What will I learn?
Gain hands-on expertise in analysing active volcanoes, covering target selection, tectonic contexts, magma origins, rock classifications, and geochemistry. Connect magma traits to eruption behaviours, interpret seismic, gas, deformation, and remote sensing data, and develop precise hazard assessments and reports from reliable international observatory data.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Volcano selection and tectonic analysis: quickly assess high-risk volcanic systems.
- Rock types and magma geochemistry: identify rocks from basalts to rhyolites for rapid insights.
- Magma systems and monitoring: interpret seismic, gas, and ground deformation signals.
- Eruption styles and deposits: connect magma features to lava flows, pyroclastic flows, ash falls, and lahars.
- Hazard forecasting and reporting: create reliable scenarios and produce practical advisory reports.
