What will I learn?
This focused Volcanology Course builds practical skills for analysing active volcanoes. Learn to select target edifices, define tectonic settings, interpret magma generation, rock types, and geochemistry. Connect magma properties to eruptive styles, utilise seismic, gas, deformation, and remote sensing data, and create hazard scenarios and reports from reliable global sources.
