The Turrialba Volcano is a stratovolcano located approximately 35 km northwest from San Jose, Costa Rica’s capital city. Since October 29, 2014, until at least late 2015, a series of eruptions has represented the most significant activity of this volcano since the 1860s. These eruptions dispersed a significant volume of ash that reached the most populous areas of the country. In this article, the characteristics of the ash particles are analyzed in order to establish the nature of the eruptive events that occurred on 2014 and 2015, and to monitor the evolution of the eruptive processes. The analysis was carried out utilizing optical microscopy and stereomicroscopy techniques, as well as novel scanning electron microscopy (SEM) methods that involve imaging and element composition analysis by means of Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDX). Results show the evolution of the Turrialba eruptions from phreatic events in 2014, with ashes composed entirely of non-juvenile fragments, to phreatomagmatic events starting on March 12, 2015 with the appearance of a significant fraction of juvenile components in the ash.
