“The dreamy island of the Aegean is one of the Pearls of Greece, a paradise in the Mediterranean. But the inhabitants are anxious. “ mentions Bild About the ongoing fear of its inhabitants Santorini and the Cyclades for the intense seismic mobility recorded in recent days, as well as the extraordinary measures taken. According to estimates by the president of the Anti -Seismic Planning and Protection Organization Efthimios Lekka, “Seismic activity is due to submarine rifts, not volcanic activity.”
However according to the website vulkane.netnotes Bild, “Scientists have identified a great deal of magma accumulation three years ago (…) Due to high pressure, it could again become a volcanic explosion. Experts, however, estimate that this will not happen in the next 150 years. ” The report also refers to emergency measures taken for locals, closing schools and warnings to avoid specific areas due to landslides.
The post reminds: “The Archipelago of Santorini was formed by a volcanic eruption 3,600 years ago. The crater was flooded with sea water and partially retreated. The fragments formed the island archipelago totaling 96 sq. Km. with a length of 70 km. “
‘The volcano active – not particular concern’
The website tagesschau.de The first program of German public television also refers extensively to Santorini: “Recently again the volcano has shown little activity. However, the data so far do not offer any reason for particular concern, “says the Greek Citizen Protection Ministry. The crescent -shaped island was formed as a result of multiple eruptions. The volcano remains active continuous and more recent between 2011 and 2012. Then volcanic activity lasted 14 months, but no explosions or other incidents occurred ».
And the post continues: “According to the Thessaloniki Seismological Institute, most seismic vibrations are recorded underwater between Santorini and Amorgos. Earthquake power ranges from 3 to 4.5 Richter. According to Geophysics Professor Costas Papazachou on Friday, there is no reason to worry.
