	Arenal Volcano Costa Rica overview
		Arenal was constructed by successive eruptions to the NW (10.463°N (10°27'48"N), 84.703°W (84°42'12"W)) of the older Chato volcano, which contains a 500 meters wide summit crater.
		Arenal eruptions are of the strombolian type (name after the volcano Stromboli in Italy: A type of volcanic activity which produces frequent, moderate eruptions.
		This part of the volcano's "plumbing system" acts as a temporary storage reservoir and is usually sited beneath the summit of the volcano at depths of less than 5 km (1 km =.62 mile, or roughly 2/3 of a mile).

		Conical Volcán Arenal is the youngest stratovolcano in Costa Rica and one of its most active.
		Arenal lies along a volcanic chain that has migrated to the NW from the late-Pleistocene Los Perdidos lava domes through the Pleistocene-to-Holocene Chato volcano, which contains a 500-m-wide, lake-filled summit crater.
		Growth of Arenal has been characterized by periodic major explosive eruptions at several-hundred-year intervals and periods of lava effusion that armor the cone.

		Young deposits were of the slopes of the volcano but it had not erupted in historic time.
		Strombolian eruptions occur at Arenal at intervals of several minutes to hours.
		Prior to the current eruption, Arenal had not erupted since 1500 A.D. This long interval between eruptions highlights the difficulty in distinguishing extinct and dormant volcanoes.

		Arenal's most recent eruptive period began on July 29, 1968 at 7:20 AM when "Cerro" Arenal--as it was called by local residents--explosively blew the west side off the volcano.
		Between July 29 and 31 three new craters were formed on the western flank of the volcano and a fifteen-square kilometer area (5.8 square miles) was devastated.
		Ancient footpaths around the Arenal Volcano dating from around 500 BC (2500 years ago!) were discovered by the NASA Archeological Remote Sensing Project.
