******************************************* Volunteer field assistants needed for research at Masaya volcano, Nicaragua From: Glyn Williams-Jones <glynwj@xxxxxx> ******************************************* The Volcanology group at Simon Fraser University is looking for field assistants to help with ongoing geophysics and gas geochemistry surveys at Masaya Volcano, Nicaragua. Surveys of the active summit craters will consist of self-potential, soil CO2 and temperature mapping, dynamic and continuous gravity measurements, SO2 gas flux and digital photogrammetry. The volunteers will receive training in all these methods as well as exposure to graduate level volcanic research. While no specific volcanological background is necessary, spoken English and/or French is required and Spanish would be beneficial. The field campaign will be for the entire month of March (March 1st to April 1st). However, volunteers may come for periods of 1 to 2 weeks or stay for the full month! While we can not pay airfare to Managua, all living costs and field expenses will be covered.
