The eruption is ongoing and so today was the slick the bubbles are very visible from the coast
Restinga fishermen have decided to pull all the ships were in port for now know that there is no fishing.
the sea was not in good condition but they do not want to wait in case the volcano get worse.
scientific ship today have also to come to take samples.
geologists studying ground invisible gases emitted by the volcano as for example carbon dioxide
more carbon dioxide mean more magma
with this equipment that has a CO2 infrared sensor we measured the invisible co2 out of the soil
Geologist say that the increase in carbon dioxide get started last year.
have started in 2010 as a result of movement of magma in the upper mantle from a seismic movement.
But geologists also monitor other gases.
with this probe also measured helium because like CO2 does not dissolve in the magma and submerge to the surface.
what more is expected in the island is the oceanographic ship that will allow to take underwater images of the eruption.
what is certain is that the stain of magma lowered the pH of the sea.
