Various Incandescent Points, By Night, at Turrialba Volcano: Costa Rica

Dear volcano followers.

A recent nocturnal visit to the West Crater (Turrialba volcano, Costa Rica) revealed several simultaneaous, incandescent spots. SW vent (Boca 2010), N vent (Boca 2011) and SE vent (Boca 2012) show differential gas and vapor outputs, while showing different incandescence levels. The latter one (opened on January 12th ) registers temperatures above 700ºC.
For a visual reference here is a brief report (comments in English).
