Teneguía is a monogenetic cinder cone 〔 - a vent which has been active once and is unlikely to become active in the future. It is situated on the island of La Palma, one of the Canary Islands and is located at the southern end of the sub-aerial section of the Cumbre Vieja volcano of which Teneguía is just one of several vents. ==1971 Eruption== This vent is the source of the last subaerial volcanic eruption on Spanish soil –from October 26 to November 28, 1971. Earthquakes preceded the eruption. The eruption killed an elderly fisherman who got too close to the lava and was asphyxiated by the fumes. The eruption also caused some property damage and destroyed a beach, though a new one was later formed by natural means. Populated zones were not affected. The vent has since become an attraction for tourists and forms part of the ''Monumento Natural de Los Volcanes de Teneguía''. In 2011-2012 a submarine eruption occurred about 2km off the southern point - Restinga, on the island of El Hierro which is about 100 km south of La Palma and a separate volcano - as are each of the islands in the archipelago. This did not stop speculation that the eruption portended activity on La Palma. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Teneguía」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
