Since mid-august the Cotopaxi volcano is in an eruptive process. We don’t expect any direct impact at our three research sites, but air traffic can be affected, leading to delays or cancellations of flights, and areas around the Cotopaxi (including parts of the valley east of Quito (Cumbayá, Tumbaco, Valle de los Chillos)) could be affected directly. Please find here additional information from the German Embassy about the situation and keep yourself informed.
