Turrialba volcano (Costa Rica) opened a new vent on 12 January 2012 as the result of an overpressure on the southeast flank of the West Crater. This decompression event released ash that was carried by the wind at least up to Tres Rios (27km SW from the vent). As a consequence the Comisión Nacional de Emergencias and the Turrialba Volcano National Park's administration declared a yellow alert and closed the access, which is still the case on January 17th. (Message from OVSICORI-UNA) A report with more details is available in English and Spanish on the webpage of the OVSICORI-UNA (Observatorio Vulcanológico y Sismológico de Costa Rica): English version: http://www.ovsicori.una.ac.cr/pdf/2012/Turrialba_eruption-report_2012-01_eng.pdf Spanish version: http://www.ovsicori.una.ac.cr/pdf/2012/Turrialba_eruption-report_2012-01.pdf A video illustrating the activity on January 13th, 2012 is also available: http://www.ovsicori.una.ac.cr/videos/Turrialba-2012-01-13.mp4

The volcanic unrest at Turrialba seems to intensify, and signs of a possible new eruption in the near to medium future are getting stronger: According to OVSICORI-UNA a gas-and-steam plume from Turrialba rose to an altitude greater than 5.3 km (17,400 ft) a.s.l. on 5 December. Fieldwork confirmed an unusual output of gas from several fumaroles along the S outer wall. Areas burned by acute acidification have extended in the last month. Pastures turned yellowish near the upper areas, and native and exotic tree species were impacted as well as birch tree patches along most drainages. Within the W crater, temperatures of fumaroles reached 280 degrees Celsius and native sulfur was present. ...
