that the number of volcanic quakes near the area reached 787 in the 24 hour period to 5 a.m. of Sunday.
Phivolcs Volcano Monitoring and Eruption Prediction Division Chief Mariton Bornas told the media on Sunday's briefing. Phreatomagmatic eruptions are brought about by the interaction between magma and water, Phivolcs earlier noted.The agency added that it is also"bothered" by the increased number of volcanic earthquakes especially now that Taal's magmatic chamber has opened up, allowing space for movement of magma underneath.
Professor Carlo Arcilla of the University of the Philippines National Institute of Geological Sciences previously told CNN Philippines that anyone found within Taal's 14-kilometer danger zone will meet an instant death for inhaling the hot gases due to the magma's hot temperature which could be at least 600 degrees Celsius to 1,000 degrees Celsius.
