Seismic Trace of the Seismic station IT-ECNE in HHZ as the Etna shows a very imtense activity

Here the position of the seismograph on a map and a map of the craters of the Etna

Here coordinates again: 37.7653, 15.0018

my report (from the morning) with a video in two parts (total length 2:26) follows

The National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology, Etneo Observatory, announces that from the early hours of today (February 15), a gradual intensification of the explosive activity at the South-East Crater is observed.

While the activity is continuous at the eastern vents of the same crater, an intracratonic explosive activity also continues in the Bocca Nuova, Voragine, and Northeast craters.

With regard to the average amplitude of the volcanic tremor, this had already shown an increasing tendency from the early hours as of this morning.

As of this morning, a more significant increase has been recorded: the amplitude has reached high values ​​and has remained so until the current state. The source of the tremor is located below the SE Crater, at a depth of about 2900m.

The infrasonic activity appears to be high, both for the frequency of occurrence of infrasonic transients and for their amplitude.

According to media reports, there was an explosion on Tuesday evening (February 16) as well as the eruption of lava on the southeast side of the Etna volcano in Sicily. (1/2)

At times, the air traffic at Catania airport had to be stopped due to heavy ash development. There were no reports of damage or injury. (2/2)

This images displaing the traces relating to the temporal trend of the amplitude of the volcanic tremor recorded in the last 7 days, to some seismic stations of the INGV-OE permanent network located in the Etna area. (1/2)

At the ECPN station the RMS values ​​(in ordinate) are represented according to three levels of amplitude (low = green, medium = yellow, high = red). (2/2)
