For them earthquakes that seems to have no end to Cyclades and the evolution of the phenomenon spoke to the SKAI and to ‘Today»The Director of the Athens Geodynamic Institute, Vassilis Karastathis.

“What we are expecting is to reduce the frequency of earthquakes year after time. This is observed and could be a very good sign. Beyond that, however, we are watching a phenomenon a little different from what we are used to seeing, “Mr Karastathis initially pointed out, explaining that:

“If it were a common earthquake, we could now speak very optimistic. Simply the rods have these fluctuations. We may go up, but there is a good thing: that even when we went to climb the previous days, the seismicity has been kept lower than the early stages, which means that there is a staggering fall so far. If we are held in single digit numbers for some time above 4, until the middle of next week we can be more optimistic. “

At the same time, the director of the Geodynamic Institute said that what is primarily concerned with is the seismic danger, which if he leaves the foreground, then “we will speak much more calmly and with much greater optimism”. “The goal is to see this good image to be reinforced,” he said.

“What we are systematically watching is that we do not have the movement of the Edits to other zones. The big picture is that we see a recession of seismicity. We are waiting to see her consolidate. When this main phenomenon stops, we will study all the rest. “

Finally, he emphasized that there were less tensions in the area of ​​Santorini than other areas. “The intensity is a size we measure in a Merkali and we saw that it is not as noticeable as in other areas for example. It could be more sensible and more likely to have a little harm. “
