Detailed information of the damage to agriculture, infrastructure is provided, among others, and it is classified according to the year in which the activity occurred and also by the volcano that generated it. During this time there were three national emergencies triggered by volcanic eruptions: Irazú in 1963 - 1965, Arenal in 1968 and Poás in 1990, whose losses were estimated in US$117.3 million, US$5,8 million and between US$1.1 and US$2.3 million, respectively (american dollars in present value of 2016). If taken into consideration other periods of volcanic crisis, the estimated total economic losses in Costa Rica because of volcanism is between US$174.1 and US$193.1 million in present value. This is a minimum amount because many of the economic losses were not quantified.Se presenta una estimación en valor presente de las pérdidas económicas causadas por la actividad volcánica en Costa Rica en el período comprendido entre 1953 y 2016. Se brinda información detallada de los daños en agricultura, ganadería, infraestructura, entre otros, clasificada según el año en que ocurrió la actividad y el volcán que la generó. Durante este tiempo ocurrieron tres emergencias nacionales disparadas por erupciones volcánicas: Irazú en 1963 - 1965, Arenal en 1968 y Poás en 1990, cuyas pérdidas se estimaron (en dólares estadounidenses en valor presente al 2016) en US$117,3 millones, US$5,8 millones y entre US$1,1 y US$2,3 millones, respectivamente. Si se toman en consideración otros períodos de afectación volcánica, el total estimado de pérdidas económicas en Costa Rica por causa del vulcanismo es de entre US$174,1 y US$193,1 millones en valor presente. Este es un monto mínimo dado que muchas de las pérdidas económicas no fueron cuantificadas.Universidad de Costa Rica2017-06-27info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticleartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/geologica/article/view/2923510.15517/rgac.v0i56.29235 Revista geológica de América central; Vol. 56 (2017): January-June Revista geológica de América central; Vol. 56 (2017): Enero-Junio2215-261X0256-7024reponame:Portal de Revistas UCRinstname:Universidad de Costa Ricainstacron:UCRspahttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/geologica/article/view/29235/29555Derechos de autor 2017 Revista Geológica de América Centralacceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-09-13T01:08:05Zoai:portal.ucr.ac.cr:article/29235Portal de revistashttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/Universidadhttp://www.ucr.ac.crhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaijorge.polanco@ucr.ac.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:2025-08-13T10:32:30.747Portal de Revistas UCR - Universidad de Costa Ricafalse
