The next massive volcano eruption will cause climate chaos — and we are unprepared go.nature.com/4hIZ8Ma

Great @nzherald article highlighting the findings from our new research. "Ancient waves: Scientists uncover evidence of massive South Island lake tsunamis" nzherald.co.nz/nz/ancient-wav…

How can electrical conductivity help us locate magma? Or how do seabed sediments provide a window into past eruptions?🤔 🎧To find out listen to GNS Geophysicist Craig Miller on today's episode of RNZ's Our Changing World. i.mtr.cool/druwvypeae

New paper! How accurate are hindcasts of explosive eruptions? In this new work from Stix et al, these authors assess the use of tremor as an eruption forecasting tool. More here 👇 doi.org/10.30909/vol.0…

This cover design is thanks to Dr Hannah Elms who has beautifully imaged a ~100 micron diameter, quartz-hosted rhyolite melt inclusion from the 1314 CE Kaharoa eruption, from Mt. Tarawera, Ōkataina Caldera (in the Taupō Volcanic Zone of New Zealand). We love it!

🚨2 geochemistry positions 🚨 in beautiful @univofstandrews (1 postdoc, 1 lab tech) studying volcanic forcing of climate. FWIW I am definitely better at science & supervising than social media!👩🏻‍🔬 Deadline extended Jan 10. tinyurl.com/29c6ebxc & tinyurl.com/mpd7tphh

I am so stoked to have been awarded a Rutherford Discovery Fellowship. Looking forward to working with some amazing people over the next 5 years to understand the processes that drive New Zealand’s volcanoes. 🌋
Royal Society Te Apārangi@royalsocietynz

In its final year, the Rutherford Discovery Fellowship has awarded 12 outstanding recipients with $800,000 each over the next five years to carry out their specialist research programme. Find out more about the winners and their projects here: royalsociety.org.nz/news/rutherfor… 🧪

Today was a big day for the #TAN2315 coring team. Despite difficult subsurface conditions around #Whakaari, we retrieved 6 usable cores! We also opened #Tuhua's 1st core & observed at least 6 #tephra layers, which were sampled for more onshore analyses. More to follow tomorrow ⚒️

Today we carried out the 1st coring of the #TAN2315 trip. We recovered 6 cores around #Tuhua (Mayor Island), with one reaching a whopping 5.4m in length! We even spotted tephra around a few of them. Super excited for tomorrow when we get our first sneak peak into the split cores!

Day 2 of the #TAN2315 trip saw us setting up labs and revising field plans. Today (Day 3), the real #science began with the deployment of #magnetotulleric (MT) stations around #Whakaari. We're now approaching #Tuhua, where piston #coring for my #PhD will replace MT around 3am 🌋

This is going to be an epic trip to the Bay of Plenty volcanoes. Can’t wait to see what we find for Jacquelines’s PhD project! @MBIEsci @VicUniWgtn @gnsscience
Jacqueline Grech Licari@GrechLicari

This morning, 12 scientists including myself, boarded the #RVTangaroa in #NZ for the #TAN2315 expedition funded by 'Beneath the Waves' to study the eruptive histories of #Whakaari & #Tuhua via marine coring & MT measurements. Excited for what lies ahead! 🌋 #PhD #volcanology
