Workshop Reminder: The UCL Johnston-Lavis Conference 2006


Managing Volcanic Crises:
Effective Integration of Science, Policy and Practice

Thursday 20 April - Friday 21 April 2006
University College London

This two-day conference will address practical strategies for managing 
volcanic crises. It invites volcanologists to discuss what they can do, 
decision makers to declare what they need, and both communities to identify 
methods of combining the two for improved responses to volcanic 
emergencies. The two days will be divided into four sessions, with ample 
time for formal and informal discussions, including extended poster sessions.

For more information and Registration Form, see:

S1. Emergency strategies: turning theory into practice
S2. Eruption alerts: uncertainty and the responsibility of scientists
S3. Eruptions without warning: responding to volcanic hazards
