Really exciting synthesis of high temporal resolution tephra geochemistry and seismic data to understand how to relate seismic data to what is actually happening in magmatic systems beneath active eruptions
Check out our paper just out in @NatureGeosci on petrological monitoring of the 2021 eruption on La Palma and the link between melt composition and volcanic tremor

Nice piece on our @Naturegeosci paper on cryptic degassing—aka a CO2 leak from deep in ancient LIP plumbing systems

One neat aspect of this work: we suggest that climate records could actually be a way of placing top-down constraints on what is happening deep in magmatic systems. Always a treat to work with @bjwmills @VolcanoListener @tamsinmather and many others!

Check out these humongous dikes lurking beneath the Columbia River Basalts (and meet the friendly horses who helped us haul our gear up to explore them)! Great field work with @VolcanoListener and the C2C team

@WeAreVolcanica Wow! Someone should give those authors a Volcanica t-shirt for that milestone!

Considering a change in life? What about a spell on this fragment of a stack of flood basalt lavas in the North Atlantic…
🇫🇴Koltur island will soon welcome 2 new superintendents. Picture yourself living & working solo on this 2.30 sq km remote island, surrounded only by nature. Your tasks would include research, preserving historic sites & welcoming visitors. Would you ever consider it?🐑 #Koltur

@OlivierNamur @WeAreVolcanica @kuleuven_fwet Neat! Excited to try this… We are working on our own standards. But if anyone has leads on basaltic glass standards that might be loanable I’d be interested to discuss

@e8chin I just re-read 13 ways of looking at a blackbird. It made me disagree with what I wrote above. the blackbird definitely matters, it’s not a side note. But at the same time you could gain lots/all from seeing just about anything 13 ways… Xenoliths, volcanoes, etc
