Arenal Volcano is growingThe lava coming out of the top of Arenal Volcano makes the volcano grow constantly, in front of our eyes. Volcanologist Eliecer Duarte –of the Costa Rican Volcanology and Seismology Observatory (OVSICORI in Spanish) assures that this will continue in the coming years. The scientist pointed out that Arenal is a young volcano, since its current activity phase started, with a very destructive eruption, only 40 years ago. The activity has been constant since then and is now expanding. However, he explained that the crater itself is not growing. |
