Explosion from Reventador volcano on 14 August (image: IGEPN)
The effusive-explosive eruption of the volcano continues and has remained essentially unchanged.
Near-constant vulcanian explosions continue to take place from the summit crater that reached 4,6 km (15,000 ft) height and drifted west and northwest over the past few days.
The viscous lava flow on the northeastern flank remains active. Incandescent blocks of the lava continue to be observed on the southern flank, tumbling down several hundred of meters distance from the summit.
