What is the Course on Collapse Calderas?
The IAVCEI Collapse Calderas Commission (CCC;
http://www.gvb-csic.es/CCC.htm) was created in 2008 to have a wider
and deeper understanding on calderas. It includes caldera geology,
geodesy, geophysics, modelling, subcaldera magma chamber processes,
volcanic hazard and risk management, economic benefits and environmental
research. Workshops were held at Tenerife, Canarias, (2005), Mexican
Volcanic Belt (2008) and Reunion Island (2010). In the Reunión workshop,
CCC started the 1st International Course on Collapse Calderas,
to give young researchers the possibility to deepen their understanding
of calderas. Venue
The 2nd International Course on Collapse Calderas is scheduled
for September 19-23, 2012, anticipating the 4th International
Workshop on Collapse Calderas (September 23-29, 2012). The Course is open
to undergraduate students, Ph.D. candidates and post-docs. It is held at
Hotel Columbus, in Bolsena village, on the edge of the Bolsena Caldera,
that is the most distinctive feature of the Vulsini Calderas District,
100 km north of Roma. Course outline
The Course consists of 2 days of theoretical lessons (September 20 and
21) and 1 day of field trip (September 22) at Bolsena caldera (see
schedule below).The main objective of the Course is to offer the students introductory modules concerning formation and development of collapse calderas and principal products associated to caldera-forming eruptions. Following these modules, we will focus on the topics that can best be applied in the coming workshop, such as numeric and analogue modeling, unrest episodes, monitoring, and the case study of Bolsena. The course ends with a day on the field to visit examples of deposits and structures related to caldera-forming eruptions. The course introduces to the state-of-art of research and monitoring techniques on collapse calderas and will be held by internationally-known scientists from several research institutes.
Costs
The fee for participants to the Course is 300 euros. It includes
transportation from Rome to Bolsena on the 19th and from
Bolsena to Roma on the 23rd, all meals and accommodation from
the evening of the 19th to the morning of the 23rd
(4 nights), 1 day of excursion, the registration, the course volume and
