Amongst other things, I am mired in my third year review here, so I've been using up a lot of my non-teaching/research time in writing a professional statement. It can definitely be a time sink, but considering it will ... Read More

I have my last trip of the summer to lovely Minneapolis for a SERC workshop called "Teaching Mineralogy, Petrology and Geochemistry in the 21st Century", so I'll be busy for a lot ... Read More

  Erik Klemetti in Eruptions

  It has now been one year since the eruption that closed the skies over Europe and captured the world's attention. Before April 13-14, 2010, most people outside Iceland (or this blog) had ever heard the name Eyjafjallajökull and suddenly (much to the dismay of broadcasters everywhere), it became a ... Read More

  So, I finally got this project done! We all do a lot of webcam watching here on Eruptions. A lot of the time when a new eruption occurs, the first question posted is “is there a webcam?”, so I thought I’d try to come up with a definitive list of extant volcano webcam, organized by region of the ...
