So much packed into a 4 minute video. As is often the case, I find myself pausing the video to go back and check on maps or geologic info. Fabulous stuff.
Yep, went there a few years back, well worth a visit, theres a lot of small pockets of ground where the heat is really intense. They cook food like roast chicken on one of these pockets at the resturant near the top of a crater.
Ooh, roasting chicken on those sounds fun. I’d hope that geothermal power plants are common on the island, as I didn’t check what the islands power source was
@@GeologyHub Nope. Mostly diesel oil generators and increasingly wind power. Some scientists have been trying out surface thermoelectric generators, but I doubt they could produce any meaningful amount of power. Being a national park, there are huge hurdles to allow any sort of drilling and construction. There were some 2000m holes drilled in the late 1970s and they found temperatures of over 300ºC a few metres under the soil in some places, but it was mostly due to dry air rising from a cooling magmatic chamber. The power was estimated to be just a few hundred kilowatts worth. To contradict these results, there have also been scientists who claim the existence of a huge underground water reserve, but proving it is complicated if you aren't allowed to drill. I know of a resort outside of the national park (Club La Santa) which has Spain's largest geothermal installation, which they use to heat the pools and power the air conditioning. tl;dr: probably no meaningful geothermal hotspots, but too much red tape to know for sure.
The Lanzarote volcano is one of the most active volcanoes in the Canary Islands, but this was not always the case. Its recent eruptions could simply be a fluke, however (in terms of a long term trend).
Thanks so much for making this edition , im fortunate to be able to call lanzarote home & every day I am amazed , inspired , mesmerized & left in awe by its natural beauty .. maybe you could do one on the rift valley & how its tearing Africa apart , of course there's a lot going on there in this case with ngorongoro & Kilimanjaro being involved .. cheers ..
Maybe a video on Askja? The other likely eruption in Iceland. It seems the rate of inflation has increased from 7 cm to 9 cm. Magma seems to be accumulating there at a depth of a few kilometres.
I have been to Lanzarote, the Timanfaya lava field national park and climbed one of the cinder cones, I was impressed by volcanic landscape of the island, is great to learn that originally they were three islands, thank you I really enjoyed this video because it made me remember this beautiful island, very educational.
@@emzu690 cool! thats awesome! i did the volcan de la corona up north in ye. also the one in playa blanca where everyone spells their names with rocks.. i lived there for 12 years
when i was younger we came here on holiday and visited the geysers. can remember being fascinated as we drove in a coach through the roads carved out of the dried lava rocks. awesome stuff, would love to revisit

I've read that one explanation for the Canary islands is a zone of fractures along the oceanic crust which helps the magma rise up in those particular locations, and explains the imperfect hotspot track and volcanism on older islands
Yeah I remember reading that too looking it up it does appear some work has shown that geochemically they are being fed by plume material but from seismic tomography it is very indirect as the plume is being tilted horizontally with some material rising up through cracks wherever possible in the region. Its an interesting and complex tectonic setting for sure the fracture zone is definitely a part of the story. Honestly I wonder how this tectonic setting will evolve given that the Azores Gibraltar Transform Fault Zone (AGTZ) is currently undergoing a transformation into a subduction zone with the Canary islands being on the side of the fault that is being folded under and thus will be experiencing a northward component of motion. How will the hot spot and the various associated fractures it has been using as a conduit to the surface will the magma still follow these fractures or other will fractures and or conduits for release be involved? The islands themselves are likely to ultimately end up as accreted terrains assuming the subduction zone transformation gets finished which seems likely as the compression.
I find this volcano interesting because Lanzarote was created 20 million years ago, compared to the 2.5 million years of La Palma and even with that is active thought is at the beginning of the hotspot (very different to Hawai). Also can you talk about El Hierro erpution of 2011.
@@bigrooster6893 thats what is interesting about the canaries, instead of just being the west island (the African plate is moving north) that are active is the whole island chain , but the formation of the island follows a hawai trend, Lanzarote first then it moves west.
But hawaii is a Hotspot. Not a plate boundary. Are these islands formed do to plates moving away from each other? Fagradalsfjall is similar to these volcano/lava fields, yea?

