–The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology has monitored volcanic earthquakes at Taal, which remains on alert level 2. In its latest advisory, PHIVOLCS said the Taal Volcano Network recorded 45 volcanic earthquakes “associated with rock fracturing processes beneath and around the edifice.” Activity in the main crater in the past 24 hours has also been characterized by “weak emission of steam-laden plumes rising 50 meters high.” According to PHIVOLCS, “sudden steam-driven or phreatic […]
(Eagle News)–An alert level 2 remains hoisted over Taal. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said activity in the main crater in the past 24 hours has been characterized by a “weak emission of steam-laden plumes rising 50 to100 meters high.” The Taal Volcano Network, PHIVOLCS said, recorded 45 volcanic earthquakes that are “associated with magmatic processes beneath the edifice.” Two of these events were felt at 7:37 p.m. and 7:51 p.m. at Intensity […]
(Eagle News)–An alert level 2 remains hoisted over Taal on Saturday, Feb. 22. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said activity in the main crater in the past 24 hours has been characterized by “weak emission of steam-laden plumes rising 50-100 meters high.” The Taal Volcano Network recorded 29 volcanic earthquakes that are “associated with rock fracturing processes beneath and around the edifice.” PHIVOLCS reminded the public that “sudden steam-driven or phreatic explosions, volcanic […]
(Eagle News)–Alert level 2 remains hoisted over Taal today. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said activity in the main crater in the past 24 hours has been characterized by weak emission of steam-laden plumes rising 50 to 100 meters high. Sulfur dioxide emission was below instrumental detection due to weak plume activity. PHIVOLCS said the Taal Volcano Network recorded 77 volcanic earthquakes,which could mean magmatic activity beneath the Taal edifice that could lead […]
(Eagle News)–An alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal as its steam emissions and seismic activity continue. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said activity in the main crater in the past 24 hours has been characterized by weak emission of steam-laden plumes rising 50 to 100 meters high. Sulfur dioxide emission was measured at an average of 67 tons per day on February 11. PHIVOLCS said Taal Volcano Network recorded 101 volcanic earthquakes […]
(Eagle News)-An alert level 4 remains hoisted over Taal volcano as it continued to emit steam and registered infrequent weak explosions that generated white to dirty white ash plumes 500 to 1000 meters tall. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said sulfur dioxide emission was at an average of 4353 tons per day. The Philippine Seismic Network also plotted a total of 714 volcanic earthquakes since January 12, 1 p.m. Of these, 176 registered at […]
(Eagle News)–Taal remains on alert level 4 as it continues to weakly emit steam-laden plumes 300 to 500 meters high since this morning. In its recent advisory, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the Philippine Seismic Network has also recorded 701 volcanic earthquakes since 1 p.m. of January 12. Of these, 176 were felt with intensities ranging from Intensity I to V. Since 5 a.m. to 4 p.m. today, there were ten volcanic […]
