Eritrea Nabro volcano eruption : seismic activity continues below Nabro
Last update: September 14, 2011 at 11:00 am by By Armand Vervaeck and James Daniell
Nabro is an Eritrean volcano with NO historic eruption record
UPDATE 14/09 – 10:16 UTC :
OGA, the Djibouti Seismological Agency reports renewed seismic activity below the Nabro volcano. Seismic activity does not mean necessarily that the volcano will erupt again (we see nothing unusual – nor visual or infrared).
The picture below shows the tremors which occurred between September 9 and September 11.
3 of the 4 quakes are too deep to be related to an eventual upcoming eruption.
The seismic activity continued now and then since the volcano calmed down several weeks ago.
The magnitude 4.3 struck below the volcano on the 10th of September.
