Big Ideas in Volcanology
From: William Rose <raman@xxxxxxx>
*****************************************************************************************
As part of an effort in a Graduate Volcanology Class offered this
past semester, we want to share with you a start on a new web effort
that aims to define the "Big Ideas in Volcanology".
This idea came from an effort by the Earth Science Literacy Initiative. We
hope to define some ideas from volcanology that need to be discussed
more broadly, ideas that are currently scientifically relevant. The
purpose is to broaden volcanology and improve it, while communicating
its important ideas. We have set up the class effort as a crude first
step, and are hoping for the comments and discussion of the whole
volcanology community. The website is still quite crude, made up of
parts done by different people. We present it as a work in progress.
Please
visit our website and leave your comments and suggestions through the
VHub Group called "Big Ideas of Volcanology" a group open to all.
Looking
forward to your comments and discussion---is this something worth
pursuing? What big ideas are misguided, misrepresented or omitted?
Cheers
Bill Rose
