El Hierro (Canary Islands, Spain)

Point of La Orchilla with the lighthouse to the bottom. El Hierro (Canary Islands)

Volcano: El Hierro (see El Hierro at the Smithsonian Institution website in a new tab)
Type: Soil Diffuse Emission
Description: El Hierro Island experienced a seismic-volcanic crisis from July 2011 culminating with an underwater eruption on 12 October 2011. As no visible emanations occur at the surface environment of El Hierro, diffuse degassing studies have become the most useful geochemical tool to monitor the volcanic activity in this volcanic island.
