A few days of #volcanology fieldwork in Cabo de Gata (Spain) - great submarine volcanics and a really interesting submarine dome collapse/debris avalanche🌋🌞

Back from fieldwork in Guatemala looking at Fuego PDC deposits for our @NERCscience project exploring generation mechanisms. We had a great team bringing together many skills and experiences. Excited to continue working on this also with those who weren’t in the field!

Two weeks ago, we were in Abruzzo 🇮🇹 studying a rock avalanche with a fantastic team from @Unibo. Excited to see the deposit's ER tomography soon... I do feel like a landslide doctor now🩻. Here's a preliminary graphic summary of the study—arrows and scale to come!

On the 50th anniversary of the Turkish invasion and illegal occupation of Cyprus, it is time to reunite the island.
The ongoing illegal occupation of 37% of its territory has left #Cyprus divided. This wound remains open to this day. It’s time for Turkey to respect int law.

This video is fascinating. The driver of a car in #Taiwan gets warning of an #earthquake and takes appropriate action, stopping in a rockfall shelter. And what a good job they did, as rockfalls inundated the road.
Early warning systems save lives, so long as you have a plan.

Careers day at the @ourdynamicearthwas was so much fun! Talked about volcanoes 🌋, mass flows, landslides🏔️ and the work we do at @GeosciencesEd and the @BritGeoSurvey. Only some monopoly houses were harmed in the process of illustrating mass flow hazards.

#CitiesOnVolcanos12 has been amazing! Presenting and attending interesting sessions, meeting old friends and new; discussing volcanology in stunning Antigua #Guatemala... I wish you didn't have to end volcano-filled #COV12. Hasta la proxima 🌋🇬🇹

Fieldtrip to Santiago Atitlán was a highlight. Stunning landscapes, happy memories; but also a lot to witness, experience, and absorb... Diverse volcanic processes surrounding the Tzu'tujil communities which generously welcomed us. Thank you all organisers @IxchelProject!

And for the last day of our fieldtrip, we are incredibly grateful for all of the shared moments with the communities and within our participants and co-organisers.
Thank you all! Miltiox!
On Day 4, we went up to Cerro de Oro, a sacred site for the Tz'utujil people. We learned about the stories around it and we discussed some of geology, and how these two come together. We also visited a local school to exchange stories around volcanoes!

On Day 1, we had a very long but amazing day. We met with four different groups in Panabaj, who talked about their stories and the realities of living in a high risk zone.

Guatemala, its volcanoes and people have been such a privilege during the pre-#CoV12!
Now, time to exchange research and ideas!
If you are at @COVolcanoes12 come to Inglesia S. Jose at 16:30 (ses. 406), where I will be talking about Fuego PDCs!
¡Y también hablamos español!

I have also presented a poster, illustrating granular flow experiments at @EarthSciPlymUni and discussing the importance of dynamic scaling in analogue experiments.
It's not on the @COVolcanoes12 board today, but it is here!

Nothing unexpected there. Now back to work, making pyroclastic density currents appear on my next one...
