This afternoon at the #KMTsymposium2024 we have more speakers from our research group at Universität München - kicking off with Marize Muniz da Silva on the storage conditions of the rhyolitic magma at Krafla caldera
Shane Rooyakkers shares views on Rhyolites origin at Krafla - a “covert magma” possibility? GNS Science Te Pū Ao McGill University #kraflamagmatestbed #KMTsymposium2024
Three possible scenarios in Oleg Melnik’s numerical simulation on the formation of the IDDP-1 rhyolitic melt in Krafla and an open endorsement to our #magma quest! Oxford Earth Sciences UMR 5563 GET #kraflamagmatestbed #KMTsymposium2024
Next up this afternoon, our Janine Birnbaum shows her work on magma vesiculation as part of the European Research Council (ERC) project MODERATE at the #KMTsymposium2024 with big implications for drilling into magma in the Krafla Magma Testbed (KMT)
Anastassia Borisova from UMR 5563 GET provides insight onto the petrogenesis of IDDP-1 rhyolites, suggesting a chemical diffusion process controlling an interaction between felsic granophyre rocks and a crystallized basaltic magma. #kraflamagmatestbed #KMTsymposium2024
Wrapping up a fantastic day of magma-energy-science at the #KMTsymposium2024 our Yan Lavallée presents the state of the art on #magma vesiculation as part of his European Research Council (ERC) project MODERATE towards the goals of the Krafla Magma Testbed (KMT)
Bright and early, Ana Martinez Garcia, PhD candidate on the IMPROVE project University of Bristol Earth Sciences presents her work on crustal density for the last day at the #KMTsymposium2024 here at Universität München
The #KMTsymposium2024 programme encompasses also social studies around #Krafla. Mike Cassidy from Lancaster University gave yesterday an eye-opening talk on the #ethics of engineering #volcanoes. According to the guiding principles, #kraflamagmatestbed is on the right track!
Our Jo Gottsmann presents his recent work on the Geodetic signature of thermal modulation of #magma in the context of energy production in the Krafla Magma Testbed (KMT) for the last day of the #KMTsymposium2024 here at Universität München 🌋
Session 6 and last session of #KMTsmyposium2024 is on, tackling geochemistry aspects around #Krafla system and analogues. Finnbogi Óskarsson (Iceland Geosurvey) and Andri Stefánsson (Háskóli Íslands) give insight into chemical properties of superheated & supercritical fluids.
First attempts are made by Andri Stefánsson’s team Háskóli Íslands to model thermodynamic of natural superhot fluid composition. #KMTsymposium2024 #kraflamagmatestbed
G. Bini from Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia and IMPROVE project reveals the origin and thermal energy of deep fluids at #Krafla’s geothermal system and their implications for #volcanomonitoring and #geothermal energy exploration. #kraflamagmatestbed #KMTsymposium2024
I had the amazing opportunity to present the first results of my PhD research at the Krafla Magma Testbed (KMT) Symposium this week. Thanks to all the attendants and to the LMU Volcanology team for the organization. Next destination: EGU24, Vienna #PhD #Krafla #KMT #LMU #IMPROVE
What a fantastic week! Thank you Yan Lavallée and all the team LMU Volcanology for hosting this successful #magma science gathering! The collective work towards #kraflamagmatestbed starts indeed now 🌋🙌🏽 Let’s go!
