Taal Volcano records 10 earthquakes in 24 hours, SO2 emission at 1,892 metric tons

Taal Volcano in Batangas recorded 10 earthquakes in the past 24 hours, a decrease from the previous day's count, according to the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs).

From October 1 to 9, a total of 78 volcanic earthquakes and four tremor episodes have been detected.

These tremors occurred during the two phreatic eruptions on October 2.

Phivolcs reported an emission of 1,892 metric tons of sulfur dioxide from Taal's main crater, with the gas plume rising 600 meters and drifting southwest, classified as a weak emission.

No upwelling of hot volcanic fluids was observed in the Main Crater Lake, and volcanic smog (vog) was also absent.
