Volcano-ice interactions II conference

Click below for more information on our multidisciplinary research, which includes:
  • Detailed mapping of rhyolitic volcanoes in Iceland to reconstruct how they erupted under ice.
  • Study of the latest images from Mars, where volcanoes have generated huge volumes of meltwater.
  • Fieldwork on glaciated volcanoes in Chile to look at indicators of climate change.
  • Temperature measurements at Grímsvötn, an active volcano under Europe’s largest icecap.
  • Mathematical simulations of what happens when volcanoes erupt under ice.
  • Investigation into alteration processes in subglacially erupted rhyolitic glasses.