Most of the area covered in lava in 1730-1736 is a protected national park, but the Caldera Blanca is accessible. A great hike through this large see of lava.
That 'steam rich geyser' you mention around 4:20 isn't actually a geyser, but created by pooring water down a hole; heat in this erea is indeed very close to the surface and used here to prepare food ;-)
very interesting! Could you tell us more about the teide mountain on teneriffe and why it is so high compared to the other surrounding islands and also something about that huge caldera? Would be so nice of you!!
It’s a stratovolcano! It erupts more viscous lava which does not travel very far. Similar to comparing pouring honey to pouring water on a flat surface. The honey will begin to pile up over time. Relevant video I made on Teide: m.ruclips.net/video/t4ZY6RxyqhA/видео.html
Also, Tenerife is at the stage of It's greatest size , the islands to the West of Tenerife are generally younger and closer to the Canary hotspot ,and so have yet to be built up by more eruptive episodes . The Islands to the East and South East are older islands , and erosion , weathering and less volcanic activity has, over time decreased the size of these Islands . It's possible that when the Eastern islands were the same age and location ( relative to the hotspot ) ,as Tenerife they could have been a similar size . In fact Tenerife was actually higher than its present size prior to the great plinian event ( more or less about one million years ago)that formed the Las Cañadas Caldera that circles Mount Teide on the upper area of Tenerife .
I'm a recent subscriber. This is great stuff! My question is whether the world's hot spots (Canary Islands, Yellowstone, others?) are in motion relative to each other. Is so, then what accounts for that? Is there any deep planetary feature (in addition to the two poles of Earth's axis) which would be a good candidate to establish an absolute reference system to describe the movement of continental plates in geologic time?
The apparent motions of hotspots is somewhat misleading. They are not moving, but the crust above them is. For Yellowstone, the hotspot is not moving but the North American crust is moving west. This is why another hotspot in the same plate (Nazko hotspot, Canada) follows the exact same trend
sorry this is unrelated but I am having a lot of trouble finding information on a caldera called the "lam teuba caldera" and was hoping that I could ask if you knew anything about it. thank you
I'm from Malaysia. As most would know my country is basically tectonically stable. We however do have a supposedly dormant volcano called Bombalai Hill located in the state of Sabah in Borneo. Not much information can be found regarding this volcano unfortunately so I was hoping you could find any extra information such eruption risk etc. Thanks.
Question: how is the hotspot moving? I thought hot spots stayed still and just the plate moved creating the illusion of a moving hotspot to make an island chain
Great video as usual! Not related to the recent videos on the Canary Islands, but I would love to hear you discuss Crowley's Ridge in Arkansas, USA. I remember being very confused when I was driving through the Mississippi Embayment and came across this extremely odd prominence out of nowhere.
Someone mentioned up above there’s a theory the crust has many fractures in that region, allowing lava to well up even on the edges of the hotspot. It’s interesting because it’s fairly different from the Hawaiian islands. This would be like Oahu having a large eruption today.
Really enjoying your volcano videos. You mentioned sulphur dioxide. It seems there is a poorly understood link between SO2 emissivity and cooling impacts. As well as the follow on issues of floods, famines and diseases. I appreciate that you are presenting facts as best as they are known. I wonder if it might be possible to explain the current state of correlation and prediction as well. There was a period of cold and famine during the War of the Spanish Succession. Might it have been linked to Mount Fuji activity? Is there any possible volcanic link to the North American drought of the “Dirty Thirties”? Thank You
If there such a thing as a geological volcano eruption "season"? I feel like they are erupting more often in recent years, but I might just not have noticed before because I don't live near a volcano.

