First time at the controls! Observers from the Rabaul Volcanological Observatory are getting in some air time at our #GCRF drone training workshop. Building confidence slowly with tasks of increasing complexity, combined with classroom theory sessions Cambridge Earth Sciences BristolFlightLab

#CitiesOnVolcanoes12 #CoV12 Such a sad story (if I have understood the Spanish correctly). Several people standing on a bridge observing the eruption of Fuego volcano perished in a PDC because they thought the volcano erupted in the same style as Kilauea on Hawaii, ie lava flows

Super presentation by Lara Mani from Centre for the Study of Existential Risk bringing the knowledge of numerous & diverse hazards to provide 8 key recommendations to enhance volcanic risk communication Cities on Volcanoes 12 IAVCEI - here’s the summary of the 8!

Heading into the field with experts in the area is an incredible learning experience. The fantastic Brad Scott tells a beautiful story of how our calderas, faults, and geothermal activity, & people, are linked in our best-smelling city, #Rotorua. Thanks Brad! teawamutunews.nz/2024/04/our-ge…

Although the unusual earthquakes have continued under Mt Ruapehu, our other monitored parameters have not changed. The Volcanic Alert Level remains at 1.  Read the full bulletin here: geonet.org.nz/vabs/VkCBmAtmm…

Bit of a trip back in time with radio NZ this week, looking back to the 1995/96 eruptions at Ruapehu; rnz.co.nz/national/progr…

Just as good as mine, at the other end of the TVZ.

Due to the absence of further eruptive activity at Whakaari/White Island 🌋 since Sat 25 May, we have lowered the Volcanic Alert Level to Level 2 (moderate to heightened unrest).  Read the full bulletin: geonet.org.nz/vabs/5ETpL5nyX…

New eruption on Reykjanes, Iceland started around 2 pm local time. The fissure is in the same place as the previous eruption, a few km north of Grindavik. Currently ~2.5 km long and may be still lengthening

First #Sentinel5P #TROPOMI overpass ~1.3 hours after the onset of today's #eruption on #Iceland's #Reykjanes peninsula shows very high SO₂ column amounts in plume spreading SE. Est. SO₂ emission rate is ~1400 kg/s (~120,000 tons/day). Veðurstofa Íslands / Icelandic Met Office Copernicus EU Geochemistry and Petrology Group @ Uni. Iceland

This has been one of the most rewarding projects I have worked on thanks to the BOP Regional Council for the support.

Move over Yellowstone Caldera Ahi Tupua has arrived and moved in the 2nd top 100. New Zealand's geothermal features get some recognition from IUGS #hotsprings #Rotorua #tepuia #Waimangu #Wiaotapu #Tikitere #whakarewarewa gns.cri.nz/news/rotorua-g…

We are thrilled to announce that Rotorua’s geothermal fields (Ahi-Tupua), Ruapehu volcano and other New Zealand sites have been recognised with "world's best" status in the Second 100 IUGS Geological Heritage Sites. Read the full story here 👇 i.mtr.cool/iaunrjiyys

Low level eruption continues with variable gas and ash emissions at Whakaari/White Island. The Volcanic Alert Level remains at Level 3 (minor eruption) and the Aviation Colour Code remains at Orange. Read the full bulletin here 👇 geonet.org.nz/vabs/5zhssQfba…

An when they do it makes nice earthquakes ....
