volcanology

1 In Mountains of Fire, Clive Oppenheimer, a professor of volcanology at the University of Cambridge, recounts a life spent studying volcanoes up close.

2 Numerous rockfalls and thin ash and steam plumes that drifted south were also observed, the government volcanology institute said.

3 There's probably no better book that combines the history of volcanology with a solid description of how volcanoes work.

4 Guatemala’s seismology and volcanology institute says the volcano continued to rumble Sunday, shooting columns of ash nearly three miles into the sky while lava pooled around the crater.

5 Oppenheimer: With volcanology, it integrates many other disciplines: archaeology, obviously, anthropology, climatology and the whole hazard and risk side of it.

6 As individuals, these women bring an impressive range of experiences to the table — everything from volcanology to offshore sailing to traveling in the circus.

7 Anak Krakatau first rose above sea level in 1929, according to Indonesia’s volcanology agency, and has been increasing its land mass since then.

8 Indonesia's volcanology agency said the eruptions were triggered by recent earthquakes in the area.

9 And the science of volcanology hadn't really been born yet when Darwin first laid eyes upon the Galapagos.

10 Hot volcanic material, including fine cement-like matter and large rocks, moved through gorges on the sides of the mountain, emitting hot gases and carrying tree trunks torn up by the flow, the volcanology institute warned.

11 The volcanology institute reminded the public that the small island where the volcano lies is a “permanent danger zone,” although fishing villages have existed there for years.

12 The volcanology institute raised the danger level around Taal three notches on Sunday to level 4, indicating “a hazardous eruption may happen within hours or days,” said Renato Solidum, who heads the volcanology institute.

13 Palmieri’s approach was pioneering at a time when volcanology still straddled science and faith.

14 "Taal volcano is a baby volcano sitting within a much bigger caldera volcano," said Ben Kennedy, associate professor of physical volcanology at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand.

15 Outside the permanent danger zone, the volcanology institute warned people including those living on the vulnerable southeastern side of the volcano to stay alert “due to the increased possibilities of sudden and hazardous phreatic eruptions.”

16 The national institute for geophysics and volcanology said the quake happened in the middle of the night and was 1km deep.

17 Andrews provides illuminating analogies that capture the uncertainty and unknowns of volcanology.

18 Ken Rubin, professor of volcanology at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, said that depending on the landscape and the age of the tube, the ground above it could be brittle or several feet thick.

19 Speaking from Iceland, Dr Ilyinskaya, associate professor of volcanology at Leeds University, said local people had been both "fearing and waiting for" the volcano to erupt.

20 Much of that is due to new technologies in volcanology: everything from drones that allow scientists to peek into a volcanic cauldron to supercomputers that run prediction algorithms.