Lucky enough to live on fuerteventura & I remember my first visit there at 19 years old and I was lucky enough to get over to the small island of Lobo's with its cinder cone blown out towards the west ,it was later closed off from tourists & only a select few are permitted to visit there now & also on Lanzarote literally 2 kilometres from the hotel I was staying in you turn left up over a short steep trail and there were all sorts of seismic metres buried into the black volvanic landscape because of ongoing deep activity . Absolutely wouldn't leave the Canary Islands.
This channel is really the most informative I found so far regarding the ongoing La Palma eruptions. Well done! But I would really appreciate a less 'American' accent of the narrator. A real, aka British English would certainly be more appropriate for an international audience.
Please learn to pronounce the names of the places you mention, it grinds my gears. It is really simple, one Google search away. e.g. Teide is pronounced like Tay day, not tide.
Only united we, people, will survive in the period of 12000 global climate change cyclicity. Many facts, presented by researchers who care truth, and the way out are in the international online conference "Global crisis. This already affects everyone".
Mount Teide is pronounced "Tay-day". And Lanzarote is pronounced "Lanza-rotty". The Spanish word for mountain, is pronounced montan-ya. Rather spoils your very interesting video.
Huh? No. Teide is pronounced "Teh-ee-deh" amd Lanzarote is very similar to how he pronounced it but depending on the accent is "Lan-sah-roh-teh" or "Lan-tha-roh-teh" ("th" as in "thought" not "the")

That eruption you’re on about was on La Palma from a volcano known as Teneguía in 1971. It started on 26th October and finished 28th November.

Please learn to pronounce the names of the places you mention, it grinds my gears. It is really simple, one Google search away. e.g. Teide is pronounced like Tay day, not tide.
Only united we, people, will survive in the period of 12000 global climate change cyclicity. Many facts, presented by researchers who care truth, and the way out are in the international online conference "Global crisis. This already affects everyone".
Common sense? You are talking about tourists, right? Common sense doesn't exist in a large portion of the population of earth.
Its not pronounced Tide its Tea ade de or Tea aid de
Why does he talk so funny?
Consider becoming a _pat-ron on Pat-reon_ not a *pate-reon on PATE-REEEEE-ONN*
Really 😂
@@johnmccartan939 I love everything about this channel except for his outro, it makes my SKIN CRAWL!!!
best take the Canary Islands off my to do list
Your pronunciation of "lanzerote" is shocking.
Mount Teide is pronounced "Tay-day". And Lanzarote is pronounced "Lanza-rotty". The Spanish word for mountain, is pronounced montan-ya. Rather spoils your very interesting video.
Huh? No. Teide is pronounced "Teh-ee-deh" amd Lanzarote is very similar to how he pronounced it but depending on the accent is "Lan-sah-roh-teh" or "Lan-tha-roh-teh" ("th" as in "thought" not "the")
@@nerner266 you are quite wrong! Its certainly not TIDE at any rate!
really? in which regional dialect of english, and from which country, do your examples make sense?
Lanzarote is being pronounced wrong 😂😂😂😂😂😂
can’t even pronounce the name right
If you require any credibility, please check your appalling pronunciation!
Please stop pausing and emphasising the last word of EVERY SENTENCE. Just talk as you normally talk
why do you assume he is not talking normally?
@@daos3300 he's reading from notes, not that it's a problem. But when you use the method to emphasise something on every sentence instead of sometimes, it just doesn't work. It becomes almost mechanical. It's like a communication course where they teach one thing and then overuse it. Just doesn't work
@@CyberBeep_kenshi like i said. it's his voice, it's the way he talks, notes or not.
"Lanz-a-rot-eh".....Please do a video on the correct pronunciation of place names around the globe.....there have been several howlers just recently......Luckily you have the appropriate pronunciation at the click of your mouse.....
You do the videos then lol & i bet you'll get the same texts about pronunciation .
theses videos are about geology, not linguistics
Terrible synthetic voice. This video is made to please robots.
