Costa Rica , Turrialba / Poas / Rincon de la Vieja / Irazu :

Turrialba Volcano
Latitude: 10.025°N; Longitude: 83.767°W;
Altitude: 3340 m above sea level
Current activity level: warning
Possible events: Small eruptions, bubbling or geyser, significant emission of acid gases, rise in temperature (incandescence), seismic swarms or volcanic tremor, slight inflation-extension of the volcanic edifice.

The last phreatic eruption occurred on February 27. Seismic activity remains stable, similar to previous weeks. Geodetic monitoring shows that the Irazú-Turrialba massif continues with a tendency to deflation. The SO2 flux has a weekly average of 247 +/- 129 t/d, a value similar to the previous week.

Poas Volcano
Latitude: 10.2°N; Longitude: 84.233°W;
Altitude: 2780 m above sea level
Current activity level: warning
Possible events: Small eruptions, bubbling or geysers, significant emission of acid gases, rise in temperature (incandescence), seismic swarms or volcanic tremor, slight inflation-extension of the volcanic edifice.

Seismic activity remains stable at a low level. The geodetic network shows slight subsidence and no definite horizontal displacement. The SO2/CO2 ratio has a weekly average of 0.28 +/- 0.12 stable, and the H2S/SO2 ratio has a weekly average of 0.01 +/- 0.005, stable at a low level. The SO2 flux measured with the DOAS station has a weekly average of 96 +/- 43 t/d, a value similar to the previous week. The maximum SO2 concentration at the lookout was around 4 ppm over the past week. The level of the lake has risen about 40 cm during the week, the lake is about to expand on the Playón. Despite the extension of the lake, it maintains a high temperature of around 42°C. A small landslide was observed from the southern rim of the crater generating a small wave in the lake on July 5, around 8:20 a.m.

Rincon de la Vieja Volcano
Latitude: 10.83°N; Longitude: 85.324°W;
Altitude: 1895m.
Current activity level: warning
Possible events: Small eruptions, bubbling or geysers, significant emission of acid gases, rise in temperature (incandescence), seismic swarms or volcanic tremor, slight inflation-extension of the volcanic edifice.

The last eruption was on June 27. Seismic activity continues to decline. No tremor recorded, the RSAM is very low, disappearance of VT type events, then disappearance of « tornillos » type events and LPs. Geodetic monitoring does not show a clear pattern of deformation. The flow of SO2 is maintained with a baseline around 50 t/d, the weather did not allow many measurements to be made.

Irazu Volcano
Latitude: 9.979°N; Longitude: 83.852°W;
Altitude: 3432 m above sea level
Current activity level: Calm
Possible events: tectonic earthquakes, occasional low frequency earthquakes, hydrothermal activity (fumaroles, diffuse gas, hot springs, etc.).

Two small landslides were recorded in the towers sector on July 5 and the Channel 23 antenna was reportedly affected. The permanent GNSS monitoring station of the main landslide in the antenna sector does not show any significant acceleration. The CO2 concentration in the diffuse degassing zone on the northern flank of the volcano shows a decreasing value (517 +/- 10 ppm).

Mexico , Popocatepetl :

July 16, 11:00 a.m. (July 16, 4:00 p.m. GMT)

During the last 24 hours, according to the monitoring systems of the Popocatépetl volcano, 39 low intensity exhalations have been detected, accompanied by water vapor and volcanic gases. In addition, 20 minutes of low amplitude tremor were recorded.

During the morning and at the time of this report, the continuous emission of water vapor and gas which disperses in a West-Northwest direction was observed.

CENAPRED urges NOT TO APPROACH the volcano and especially the crater, because of the danger of falling ballistic fragments and, in case of heavy rains, to stay away from the bottom of the ravines because of the danger of mudslides and of debris.

The Popocatépetl volcanic alert traffic light is in YELLOW PHASE 2.
