Masaya volcano (Nicaragua) activity update: strong degassing, no visible glow inside crater

AUTEUR : T

Andi reports from his visit to Masaya volcano on 7 January 2012:
"There is no incandescence currently as part of the wall near the vent collapsed into it. Local people are expecting an eruption to clear it. One can hear churning and avalanches and there is quite a bit of gas you bed to put the mask on or you can only stay 10-15 min on lookout. The dormant crater next door looks like has a small lava dome in it which is slowly rising. The trees and plants don't grow properly maybe because of CO2 in this crater?"
