New paper alert! Lots of members of our lab were involved with this deep-dive into the Icelandic crust at Krafla volcano, where the IDDP-1 borehole hit rhyolitic magma at just 2.1km. Led by Dr Fabian Wadsworth doi.org/10.1016/j.jvol…


In this paper, our Jérémie Vasseur works with Durham Volcanology and Dr Fabian Wadsworth to explore simple analytical solutions to projectile motion problems for classrooms. They even apply the problem to volcanic eruptions! doi.org/10.1119/5.0161…


New experimental paper from our lab! We quantitatively show that most dome lavas are emplaced via a mixed viscous-brittle flow mechanism! Potentially transformative implications for our understanding of volcanic eruptions! Led by Dr Fabian Wadsworth doi.org/10.1016/j.jvol…


New paper showing cyclic pressure pulses can reduce peak pressure required for hydraulic fracturing, with implications for #geothermal #energy led by our Jackie Kendrick Jackie Kendrick with Anthony Lamur Anthony Lamur with School of GeoSciences @ University of Edinburgh & Strathclyde Uni doi.org/10.1016/j.isci…


Today the 12th Silicate Melt Workshop kicks off here at Universität München with an excellent host of presentations after yesterday’s lab tours and #icebreaker Organized by K-U. Hess, Y. Lavallee, D.B. Dingwell and P. Richet (Photo from Ulrich Küppers)



The obligatory group photo for the 12th Silicate Melt Workshop here Universität München during a well-timed break in the clouds #silicatemelt



This morning our Yan Lavallee is getting us all thinking about how to drill into #magma with Krafla Magma Testbed (KMT) given our knowledge of #silicatemelt





Alumni and long-time collaborator Dr Fabian Wadsworth presents absolutely everything we know about sintering in melts glasses and magmas at the 12th Silicate Melt Workshop #SMW2024



Summer weather in early October brought perfect conditions on Milos island, Greece. 10 MSc students joined our Ulli (Ulrich Küppers) to learn field methods to study volcanic deposits & discuss eruptive processes. Ευχαριστώ to Evi from University of Athens for logistic support. #milos


Douillet et al.'s work sparked our research -appliedvolc.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… (Ulrich Küppers) Here’s how we built on their insights! doi.org/10.55467/reder…




new article alert: Our alumni Arianna Soldati has led the study "Melt viscosity tracks the volcanic and magmatic evolution of the 2021 Tajogaite eruption, La Palma (Canary Islands)".
