Fault propagation folds induced by gravitational failure and slumping of the central Costa Rica Volcanic Range: Implications for large terrestrial and Martian volcanic edifices

TL;DR: The Central Costa Rica volcanic range (CCRVR) as discussed by the authors contains thrust faults and related fault propagation folds, only partly covered by syntectonic and posttectonic volcanoclastic deposits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamics of lava flow fronts, Arenal Volcano, Costa Rica

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the relationship between the amount and distribution of the lava and the ground morphology in basaltic andesite lava flows and derived a velocity profile in the channel and the frontal zone.
Journal ArticleDOI

An integrated dynamic model for the volcanic activity at Poas volcano, Costa Rica

TL;DR: In this article, a dynamic model for the activity of Poas Volcano, Costa Rica, is proposed, which leads to the assumption that the kinetic and thermal energies are proportional to the depth at which the mechanical equilibrium is disturbed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aspectos sismológicos y morfotectónicos en el extremo occidental de la Cordillera Volcánica Central de Costa Rica

TL;DR: The authors of as mentioned in this paper report that cinco sismos locales of magnitudes intermedias (5 < M ≤ 6.5) and foco superficial (h < 20 km) han afectado the zona with intensidades maximas (Mercali modificado) entre VII and IX grados.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigaciones geofisicas y caracteristicas geoquimicas de las aguas hidrotermales: volcan poas, costa rica

TL;DR: In this paper, a geophysical and geochemical preliminar research has been carried out in the active caldera of Poas volcano during 1980-82, and the temperature increase from 92°C to 960°C in the N-E section of the lava dome seems to be related to the fracturing of the upper plug of the cooling magma body at depth.
