Volcanoes

We expect to make significant inroads into understanding the inner workings of volcanoes in Southeast Asia.

Seismic, geodetic, gas, and other data are collected by the ~80 members of the World Organization of Volcano Observatories. Lack of standardization in data formats and database architectures makes it nearly impossible to do comparative studies of volcanic unrest, or to search data for analogues to a...

Volcano Plumbing and Magma

Reconstructing the Plumbing Systems and Dynamics of Magmatic Processes below Active Volcanoes Recent technological advances have revolutionized volcano monitoring by improving our ability to measure changes of a volcanic system before, during, and after an eruption.

Mayon Laboratory Volcano

Laboratory Volcanoes: Mayon In the spectrum from openly-degassing to plugged volcanoes, Mayon is near the openly degassing end, producing mostly small, frequent eruptions, most recently in December 2009.

Volcano Exploratory Projects

Exploratory Projects on Volcanoes Most active scientists work on several projects at varying stages of completion, and often want to explore a new topic before they finish the old. Not much money is required for the exploration - usually just some travel expense and a little operating money.

Gede Salak Laboratory Volcano

Laboratory Volcanoes: Gede-Salak Gede and Salak, high-risk volcanoes in West Java, are representative of many arc volcanoes that exhibit only minor visible degassing yet exhibit seismic swarms (Gede) and thermal features (Salak) that suggest recent magma and gas input from depth.
