Etna, an active volcano / Etna, un volcán en erupción



British versión

Some days ago, Etna, the most active volcano in Europe, woke up again... You can watch more photos on this link. But this is not the first time we speak about natural hazards in this blog, do you remember the submarine volcano near Canary islands?
 
And speaking of volcanoes and earthquakes ... you can earn extra positive today if you answer the following questions:

  1. What is the name of the most famous volcano in the Canary Islands? In which island is it located?
  2. What is the Richter scale?
  3. According to this scale, from what magnitude can be the population in a real danger?
 
 
Versión española
 
Erupción en el Nuevo Cráter del sureste del volcán Etna el día 17 de noviembre. El Etna, situado en la isla italiana de Sicilia es el volcán más activo de Europa. Podéis ver más fotos en este enlace. Pero ésta no es la primera vez que hablamos de desastres naturales en este blog, ¿Recordáis el volcán submarino localizado cerca de las islas Canarias?
 
 
Y ya que hablamos de volcanes y terremotos... os podéis ganar un positivo extra hoy si contestáis las siguientes preguntas:

  1. ¿Cómo se llama el volcán más famoso de Canarias? ¿En qué isla se encuentra?
  2. ¿Qué es la escala de Richter?
  3. Según dicha escala, ¿a partir de qué magnitud empieza a existir riesgo grave para la población?

1. El Teide es un volcán situado en la isla de Tenerife.
2. La escala sismológica de Richter (también se conoce como escala de magnitud local) es una escala logarítmica que asigna un número que se usa para determinar el efecto de un terremoto. Su nombre proviene de su inventor, el estadounidense y sismólogo Charles Richter.
3.A partir de esta cifra se notan más:
6,0-6,9 Fuerte. Pueden llegar a destruir áreas pobladas, en hasta unos 160 kilómetros a la redonda. 120 por año.

7,0-7,9 Mayor .Puede causar serios daños en extensas zonas. 18 por año.

8,0-8,9 Gran. Puede causar graves daños en zonas de varios cientos de kilómetros. 1-3 por año.

9,0-9,9 Devastadores. en zonas de varios miles de kilómetros.
1-2 en 20 años.

1. The name of the most famous volcano in the Canary island is Teide . He is located in Tenerife.

2.The Richter magnitude scale is a scale of numbers used to tell the size of earthquakes . His scale was based on the seismogram measured by a particular type of seismometer at a distance of 100 kilometres from the earthquake.

3.Ithink that in the Richter scale 4-4.9 this will cause damage around the epicenter; it is the same as a small fusion bomb

1-Teide
1.1- Tenerife
2-The richter scale was developed to assign a number to quantify the energy released during an earthquake
3- From 6.-6.9

-Teide.In Canarias.-Ritcher scale is a scale of numbers used to tell the size of earthquakes.-Earthquakes measuring more than 6.0 can cause significat damage.
